Either way this and Killer are both better than Miss Machine and Dissociation

I think this album is just the full dillinger experience. It has every aspect of the band rolled into one album. Its more concentrated and refined than Miss Machine, less Poppy than Ire works (great album gets too much hate). I have to give Killer more time and spins myself but its also great. Dissociation was the swan song more a revisit of a lot of ideas and past sounds.

The main thing this album has for me over the other Dillinger albums is that it has their best closer. So unique in their discog and is such a blissful (for their standards) way to end the album which grabbed you by the neck for the whole duration with how intense it is.

I dropped my CI 5 and am hoping to replace it with this one day soon...
From a pure enjoyment level this is tops now, regardless of whatever influence / lasting longevity CI has provided me.

@Mort: I don't rate or update ratings since 2018, too stressful.
Nowadays, my ranking is: Miss Machine>OP=Killer=Ire>Calc=Running Board=Irony Is a Dead Scene>>>>>>>>>>>>Dissociation. Everything slaps other than Dissociation.

Dissociation slander is no good. Honestly, I think all of their albums are great and all are around the same level of quality. Still have favourites though. Killer will never be topped.

yeah agreed with that take, they're all fantastic records, i just have a deeper connection to killer than any other of their releases.

They're all fantastic records, I just fucking hate Dissociation's production and I have other personal quibbles.

yeah i agree withg calc, dissociation's production isnt great. always felt that album lacks a certain bite. always found it pretty underwhelming (but it still has some bangers)

yup yup, Dissociation is miles overproduced and half the angsty melodic songs are colossal bunk. weird that an album otherwise so painstakingly true to everything that was always great about this band manages to swerve so far off-piste
midsection of Low Feels Blvd is probably the only (good) part of the album that benefitted from this
and the noirish break in Paranoid Shields could be replaced from a load of moments here (Widower, I Wouldn't, even Mona Lisa) and never thought of again; least interesting part of the song. Killer does have some exceptional bangers, but the songwriting lacks the spread or ambition of this one and largely stales up by the second half (+ the catchy/melodic trax are far weaker with the exception of Paranoia Shields)

Without the noirish break it would have made the eventual build to insanity less satifying plus 2/3 of those 'replacements' use piano and wouldn't have suited the vibe of the song at all. Dat horn is great. The second half I like as much as the first but that instrumental is...pointless.

I actually think Dissociation has one of the better production jobs in TDEP’s discog. Those drums sound massive
