Press release –
HASTE THE DAY, the metalcore band that made a scene splash in the ’00s, returned in 2024 with the video for the new song ‘Burn.’ They also appeared at Furnace Fest that year. It was their first new music in nearly a decade. But they didn’t stop there. Not a chance! The band will release its new album DISSENTER on May 1 via Solid State Records. It’s HTD’s first album since 2015.
“‘Oblivion’ is a cinematic, apocalyptic metalcore track that leans into scale and emotion,” the band shares. “The song balances heaviness with atmosphere, creating a sense of finality and awe. Lyrically, ‘Oblivion’ tells an apocalyptic love story — grappling with loss, reconnection, and what it means to step into the void at the end of all things.”
HTD also announced a run of tour dates set for May. They will also appear at Louder Than Life in Louisville, Kentucky in September. All upcoming performances are below.

*Festival
Haste The Day conjure the sound of coming full circle. The Indiana-bred band rekindles the spark at the heart of their signature style by sharpening the edges, tightening the melodies, and amplifying the scope with cinematic ambition. Haste The Day have clung to their integrity since initially emerging at the turn of the century. Following Burning Bridges [2004] and When Everything Falls [2005], Stephen made his formal debut as the group’s frontman on Pressure The Hinges [2007].
