Dreamer is the fourth studio album by Christian metalcore band Haste the Day. The album was released on October 14, 2008 through Solid State Records. A song from the album, entitled "68" was released on the band's MySpace on August 1. A second new song, the second track off the album entitled "Mad Man," was made available for download on iTunes September 9. The third song Haste the Day has announced the release of is "Haunting," which was posted on the band's Myspace on September 6, 2008. The final track on the album, "Autumn" is originally from Haste the Day's first release That They May Know You. They released a music video for the song Mad Man on February 24, 2009. This is the last album to feature Devin Chaulk, Brennan Chaulk and Jason Barnes (although Jason Barnes went uncredited; he had been fired from the band earlier in the year after having decided to become an atheist).

The album sold 7,700 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 68 on the Billboard 200 chart.[citation needed]

On March 2, 2010, the album was released digitally with new artwork and two acoustic bonus tracks.[7]

Trivia

  • The song "68" was originally called '68 Degrees and Chance of Thunderstorms,' but the rest of the title was dropped. The '68' is a reference to the song being in 6/8 meter. It also refers to the biblical verse in the book of Revelations, chapter 6 verse 8 which talks about a rider named Death that sits upon a pale horse and is given the power to kill one-fourth of the earth using hunger, earthly beasts, and the sword. Also, it is a coincidence that the first song on the CD is titled "68" and the album debuted at #68 on the charts.
