The Dillinger Escape Plan to tour North America

The Dillinger Escape Plan

The Dillinger Escape Plan have announced an intimate tour of North America to take place in August.

They’ve named it the Limerent Death tour – which would appear to be the name for their sixth album.

The follow-up to 2013’s One Of Us Is The Killer has been produced by Steve Evetts, who worked on their 1997 self-titled debut EP. It’s to be released via the band’s own Party Smasher Inc label.

Frontman Greg Puciato said in March that the record would be “less accessible” than their previous work, adding: “As of right now it’s pretty weird. I don’t know if I would use the word aggressive – it’s just really a change. I honestly don’t really know how to describe it.”

The Dillinger Escape Plan’s North American tour takes place before they appear at this year’s Reading and Leeds festivals in the UK next month.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
