Haste the Day premiered today the video for the song Stitches on their MySpace page. Stitches is the first single off the band's new CD Pressure the Hinges.

Shot in Los Angeles, California with director Dan Dobi (Bleeding Through, Cannibal Corpse) at the helm, the video shows a powerful band performance with undercutting images between two different stories. Both stories have the same theme; however each story has an individual feel, characters and problems.

Stitches was written by Haste The Day members Brennan Chaulk and Stephen Keech and Keech states what the inspiration behind it is, “Everyone knows at least one person in their life who destroyed their life with drugs or alcohol. The song is about the need of intervention from a loved one (friend or family member), and the use of five words that can change that person’s life: you're worth more than this. Sometimes we, as the loved one, have a hard time saying those words creating stitches in our mouth.”

Haste the Day will be headlining one of the stages at the Warped Tour starting next month and here are the band's June tour dates:

Jun 15 2007 8:00P Ichthus Festival Wilmore, Kansas
Jun 29 2007 8:00P Pomona Fairplex Pomona, California
Jun 30 2007 8:00P Seaside Park Ventura, California
