A collaboration between Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr Bungle, Fantomas) and The Dillinger Escape Plan. This four song EP is a wildly progressive amalgam of musical styles that combines the feral intensity of hardcore, the technical precision of metal, mind-boggling tempo changes and sonic textures usually associated only with experimental electronic music. Irony Is A Dead Scene pushes the limits of speed, composition and complexity. Perhaps the most extraordinary track is a cover of Aphex Twin's "Come To Daddy" which brilliantly and significantly serves to blur the distinction between "electronic" and "live" music. Reissued to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the original release.
