DIECAST To Embark On Headlining Tour, Shoot New Video

December 18, 2004

The Boston-based quintet DIECAST are set to embark on a headlining U.S. tour alongside THE HOODS and WINTER SOLSTICE immediately following their stint on the Heavyweights of Hardcore tour. The trek kicks off on Jan. 20 and runs through Feb. 10. The group's highly acclaimed new album, "Tearing Down Your Blue Skies", is now available. A new video for the track "Rise and Oppose" will be shot by Kevin Leonard (HIMSA, WALLS OF JERICHO) on Jan. 19 and look for it to makes it debut in late Feb.

DIECAST just wrapped up a highly successful run on the Radiotakeover.com tour alongside E.TOWN CONCRETE, DEVILINSIDE and TWELVE TRIBES. Jeremy Wooden (bass) checks in with the follow tour wrap-up: "We just got back from the Radiotakeover tour with E.TOWN CONCRETE, TWELVE TRIBES and almost DEVILINSIDE. It was amazing and we had a blast with all the bands. It started off slow with smaller shows, but all the kids who went out made us all feel like we were playing in front of thousands of fans. A lot of kids came up to us after the set saying that they were a bit skeptical about our singer change and new material (mostly due to Internet gossip) but after seeing us live said we were way better than we've ever been. Stand out shows on the tour were definitely, New Jersey, Massachusetts, New York (Albany and NYC) and Pennsylvania (Allentown and Philly).

"Thanks to the promoters (minus 2 or 3) who treated us very well, fed us, drank with us, etc. We'd also like to thank everyone who came out to interview us on the road. Except for the two shit-bags who decided to piss all over the sofa and our singers bag (your lucky I'm a pacifist now),you were all great to us. We also got a Monster energy drink sponsorship on the road, so that kept us nice and perky for the long drives.

"Well, we are home to spend time with family and enjoy the holidays and then it's back on the road in January with legends HATEBREED and AGNOSTIC FRONT. I've also been informed that Tony and Mike from DEVILINSIDE will be getting something new together so be on the lookout, those guys are amazing musicians and great guys. Have a great holiday and we'll see you on the road soon."
