Dillinger Escape Plan Week: Fix Your Face

(antiMusic) Acclaimed metalers Dillinger Escape Plan have just released with their brand new album 'Ire Works'. To celebrate the release and to gain a bit more insight into the songs we asked bassist Liam Wilson to pick his five favorite tracks from the CD and tell us a bit about each. Here is Liam with today's song: Fix Your Face - If I remember correctly, this was the second song that we had written for the record. I can recall jamming on that middle part at sound check on the Between The Buried and Me tour we did in Dec. '05. I think we knew from the start that it would probably be the best opener for the record and that in some ways it was just enough of the old and enough of the new to re-introduce ourselves to the world, it served as the cliff-notes to get everyone in the class up to speed with where this thing we call 'Ire Works' was about to go. We went through a bunch of title changes, the working title being 'Snakeface' which was something Chris came up with and just ultimately didn't seem right to use. F*ck Face seemed a little too abrasive for everyone from the marketing side of things, especially because we were strongly considering doing a video for this song instead of 'Milk Lizard'...so, we settled for 'Fix Your Face' and so it goes. Having our former front-man, Dimitri, demonstrating how backups are done right on end of this track just brings everything full circle for us and also helps to bring that 'Old School Dillinger' vibe back, in case anyone had thought we'd lost our charm over the years. Hearing is believing so you can check out songs from the CD, tour dates, info on the band and more - right here
