Diecast Guitarist Report From Napalm Death Tour
Diecast are currently in the midst of a highly successful European tour alongside Napalm Death. Jon Kita (guitars) checks following report from the road:
We are currently touring Europe for the second time this year and it has been amazing thus far. Napalm Death, Do Or Die, and End Of Days have all become close friends over the last month and a half. When you sleep head to foot, head to foot, and you open the curtain and there is an unidentified-half-naked-man, it's hard not to get used to one another. The shows have been beyond belief. We have to thank the Napalm Death fans for being so receptive to us. It has made the tour even more rewarding. The only thing that is different this time around is that it is so fucking hot. I love it, but it makes for 7th circle of hell like weather conditions inside the shows. That has been a good test for us, and from now on I think it would be a good idea to have band practice in a Boston University locker room in order to replicate the proper relative humidity levels.
The festivals have been amazing and it feels like we are Metallica when we play on a stage you could land a plane on. I'm afraid this computer is going to over heat in the 95 degree heat and spit battery acid all over my body so I will wrap this up. To everyone that has attended the shows so far, THANK YOU. Europe feels like a second home to us. Hopefully we will join the ranks of John Tesh and David Hassellhoff and be able to come back to Europe on a regular basis and play again and again to demonstrate how much we appreciate the support. We'll be back in the U.S. soon, but we won't forget everything you guys have done for us here in Europe. Take it easy everybody.
Be sure to request their new video for "Rise and Oppose" from their critically acclaimed album, Tearing Down Your Blue Skies, now on Fuse's Metal Asylum and MTV2's Headbangers Ball. Diecast are also excited to announce they will be back in Farmington, NM on Saturday July 31st at Big City Night Club, to bring the onslaught once again. The group sold out the 500 + capacity venue the last time around and due to popular demand they were forced to play a second set that same night to accommodate the people that got shut out the first time around.

Right : all is correct :-) ... I saw End of Days, Diecast and Napalm Death yesterday @ Matrix Club, Prague .... it was extremely hot inside, and the bands were terrific ! How they all managed to give so much energy in such non-airconditioned conditions I really wonder. Hats off ! Great gig, people who made it to Matrix (this weekend there was also extreme fest at Trutnov, so lots of people complained about the impossibility to combine both events) were absolutely excited about it ! And of course, so were I. :-)
