Over the seven years since the nucleus of the band first formed, DIECAST's intensely crafted sound has steadfastly evolved. Originally part of Boston's legendary underground (hardcore) scene, their output has matured into a mind-blowing composite of metal, rock and hardcore. Now, it doesn't matter whether they packing a small club or opening theatre shows for such genre titans as Slayer and Chimaira, the group always gives it their all and have set the standard for unrelenting metalcore. DIECAST triumphantly return with their much-anticipated new album, “Tearing Down Your Blue Skies” which was produced and engineered by Paul Trust at Dungeon Recording Studio (New Found Glory, Dashboard Confessional, Glasseater) in Miami. This is the group's first effort since their highly acclaimed debut full-length, “Day Of Reckoning”, released over three years ago. The new offering shows the group's progression as musicians and songwriters, while the addition of new vocalist Paul Stoddard adds a whole new feel to the band's dynamic sound. From full-on metal riffs mixed with chaos-enducing breakdowns to vocal melodies and massive hooks, DIECAST have broken the mould by creating a unique piece of music once again. Jeremy Wooden (bass) further describes the band's evolution: “I guess the first thing to say is that we're back and better than ever. We have spent almost two years on this material, making sure that every song was as strong and interesting as the next. Our new singer has allowed us to try things that we could never have imagined in the past. We tried to make each song have a different feel and have written some of our heaviest material and also some of our most melodic.” What sets DIECAST apart from the pack is their unabashed intensity and ability to deliver their material effectively through their live performances. “Tearing Down Your Blue Skies” is an album that neither metal, nor hardcore fans will be able to resist.
