HAIM

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

sounds more like be your own pet or something

i know i was joking

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.

...which apparently I didn't notice on the ep.

Am I the only one who has noticed the complete absence of pronouns on this album? Not saying, but just saying.

You mean second person pronouns? Cause there are plenty of me's and I's on there.

there are plenty of yous--rev u mean gendered pronouns?

Third person singular (human)
Y'all need pronoun school

err, yeah, I meant gendered pronouns. I should have been more specific.

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

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

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".

^^^^ Man I just looked at that post and had this crushing moment of self-consciousness.

Ha, I'm only really questioning the lead singer Haim tbh.

bored of them already.

i'm with you, rev.

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.

Oh shit, the typography in that is giving me a design boner.

omg

ok that's incredible

Is that shark double bass face.

this video is gonna rule

YES!

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

They're no Destiny's Child, that's for sure. The dance sequences don't really do much for me there. I enjoy them more playing their instruments, especially in live clips.

Had never noticed their green (lying) eyes before :)

That is really awesome! Wish more pop was that fun.

So good.

I like the facial expression on the guy playing the drums.

clapping is key

awesome

go haim

Love, love, LOVE this. I'm ashamed to say I hadn't paid enough attention to HAIM in time for the 2013 poll, but I'm definitely gonna be voting for this next time. I just love this band.

it's one of my favourite songs on the album but the video is nothing special, is it ?
the dancing is meh and the "stage" part has the same inspiration as the strokes "last nite" video, for instance (but less fun).
the clapping is good though.

it's got great lighting and lots of cool shots
