Haste The Day is an American metalcore band formed in 2001. Their name is from a line from the classic Christian hymn “It Is Well”, beckoning the return of Jesus Christ as the saviour and judge of the world.

Following a string of six successful albums, they broke up in 2011 before reuniting in 2014 for Coward.

Vocalist Stephen Keech said:

This band has become more than just a five member band. Every record is different. Almost every album was a different line up. Haste the Day became more of an organization than a band. Now, there have been nine different members. And all nine of us are passionate about the name Haste the Day. Since this record Coward isn’t actually us getting back together in a traditional sense, we are able to take the creative process past the roll of five members and come together as a larger group of writers and musicians
