Just now getting on this bandwagon, was sold from the first thirty seconds of "Falling." Wow!

they're very tight live. SNL is tough to pull off. You can definitely see why the lead vocalist is the lead in that video.

I don't know if you were responding to me or not, but just to be clear I didn't mean she was the better looking one or anything, just seems to be the most confident performer.

finally bought this album the other day after playing the "Forever" EP over and over again. Excellent album, and how has "If I Could Change Your Mind" not been made a single yet? One of my favourites from last year, for sure.

It's the only Haim track on my ballot (my other favorites placed last year).
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 10 January 2014 20:05 (ten years ago) link
I'm sure I read somewhere that If I Could Change Your Mind was the next single.

Is "Go Slow" on the album mixed differently from the version on the "Forever" EP? It sounds subtly different, the vocals on the chorus are a bit richer-sounding.

This is like "The WIre" video except more honest lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0u4tpZFf5xI

this doesn't sound like haim tho
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 14 January 2014 14:54 (ten years ago) link
sounds more like be your own pet or something
i know i was joking
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 14 January 2014 15:00 (ten years ago) link
its more of a conceptual thing
Listening to the album for the first time (I bought all the early singles, but interest had waned by the time Days Are Gone was released). Most striking thing for me is the Pinback riff (Non-Photo Blue) in Go Slow.

Am I the only one who has noticed the complete absence of pronouns on this album? Not saying, but just saying.
― Emined - FAP God (The Reverend), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 03:49 (ten years ago) link
You mean second person pronouns? Cause there are plenty of me's and I's on there.
― MarkoP, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 03:57 (ten years ago) link
there are plenty of yous--rev u mean gendered pronouns?
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 03:58 (ten years ago) link
Third person singular (human) Y'all need pronoun school
― mambo jumbo (La Lechera), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 04:33 (ten years ago) link
err, yeah, I meant gendered pronouns. I should have been more specific.
― Emined - FAP God (The Reverend), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 04:37 (ten years ago) link
yeah i don't think this is surprising, my fav haim lyrics (the wire, if i could change your mind) are from the perspective of someone who's very much in their own head so it's all i/you hypersubjective stuff
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 22 January 2014 05:13 (ten years ago) link
I haven't really thought about their lyrics a ton because they generally settle for being serviceable to the song, rather than attention-drawing in their own right, but otm!

They're sisters therefore lesbians duh
― Bryan Fairy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 11:51 (ten years ago) link
I don't get any gender-attraction-ambivalence vibes from Haim but I like that "Honey & I" (my favourite track) is like a post-breakup "Wannabe".

Wow, I've been p underwhelmed by everything I've heard by these guys so far but Days Are Gone (the song)is p great huh? Pur cyborg pop, like a combination of Big Love and Strawberry Skies

My favorite song on the album looks to have a video just as good. Can't wait.

In a way, I'm glad that didn't place in the 2013 poll so it's eligible for the 2014 poll.

I love that they didn't fake it. They're not the greatest dancers but there's nothing ironic about their performance.
