Haste the Day announces new album DISSENTER

After 11 years, Christian metalcore band Haste the Day is coming out with a new album.

On February 7, the band announced its first album since 2015, DISSENTER, which is set to be released on May 1 through Solid State Records.

The band released a music video for its first single, “Burn,” when the band came back from its nine-year hiatus in 2024. They would even make an appearance at Furnace Fest that year as well.

Last week, the band and Solid State Records released a visualizer video for its second single, “Shallows.”

“‘Shallows’ captures the core of what we set out to create on this record — aggressive, melodic metalcore,” the band says.

“Driven by high-energy riffs, heavy breakdowns, and a memorable chorus, the song balances nostalgia with contemporary influence,” they add. “Lyrically, it confronts disillusionment, corruption, and the cost of defiance.”

DISSENTER‘s expected track listing is below:

1. “Cycles”
2. “Shallows”
3. “Grave”
4. “Burn”
5. “Liminal”
6. “Gnasher”
7. “Heretic”
8. “Escape”
9. “Adrift”
10. “Teeth”
11. “Oblivion”

About Haste the Day

Haste The Day conjure the sound of coming full circle. The Carmel, 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]. The band unleashed a trio of fan favorite offerings, namely Dreamer [2008], the seminal Attack Of The Wolf King [2010], and Coward [2015]. The latter marked their second straight Top 20 entry on the Billboard Top Rock Albums chart and second Top 10 on the Hard Rock Albums Chart.

Along the way, they toured with everyone from Hollywood Undead to Norma Jean. Despite going dormant in 2016, they amassed tens of millions of streams and continued to resonate with an ever-expanding audience. As such, their 2023 reunion gig at the sold-out Furnace Fest was met with overwhelming enthusiasm. Returning with their first full-length release in eleven years, the musicians tap into who they were and push forward together on their seventh LP, Dissenter [Solid State].

Haste the Day’s current roster comprises of Stephen Keech (lead vocals, also of New Day Awakening and As Cities Burn), Brennan Chaulk (rhythm guitar/clean vocals, also of Beyond Oceans), Scott Whelan (guitar, also of Phinehas and Sleep Still), Dave Krysl (lead guitar, also of New Day Awakening), Michael Murphy (bass/backing vocals), and Giuseppe Capolupo (drums/percussion, also of Once Nothing, Demise of Eros, Gypsy and His Band of Ghosts, and The Devil Wears Prada).
