BE PREPARED FOR THE MONSTER OF ALL NIGHTS!

The Dillinger Escape Plan have merely one prerogative: to go forward in ALL directions simultaneously. Following on from their ground-breaking 1999 debut full-length, ‘Calculating Infinity’ and the near-perfect pileup of craft and chaos on 2007’s “Ire Works”, The Dillinger Escape Plan have unveiled their latest masterpiece, ‘One of Us is the Killer’. It is consider by many the bands finest work and solidified the reputation the band maintains as perhaps the most formidable heavy music band on the planet.  Big Cheese called it “a masterpiece in the art of heavy rock music” and Terrorizer emphasized the “greatness” of The Dillinger Escape Plan. Critics declared the band “leaders in a genre of precisely one” (Metal Hammer, 9/10); “enduringly peerless” (Rock Sound); “operating at the peak of their powers” (Kerrang!); solidified the reputation the band maintains as perhaps the most formidable heavy music band on the planet. 

New York’s GLASSJAW, renowned for their unique aesthetic, rabid fans and constant musical transformations will be bringing all their anger and destruction to the stage for Australian fans; showing them exactly why this band is considered truly influential as hardcore artists. This is a band that knows how to deliver a blistering live set that will leave fans reeling for days.
