That New Dillinger Escape Plan Song Has a Video; Watch “Happiness Is A Smile”

by | Apr 11, 2014

So we’ve mentioned a few times how The Dillinger Escape Plan have been performing a new song live called “Happiness Is A Smile.” The band previously had it available only on cassette and 7″ on their current tour, and the only versions we could find of it were low-quality vids on YouTube — until now.

Here’s the band’s new music video for “Happiness Is A Smile.” They’re out on the road right now with Trash Talk and Retox.
