HasteTheDay Bubar !

American metalcore act Haste
The Day has announced its
decision to disband. The group
has posted the following
statement:
"This is a very difficult
announcement to make, but
Haste The Day will be doing its
final tour February – March
2011. It has been an incredible
10 years and we want to thank
all of our amazing fans who
have stuck with us through all of
our changes and growth as a
band. If it weren 't for all of you,
this band would have been
nothing.
"There are many reasons why
HTD is ending, however we
mainly feel as though we have
created the best music we can
and believe it is now time for us
to move on to the next stage of
our lives. I remember when this
band started a decade ago, we
wanted to be like the Solid
State/Tooth and Nail Records
bands we grew up idolizing.
"We wanted to use our passion
for heavy music and the love
that God put in us to be a light
in the underground scene;
letting people know they are
loved, important, forgiven no
matter what, and capable of
using their gifts to serve their
fellow man. I never imagined
that we would be able to put
out five full length albums, tour
the world, and develop so many
meaningful relationships with the
people who came to our shows.
Without your support, this
wouldn 't have been possible.
"The 12 Days of Christmas will
be in cities that we will not hit on
our final tour so please come
out to say goodbye this
December. For our final tour,
which will also be amazing, we
are bringing our friends in My
Children My Bride, The Chariot,
and A Plea for Purging along for
our Farewell Tour all across the
US and Canada.
"We will be playing a great
selection of songs from all of our
records, including all of the fan
favorites, rarely played songs,
and a few songs that you guys
keep begging us to play live. I
have no doubt that this will be
the best tour we 've ever done
and we cannot wait to see all of
you and give you a hug
goodbye.
"We love you all, thank you for
everything you 've been to us,
and we can't wait to see you for
the last time in 2011! We
encourage you to keep your
inner flame burning and show it
off to the rest of the world!
"Much Love to you all,
Mike & Haste the Day"
