HAIM

i wonder why it took so long if so few of the songs are new

Don't like the cover choice, but I took it upon myself to at least make it a little more in line with the singles that have been released so far.

yeah the cover's not up to much is it? i preferred the black-and-white-and-pink-scrawl of this, much more like a 'classic album'

I was hoping "Send Me Down" would be on this.

K, quick sketch since I don't have the actual font nor the cover photo with good quality

ha well that's amazing.

I tweaked Moka's just a teeny bit with higher res image and making the "days are gone" script slightly darker. I'll be using this image for my id3 tags when the album leaks/comes out for purchase.

Ah yeah that photo looks way better, good job JF.

:D

what a remarkably ugly cover (the real one)

if we all stick this on our Tumblrs maybe they'll change it; it's clearly better than the real thing.

I'm already using it as the definite cover in my itunes. I tried the real one and this alternate one and I much rather prefer the later one.

angel haze and ???

grimes

album is really good btw. Probably the best songs on it have already been released but front to back a really strong and consistent piece

yep

i think "if i could change your mind" is probably their best song

has it l£ak£d or have you guys got copies?

i've got a promo idk about those other bros

i don't think it's leaked

really disappointed that better off got left off, i think its their best

that's my least favorite song of theirs. v glad "go slow" is on this thing but i also rep for "send me down" and might've preferred it to its twin on the record "my song"

weirdo

love the Lindstrom and Prins Thomas remix of "Forever."

most curious about the title track which according to wiki has a jessie ware co-write.

!

A lot of the time I think Better Off is their best as well. Sorry to see it was left off.

mean but fun

I've been those guys once or twice, so I'm totally cool with laughing at the ridiculousness of it.

why'd she have to do j0rdan s. like that?

hahaha thought the same thing. did someone already say they looked the same on ilx or something? idk. but they kinda do

i like when he mouths "forever"

concept A-
execution C+

^^^

wont make me popular around here but that's basically how i feel about the band itself (except the remixes, which are all so good they make the originals seem kinda drab)

yeah, a little mean, kind of funny, not done that well

the video I mean

The band's execution could be better too, but I feel like it has been getting better and is now pretty close to awesome.

wont make me popular around here

somebody had to speak up max

Didn't realise when watching the video that the guy with the ring is Booth Jonathan from Girls. I always hated that guy!

Agree that the video does not work at all. There's something annoying about the over the top reactions of the guys and it's really grating when the Haim girls sing "I know that you're gonna be okay anyway" in that really insincere way. I'm aware I'm reading too much into just a video but it kind of put me off a song I really liked. I'm sure I'll get over it, just surprised how much I disliked it.

The video is pretty funny but the joke gets a bit repetitive. For some reason I like the song MORE now than when I previously heard it without visuals. Maybe the light-hearted nature of the video makes me perceive the song as breezy and light-hearted, whereas before that may not have been my response. Then again, maybe it's just a case of watching the video twice has enabled the song to grow on me (I had previously listened to it a few weeks ago about three times).

I'm not completely sure what the "joke" is tbh -- is it "give me a break 20-something brooklyn indie boy, this was obviously not some kind of 'forever' relationship?" Is it just funny because it's dorky looking guys getting overemotional?
