"As far as the remix goes, we've all been fans of Dillinger Escape Plan for years, and I've kept in touch with Ben Weinman since we did a show with them in London in 2004. Once I found out he was working on remixes, I really wanted to see what he could do with some of our stuff, so when the band discussed the idea of doing a remix, he was the first person I hit up. Luckily, he agreed to give it a shot, and I'm glad he did. I'm really happy with how it came out, and honored to have had a musician I have great respect for, create his take on one of our songs."

Thrice's new effort The Alchemy Index: Vols. III & IV - Earth & Air will see an April 15 release date.

Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan recently revealed to MTV.com that Tool plan to begin writing their new album shortly. "The music always comes first," Keenan said. "We all get in a room, shut out all the extra noises from the other people and what goes on outside the room and just focus on the four of us, where we are that day. And then we just start making sounds."
