The Girl In That Gotye Song Loves The Dillinger Escape Plan

By now, whether you like it or not, you’ve probably heard “Somebody That I Used To Know” by Belgian artist Gotye. Already a hit in several other countries, it’s one of the biggest songs in the nation right now and it pretty inescapable right now (trust us, we’ve tried). At any point, the girl that sings on the song, Kimbra, recently gave a shout-out to The Dillinger Escape Plan via Twitter. When a fan made the seemingly left-field request that the New Zealand singer cover DEP’s “Black Bubblegum,” the New Zealand songstress replied “Love Dillinger! Seen the three times, ha. Such an explosive band.” Might this lead to a collaboration on the next Dillinger Escape Plan album? Doubtful, but then again, you never know with Dillinger – collaborations have been confirmed via Twitter with DEP before. In the meantime, Kimbra is on tour with Gotye in support of her debut album. Because we like to torture people, we’ve included a link to “Somebody That I Used To Know” after the jump.
