Mp3 of the Week: Diecast

For their new Internal Revolution (Century Media), Diecast upgraded their rhythm section and came out singing -- not to mention swinging. Their latest stylistic makeover moves them several rungs up the Mass-metal depth chart, retooling standard-issue hardcore with Eurometal's sleek, precision-calibrated dueling guitars and thrash-pop sing-a-longs where frontman Paul Stoddard sounds more Jeckyl than Hyde. Dudes in Killswitch Engage t-shirts will probably buy you beers if you play this on the jukebox. Soon to hit the road with Sepultura, Diecast play October 22 at Cabot Street Pub in West Springfield.

I can't believe how short these MP3s are. "bang, bang, rump!" and that's all u can hear. Your wordy reviews don't do these MP3 of the week JUSTICE. But, you do write them well. Kudos! -SDT
