You can now watch the chat below.THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN headed over to the United Kingdom in early February to support MASTODON for a week's worth of dates before travelling to Australia for this year's Soundwave Festival. In a recent interview with Australia's Loud magazine, Ben Weinman stated about THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN's next album,Herman Edwards Eagles Jersey, "We're about to start working out ideas and we'll be doing that basically until we come to Australia. I traditionally come up with the start of most of the ideas and then myself and our drummer will kind of work on them and formulate songs and get the ball rolling." Regarding the band's songwriting process,Randy White Cowboys Jersey, Ben said,Lester Hayes Raiders Jersey, "You know, every time I finish a record,Patrick Willis 49ers Jersey, I feel like I can't make another one. I'm done. I have no more DILLINGER in me. Then after a year or two of just touring heavily on that music, it just seems to come naturally, to start working on new stuff." On the topic of how each THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN album is recorded, Ben said,Pat Tillman Cardinals Jersey, "It takes a while. Because one of the things that we try to maintain is a certain level of… we're pretty critical about how we record and the music we make. Sometimes playing those guitars parts takes hours and hours because not only do we have to get it done once correctly — which is difficult enough — we have to do four or five more overdubs. It certainly can be pretty daunting." "Parasitic Twins",Reggie White Packers Jersey, the new video from THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN,Bob Griese Dolphins Jersey, can be seen below.

The song comes off the band's latest album, "Option Paralysis", which was re-released last year in a "Paralyzing Edition" exclusively as a digital download.
