Diecast

Formed in Boston in 1997, the band put out two well-received albums, touring with the likes of Slayer, Hatebreed, Napalm Death, and more. It was clear that something special was happening to the Hardcore and Metal scene in Massachusetts from 1998-2002 with bands such as Killswitch Engage, Shadows Fall (and more), and the band was thrilled to be part of something bigger than themselves. The bands buzz was spreading, and major labels showed interest, but vocalist Colin Schleifer decided to step down from the band. After an extensive hiatus, the band recruited vocalist Paul Stoddard. The band commenced songwriting, signed to Century Media Records, and put out their seminal ‘Tearing Down Your Blue Skies' album in 2004 (which was recently reissued on vinyl by M-Theory Audio). The band supported the release with tours with Agnostic Front, Napalm Death, Hatebreed, and numerous European Festivals. The band followed up with 'Internal Revolution' on '06, ultimately being their last. 2022 saw the untimely passing of vocalist Paul Stoddard.
