Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Don't Wanna Deal by Greg Puciato

Today's Metal Track is Don't Wanna Deal by Greg Puciato. Greg writes and performs everything but the drums. I remember seeing him with Dillinger Escape Plan at Lincoln theater years ago and thinking any moment he was going to jump in the stands and just start fighting people. He was so intense and ripped. He climbed on top of the tall speakers for part of the show which was like 15-20 feet in the air iirc.
