Metalcore veterans Haste the Day are back with their first new song in nearly a decade, the incendiary “Burn.”
The single arrived today (October 18th) accompanied by a high-octane performance video. Watch and listen above.
“We wrote ‘Burn’ to be a metalcore thrasher with harmonized guitar melodies, an epic chorus, a crushing breakdown riff and lyrics about a broken system of justice focused on retaliation instead of restoration,” singer Stephen Keech commented. “Being the first song that we’ve released in nine years, we wanted to put our best foot forward musically but also address an important topic in today’s divided world: The more we try to tear others down, the more we destroy ourselves.”
Haste the Day performed at Furnace Fest earlier this month. Next up for the band, they’ll play a co-headline show with Oh, Sleeper at The Factory in Dallas, Texas, on December 15th.
Haste the Day is also working on a new album, planned for 2025.
