Hailing from the nation's shipbuilding capitol Newport News VA. Coldcast fuses a "working class" ethic with modern American metal. Drawing on influences like Faith no more, Mr. Bungle, Candiria, Death (Chuck Shouldiner) Ozzy (of course Randy Rhodes!), Coldcast brings a unique mix to heavy music. Attention being focused on individual musicianship, and songwriting. Each member brings the very best his instrument can offer the song.
True veterans of the stage, Coldcast have been performing as a band since 2000. Proving show after show that "We LOVE doing this". Coldcast have played at national venues such as the NorVa theater in Norfolk VA, the Recher theatre and Club Mate in Baltimore MD. Coldcast have also opened for signed acts like Silent Civilian (Mediaskare) and Interlock (Anticulture). More recently, Coldcast played a showcase at the 12th Annual Millennium Music Conference (MMC12) in Harrisburg, PA. Coldcast have won numerous "battle" contests, including winning "Best band in Hampton Roads" in the 2007 Emergenza Worldwide battle of the bands.
Independently releasing their debut self-titled album in November 2007, Coldcast sold 500 units in 3 months. With cd sales on the rise, Coldcast are looking to expand into new markets via terrestrial/satellite radio.
