Dillinger Escape Plan on the early years, Mr. Bungle, Metallica & more (flashback)

As Dillinger Escape Plan announce the band are bowing out, we flash back to a chat with guitarist Ben Weinman and singer Greg Puciato shot backstage in Sydney in 2008. The band reflect on their history, meeting, working with Mike Patton and playing with Mr. Bungle on their first massive tour, New York hardcore, Greg and Metallica, injuries, playing at the At The Gates/Mayhem reunion show and much more. Listen to my 2016 interview with Ben Weinman: • Ben Weinman (Dillinger...

[@hwxvxdxvv788]

i've watched this interview three times, should I watch it again...

[@TheVoidwithChristina]

Yes! I appreciate you :)

[@ireworks2007]

the way greg describes anger as a "kids emotion" and sort of like a mask you put on to hide other emotions that are harder to deal with and display than anger is so real

[@sussychachi]

Mike is a titan

[@Riviere8281]

I really enjoy your interviews! the bands always seem comfy and open with you, also your questions are cool! Is so sad they don't want to keep going, really great musicians, cool people and so honest and true with their art..

[@TheVoidwithChristina]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it, and agree! But they did so many cool things and the songs live forever :)

[@FaderSemen]

That was a seriously entertaining interview.

[@TheVoidwithChristina]

[@jondubb35]

[@freyreldar6562]

Loved this, much obliged

[@TheVoidwithChristina]

Thanks for watching! I try and ask things that will always be relevant ... origin stories, etc. Stoked people are digging it eight years later :)

[@richidpraah]

Singer is super sympathetic

[@coreyazok2]

so sad knowing that they are done as a band now, even moreso after hearing ben say here that he could see them doing it forever. i really wonder what terrible thing has happened thats caused this tragedy

[@BeauFerchaud]

I don't think anything happened. If there was a tragedy I think they would have released the album and then not went on tour after it's release. I think it's their time. They are getting older, too. They can't do this forever, especially the way they perform these songs live.

[@TheVoidwithChristina]

They definitely haven't experienced a tragedy. They gave us twenty years of amazing music and killer shows ... it is mega sad this is the last run ... but lets remember how rad their contribution was, forever. :)
