Haste the Day is a Christian Metalcore band signed with Solid State Records from Indianapolis, Indiana, formed in 2001. Their band is named after a lyric in the hymn "It Is Well with My Soul". Even though the band's style is generally considered metalcore, the band describes their music as "rock and roll with breakdowns". Vocalist Jimmy Ryan announced his departure from the band in late November of 2005 after accepting a job with their record label, Tooth & Nail Records. His last show was in the band's hometown of Indianapolis on December 30, 2005.
