"[1] Formed in Boston in 1997, Diecast was originally established as a four-piece group featuring vocalist Colin Schleifer, guitarist Nassim Rizvi, bassist Jeremy Wooden, and drummer Jason Costa.
The band recorded a self-funded and self-distributed CD sampler with Dean Bartolonis which included early versions of songs "Solace" and "Disrepair" with Colin Schleifer, Jeremy Wooden, Jason Costa, Mehdy Rad, and Jon Kita.
Diecast recorded their second full-length album, Day of Reckoning with producer Paul Trust in Florida during the summer of 2000, then embarked on a tour with Stretch Arm Strong, One King Down and Shai Hulud.
The album was re-released by Century Media in 2006 with a foreword written by Colin Schleifer, and three bonus tracks including a cover of Raining Blood by Slayer.
On May 16, 2006, vocalist Paul Stoddard announced that in addition to Jason Costa no longer being part of the band, bassist Jeremy Wooden, the only original remaining member, had decided to depart as well.
