Dimitri Minakakis, lead singer and co-founder of Dillinger Escape Plan, has left the band to pursue non-music related endeavors.

Both Dimitri and the rest of the band would like to make it very clear that the parting was 100% mutual; and in no way due to dysfunction between members. Dillinger Escape Plan has not broken up, in the meantime, the band will be going on a small hiatus until a new singer is in place. There will be one more US show with the current lineup including Dimitri, which will be announced in the coming weeks.
