Some More Photos from Europe and Other Miscellany

I've added some new photos of The Dillinger Escape Plan from their recent show in Prague to the Spreading Like Wings Flickr account. They are a handful of photos I've taken from this location, where you can find more photos of The Dillinger Escape Plan and additional photos of Meshuggah and Between the Buried and Me.

Also, Dillinger Escape Plan's Facebook page is seeing to "some well needed updates over the next few weeks". If you're on Facebook and you haven't already done so, add yourself as a fan to the page and to the iLike application. Additionally, you can discuss upcoming shows, add photos and videos of shows and so on in the events section of the Facebook page.

New MySpace Posts by DEP and Greg

The Dillinger Escape Plan and Greg Puciato have updated their MySpace account with new posts which you can check out here and here respectively.

Nothing new really except for an update on the t-shirts (they're on their way) and for this update on Spylacopa on Greg's blog:

SPYLACOPA : We're putting the finishing touches on our first official EP, doing some last minute mixing adjustments before we master. John and I have been working the ears off of Mike Barile of Sweetfire Studios in Brooklyn, having him endlessly tweak mixes every day, but we're just about done. Looks to be a very limited release, we're probably gonna do some cool packaging options in really limited numbers, then make a more general digital release afterwards. Keep an eye out for more info on the Spylacopa page. I'm really happy with how this is turning out, John is a fantastic guitar player and musical mind who I'm very fortunate to be able to collaborate with, and we are just barely starting to scratch the surface of possibility for this very exciting and open ended project.

Discuss here.

Music Player and Image Rotator (Also, I need your help with collecting images)

As you can see, I've added a music player and image rotator to this site, which you can find in the sidebar (on the right hand side further down the page). The music at the moment contains about 8 songs by Dillinger Escape Plan, and a handful of songs by related artists (in that they have toured or are going to be touring together etc).

Now, with the image rotator -- I've realised that I've really neglected the SLW Flickr account, which was meant to be a cool photo pool for DEP photos. Also, it seems that no one has sent me any photos or links to photos, which they think would be good to include. So if you have some time, PLEASE either:

• Email then to me
• Help out in this thread on the DEP Forums, or
  
• Leave the links to the photos in the comment section.

At the moment I don't have the time to collect images, so all help would be greatly appreciated.

Feed Widget

I've added a feed widget (courtesy of Spring Widgets) to the sidebar of this site. It circulates all the latest posts from the MySpace accounts of DEP, Ben, Liam, Gil, Greg and Relapse Records. (To my knowledge, Jeff doesn't have an account, but if I'm wrong let me know.) This means you can view all of their posts from one convenient spot, without having to hunt them down on their individual accounts. (Likewise, subscribing to the feed of each MySpace blog is a good way to keep yourself updated.) I know it's probably a little bit small, but hopefully it should make it easy for you to find out when they've posted something new. Also, clicking on the text of a particular post in the widget also takes you straight to the original post.
