Well this is certainly exciting as fuck! Former frontman of The Dillinger Escape Plan, Dimitri Minakakis (you know, the guy who screamed his heart out on Calculating Infinity), John Adubato (Burnt By The Sun guitarist), Dave Witte (Burnt By The Sun drummer, Municipal Waste, a million other bands) and bassist Brett Bamburger (East of the Wall) have announced they have been collaborating on a new project called Argonauts. Do I even need to keep typing, or are you already on board?
There is no music from the band just yet, but their official Facebook page has this announcement:
The tail end of 09, saw four gentleman who did time in Burnt by the Sun, The Dillinger Escape Plan & The Postman Syndrome, that currently play in Municipal Waste and East of the Wall as well, start charting out sea changes. Argonauts have set their own course in heavy music, unconcerned with limitation or agenda. Hold Fast.
All of these guys are incredibly stellar musicians. In fact, the least known of the bunch, Bamburger, is one of the most exciting bassists to watch live. The dude is all energy and can rape the shit out of the bass. The rest of these guys already have cred up the ass, so there is no need to even talk about it. This has climbed up my "most anticipated" list. We'll keep you posted when more news about this killer all-star group surfaces.
