Cool. I hope they release an album of drum collaborations with Phil Collins.

hum. new album on the 27th !
at last after almost 4y...
It's a pretty long time for a second album !

(eheh, I just noticed I basically wrote the same thing last year... time flies !)

that drums teaser is not great, though... they're not REALLY good at it !

Lol not at all

they should've just used the last five seconds

Eh, none of them are drummers, they did fine.

sure and it's all good fun just kind of weird to do a video like that in an online landscape full of videos with impressive amateur drummers

I'm not sure if the video was supposed to be impressive or fun, perhaps neither

I just assumed they were recording overdubs for a track.

Pretty sure that's exactly how they recorded drums on the last album too.

aaah well then I just missed the point!
nm

I doubt it's a recording session since they don't wear headphones. Plus there seem to be a special effort in the lighting/set up.
anyway, I'll be glad to listen to their new album.

i don't rly like the song so much but this P.T. Anderson video is really excellent

hm yeah that is kinda whatever

there was a song in there?

very weird single choice

loved their debut album but i have pretty low expectations for the new one

I think the song has potential if they get the production right. I mean, it's nothing we haven't heard from them before but nothing wrong with that, imo.

Do we know who is involved in the production of this album?

ariel rechtshaid is credited in the video description

anyway, nice demo i guess, could use some embellishment

I get the feeling this could end up like the second Bush album

Kate Bush?

That song sounds a lot cooler once you loop in that earlier drum circle.

Oh shit, I posted that before the song got to the drum circle!

I get the feeling this could end up like the second Bush album

Haim and Albini together at last

Is this really the single? I can see it more as an album opener. Hopefully a fully produced version is much stronger but right now, this is a disappointment. The Paramore single is a thousand times better.

haim reportedly 'distraught' at prospect of selling six million copies of their second record

Hopefully a fully produced version is much stronger but right now,

right now

That drum circle needed to be a lot more powerful to redeem this nothing song.

i don't think it's the proper single since there's no studio version yet? really weird way to lead things, it's exactly the sort of song that doesn't benefit at all from all that ambient noise

Y'all are being harsh here. I'm loving this.

thought this was pretty cool. it's obviously an in-studio promo video i imagine the finished version will sound different.

a proper single is coming wednesday apparently

boring spaciousness, reminds of the latest harry styles in that regard

Yeah, this isn't the studio version and a proper single is coming on 5/3, album out 7/7

yet more evidence of 77 borad entering the collective subconscious

77 borad users have had the new HAIM album for months. They've been listening to it in there while we starve out here.

i don't think the problem with this song is the production as much as it is the fact that there's really not much of a song there

I think the album version will sound very different, don't know if that will improve it though

sarah mary chadwick's last album did this type of approach a lot better, this song is so great

I'm with Johnny Fever on this. Even as a demo that chorus hook is really instant. The video reminds me of when Rilo Kiley used to write great songs and then stick them at the back end of their albums with crappy Casio preset production.

man i love that guitar sound.

haim used have an actual drummer. with the very rock name of dash hutton! wonder what happened :(

Wasn't Dash only their live drummer and doesn't appear on any of their recorded output?

ahhh you could be right!

New single:

Kinda meh? I'm much more interested in the studio version of "Right Now"

i hate this band

I'm into it
