Diecast may refer to:
Diecast is an American heavy metal band originating from Boston, Massachusetts, formed in 1996.
Formed in Boston in late 1996, 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's first release Perpetual War was recorded by Brian McTiernan (of Salad Days fame) and released independently in 1997. The demo was recorded to cassette and is now a collectors item.
In 1998, the band released their debut LP Undo the Wicked via Samson Records. The album marked the first recording of the band as a five-piece line-up with the addition of guitarist Dave McGuire who was replaced just after the Samson Records release with guitarist Mehdy Rad who had been involved with a pre-Diecast version of the band.
After the departure of guitarist and founding member Nassim Rizvi, his position was temporarily filled by a number of friends of the band including Buz McGrath and Ken Susi of the band Unearth. Jonathan Kita would be named the permanent replacement on lead guitar in February 1999.
Good people suffer the most fate plays it's twisted game.
Eternally lamenating I push right through the pain.
You did not deserve the weight that you were brought to bear.
If I could've kept it from you I'd trade places.
Life is fading. Pulse weak.
Heart stops beating.
Not your time search for some kind of hope through all the blood and tears.
Vehicle is battered and burned yet you still live.
Through the tears through the darkness.
I'LL STAY STRONG.
I'm overcome with feeling.
I'LL STAY STRONG.
In my heart your always there guiding and protecting.
ALL MY LIFE.
I cried as you lay there staring back at me.
I didn't know if you could hear me or even see.
I sat and reflected all you've done for me.
What you sacrificed I see.
I NEED YOUR GUIDANCE.
You helped me persevere.
Now I see you lying there.
Like a needle through my heart.
Like my life in disrepair.
Now is the time to live.
Now is the time to fight.
You must try to live.
So much more to give.
Cause I need you, you must live.
Now is the time to live.
Now is the time to fight.
I need you to live.
Can't cope with out you.
So much more to give.
