Full tracklisting for Option Paralysis

Written by Mike Pfeil. Filed under Uncategorized. Tagged , , , . 2 Comments.

According to now updated wikipedia entry for the album AND this wonderful Blabbermouth.net post, we’ve got ourselves a track list for Option Paralysis!

“Farewell, Mona Lisa” was premiered this past Christmas exclusively on Sirius XM’s Liquid Metal. A low-quality recording of the song can now be heard in the YouTube clip below.

“Farewell, Mona Lisa” will be made available as a digital single on January 19.

According to guitarist Ben Weinman, “I Wouldn’t if You Didn’t” was one of the last songs written for the album, “taking DILLINGER to places [we] have never gone before.” Meanwhile, “A Room Full of Eyes”, which Ben dubs as a favorite on the album, is “one of the most intense songs we have ever written.”

U.K.’s Metal Hammer magazine recently reported that “Option Paralysis” will feature a guest appearance by 70-year-old Mike Garson, who has previously contributed to DAVID BOWIE’s “Aladdin Sane” and NINE INCH NAILS“The Fragile” albums.

Vocalist Greg Puciato previously stated about the band’s new songs, “Wait ’til you hear what we’ve got for you now. The vibe when we recorded ‘Ire Works’ was defined by a feeling of struggle and hope and just staying alive in the face of almost falling apart, feeling triumphant in making it through the previous couple of years, and now the vibe is OK, now we’re just gonna fuck everyone up.’”

The track list for Option Paralysis is..

  1. Farewell, Mona Lisa
  2. Good Neighbor
  3. Gold Teeth On A Bum
  4. Crystal Morning
  5. Endless Endings
  6. Widower
  7. Room Full Of Eyes
  8. Chinese Whispers
  9. I Wouldn’t If You Didn’t
  10. Parasitic Twins
  11. Bonus Track for Japan: Chuck McChip

Looks like our good buddy PandorasSecret from the forums got a bit more information on the download cards that are available on the tour for $10USD/$15CDN.

“well I just got back from the show in Covington. Ben and Greg said if you bought that card then the 3 extra songs are up for download right now.
Im going to do it in the morning. Just wanted to let people know.
oh and also from gregs twitter:

GregPuciato: Covington, Kentucky goes OFF! Who knew?! Best of tour so far. Be back asap.” [Post here]

Then our even greater buddy m4tthew from the forums and previous heartwarming post said he download the three songs.
“Bonus tracks are remixes of Sunshine, Black Bubblegum, and Unretrofied. The Sunshine one melts faces!!”  [Post here]

So there you go guys, go to the shows, download the tracks and enjoy. No word on if Ben is responsible for the remixes or other artists but I am waiting to find out more.
Stay up to date with the tour by following twitter feeds, MySpace, Facebook, and of course Spreadinglikewings.com/news
