The Indiana-bred metalcore staples Haste The Day<\/strong> have announced a brand-new album titled Dissenter<\/em>, set to arrive May 1 via Solid State Records. It marks the band’s first full-length release since 2015’s Coward<\/em> and their first album in more than a decade, following years of dormancy and a slow-burn reunion that reignited fan excitement.<\/p>\n Alongside the announcement, the band has shared a visualizer for the new single “Shallows,” a track that finds Haste The Day<\/strong> locking back into the sound that once made them a defining force of 2000s metalcore.<\/p>\n “\u2018Shallows’ captures the core of what we set out to create on this record \u2014 aggressive, melodic metalcore,” the band explain. “Driven by high-energy riffs, heavy breakdowns, and a memorable chorus, the song balances nostalgia with contemporary influence. Lyrically, it confronts disillusionment, corruption, and the cost of defiance.”<\/p>\n Haste The Day<\/strong> first signaled their return in 2024 with the release of the standalone single “Burn,” their first new music in nearly ten years. That same year, they made a highly anticipated appearance at Furnace Fest, where the response made one thing abundantly clear: the demand hadn’t gone anywhere.<\/p>\n With Dissenter<\/em>, Haste The Day<\/strong> sound like a band coming full circle. The album rekindles the spark at the heart of their signature style by sharpening the edges, tightening the melodies, and expanding the scope with cinematic ambition. It’s a record that taps directly into who they were, while pushing forward together with renewed purpose.<\/p>\n Since emerging at the turn of the century, Haste The Day<\/strong> have clung tightly to their integrity. After early scene staples Burning Bridges<\/em> and When Everything Falls<\/em>, vocalist Stephen Keech<\/strong> made his formal debut on Pressure the Hinges<\/em>, ushering in an era that produced fan-favorite releases like Dreamer<\/em>, the seminal Attack of the Wolf King<\/em>, and Coward<\/em>.<\/p>\n The latter proved especially impactful, earning the band their second straight Top 20 entry on Billboard’s Top Rock Albums chart and a second Top 10 placement on the Hard Rock Albums chart. Along the way, they toured with artists ranging from Hollywood Undead<\/strong> to Norma Jean<\/strong>, cementing their reputation as both scene leaders and road-tested lifers.<\/p>\n
