The Dillinger Escape Plan arrived on the scene with their critically acclaimed 1999 debut album, Calculating Infinity. A metalcore masterpiece and the only album to feature original vocalist Dimitri Minakakis, who quit the band in 2001, Calculating Infinity was called an “instant classic” by Pitchfork, who also said the album inspired “a new generation of mathcore bands.”
Since then the lineup has been a revolving door of musicians, bar Ben Weinman, and released a total of six studio albums, the most recent and final being Dissociation in 2016.
After disbanding in 2018, The Dillinger Escape Plan reunited in 2024 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Calculating Infinity, performing three shows at Brooklyn Paramount Theater, New York, along with several European dates.
