all time favorite band. their entire catalog is so clever. Everyone always has a favorite band and always says they are the best.. dillinger has one of the most diehard cult following fans ever tho and we all pretty much say there is a moment when their music just "clicks" in your head and you start to really hear and understand what they are doing. They open a ton of doors in the evolution of peoples' music preference and understandings.

@@OwenAlec For me, they're the musical equivalent of a rabbit hole. I discovered them very late (after they called it a day), hearing, and liking, the likes of Milk Lizard, Nothing's Funny, and Mouth Of Ghosts. From there, I trawled their albums, discovering, amongst the chaotic assaults, that the band had some pretty commercial/non-challenging stuff (Parasitic Twins, Widower, Black Bubblegum, unretrofied, Dead As History, etc). Within months, I was exploring the albums more deeply, falling for Phone Home, Prancer, and Sunshine The Werewolf once I gave them my full attention. It was only a matter of time before I noticed how incredible the drumming is on When I Lost My Bet, or how ferocious the guitar riffs are throughout We Are The Storm. There are even some experimental electronic numbers among the blistering fury (Dissociation, Fugue, Crutch Field Tongs, etc), and of course, genre-benders (Sick On Sunday, When Acting Like A Particle, etc). They're nothing, if not surprising. Stick with them, and see how far you end up going...

If you listen to them live they're extremely tight and in sync.

As much as I love Billy Rymer who plays here, their old stuff with Chris Pennie is just.... Crazy. His drumming is what got me hooked on dillinger first, and easily got them to be my favorite band of all time.

@oneoftheseshapes I don't agree, but the albums with Chris absolutely set the standard. The run of albums with Billy Rhymer were the most consistent and solid in their entire discography to me, but Chris Pennie is out of this world. I can't say as a whole they were better just because of him because their evolution itself was a ride to be a part of. I started listening to them with Calculating Infinity and they never disappointed once - Ire Works being an understandable departure at the time. As soon as I listened to Option Paralysis I wasn't worried about DEP without Chris Pennie anymore. If anything the last three full albums are DEP to me, and the first three albums + EPs were them establishing their sound.

Funny that you should say that it sounds 'all over the place', but probably isn't as lead guitarist Ben Weinman once said in an interview that a lot of DEP music may sound chaotic, but it's actually carefully planned and everything is exactly where it is meant to be.

D.E.P. are an all-time favorite band for me. Waaaay too hard for most of my friends, but like with Meshuggah the drumming just captivates consistently. See also Gojira.

Thanks a lot for this! And you managed on the first listen to hear stuff I haven't manage to hear in 10 years (the bottle sounds, I never really paid attention to that)! :D I have been listening to them for more than 15 years now and still I hear something new in their songs now and then, it is incredible. I discovered them with their album Miss Machine in 2004 and I liked them first for their incredible display of energy, it felt visceral and cathartic, but after some time you start noticing how refined their music is. They basically invented their own genre called Mathcore and have influenced so many bands in the Core scene but also in Prog and even Black Metal bands got inspiration from them. I hear in Jinjer some TDEP influence for example. Thanks a lot for checking it out and giving your opinion on it, it is a pleasure to watch you reactions as usual :)

@@oddunb6190 while I do agree with you, Mathcore is kind of an already established Subgenre, with many of the bands in this subgenre sounding similar so I think in this instance it is perfectly fine
