Moe Train's Tracks Music Interviews

Dillinger Escape Plan (Greg Puciato) Interview at Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival - You never know what’s going to happen during a Moe Train’s Tracks interview, as Greg Puciato, frontman of now disbanded Dillinger Escape Plan, has his own interview with a dazed and confused girl, we speak about the camaraderie of the scene, how “DIY or Die” fuels his band, their new lineup, and plenty of other random greatness.

The Dillinger Escape Plan was an American metalcore band. The band was formed in 1997 in Morris Plains, New Jersey by bassist Adam Doll, vocalist Dimitri Minakakis, drummer Chris Pennie and guitarist Ben Weinman. The band's use of odd time signatures, polyrhythms and unconventional drum patterns became a staple of their sound, although later albums incorporated more melody, and influences from a range of genres. The Dillinger Escape Plan's final lineup consists of founding member Weinman, longtime bassist Liam Wilson, vocalist Greg Puciato and drummer Billy Rymer, alongside rhythm guitarist Kevin Antreassian.

The Dillinger Escape Plan achieved critical success, releasing six studio albums during its existence, the first being Calculating Infinity (1999), which has been noted by critics as a landmark release in hardcore punk and heavy metal music. The album has achieved a cult status selling over 100,000 copies, which made the band the highest-selling artist on Relapse at the time.[1] The Dillinger Escape Plan has won various nominations from award shows and publications such as the PLUG Independent Music Awards, Kerrang!, Revolver and Metal Hammer. In 2017, the band won an AIM Award for "Outstanding Contribution to Music".
