In this episode, Casey and Tom are joined by Ben Weinman to discuss The Dillinger Escape Plan’s 1999 album “Calculating Infinity.” We explore how writing technically complex music without a music theory background became a form of medicine for Weinman. Ben describes a group of guys who had thrown out the expectations of music as a viable career path, and how it was leaning into the "happy accidents" that made this album and dillinger work. Topics include:

11:02 - Artists in other genres being inspired by Dillinger
14:50 - Leaning into happy accidents are what made the band work
25:48 - Ben didn’t learn music theory
30:36 - What satisfied his brain during the record process
40:10 - The importance of having something you want to work on
46:39 - The band was challenging
