Thought it was a cover of Bootylicious before the vocals came in.

Yeah that rhythmic chug def has "Edge of 17" vibes, albeit thinner.

Feel like this new one is their best track to date

Very "Edge of 17" indeed !
And they also still have some VW gimmicks (the synth choir, the piano) which is normal since Batmanglij is on the production team.

now that's a bridge

Now that's more like it.

On the other hand I think it's been too long since the last time I heard a guitar solo from Dani.

Feels like they're moving into more refined territory

love this. leans heavily into fleetwood mac territory, but at the same time feels like a new landscape for them

if it exists/ever comes out this might be their best album

Pretty song.

amazing song, not too far from carpenters territory neither. sounds like a classic.

good shit

can't say why but i bet alfred especially loves this one

the intro of this sounded great perking up through the dying nasty chord at the end of the Ulcerate single

really nice chorus

sounds like a sheryl crow joint

an't say why but i bet alfred especially loves this one

The main guitar lick's cool -- yeah, a Sheryl Crow vibe. The verses are kinda blah?

i feel like u can tell which parts of this video were directed by a PT Anderson and which parts were directed by a HAIM

sounds like a sheryl crow joint

this is accurate.

interesting that they are kind of accreting a great 2020 album where I'll have listened to most of the best tracks in 2019

that's kinda how their debut rolled out

This sounds more influenced by songs in Tusk like “what makes you think you’re the one” than by Sheryl Crow.

wow yeah moka otm

lot of the weird fuzzy boxy disembodiedness of "the ledge" in the production

i’m really into this - the way it sounds, the writing, the video! danielle thumping the drums!!

so far it’s now i’m in it > the steps > hallelujah > summer girl for me, though i find something to enjoy in all of them

Correct ranking

it is the correct order. more generally, having drifted away a little after their early singles, i’m delighted at the quality of the recent stuff.

The Steps is one of the best three or four songs they've ever recorded. It is WAY UP THERE for me.

it's even better live

that ruled, thanks.

agree with monotony that "Now I'm in It" is still tops though.

“Our first show ever was at canters deli in 2000 so we decided we want to play shows at different delis across America to celebrate our new record,” Haim wrote on Instagram. “We’ve never done anything like this before so let’s all get together and eat some matzo ball soup and we’ll play you some songs live. Maybe some new ones??”

Haim’s D.C. show will take place on Wednesday, March 11. The location is currently unspecified,

From a Dcist.com article

Not seeing an email notice, so I guess no bagels and Haim for me today

No matzo ball soup either

helluva live verson

*version even

It's pretty nifty how Danielle and Alana keep trading that riff off back & forth between the verses/choruses.

that's a really great performance

they've now marked the three prior singles as bonus tracks on the itunes tracklisting (no other track titles yet except "the steps"), which is slightly disappointing i guess

Nothing off their last album did anything for me, but I love the The Steps and really like Summer Girl.

i still think the second album was really solid and underrated and better than the debut as an album even if it didn't reach the same peaks, but if they can keep up the quality of the singles for the whole album this should surely be their best

Their greatest hits will be pretty ace.

imo: jesus christ, this song

is that an arthur russell sample in the background or are they just evoking him really hard over some muted... miami bass drums?

this is dope as hell

wow this rules
