CoC : Dillinger Escape Plan - Calculating Infinity : Review

Dillinger Escape Plan - _Calculating Infinity_
(Relapse, 1999)
by: Adrian Bromley (9.5 out of 10)

Few bands out there have ever really blown me away on record and live: Dillinger Escape Plan is one of the few. Hell, ask any CoC member who has seen them live. They slay all. Like a knife-wielding mugger in an alleyway, pummelling you black 'n' blue till you cough up your money, DEP never let you go till the satisfaction of knowing you'll be scarred for life is running through their brains. Heartless and showing no remorse, the band's latest full-length _Calculating Infinity_ (a follow-up to _Under the Running Board_) is a detonating time bomb of hardcore/noisecore/metal numbers ready to go off. Run for cover, 'cause with these guys on the loose there is no telling when you'll get your beating. Brutally powerful, this comes HIGHLY recommended. This is an experience.
