LA group Haim’s debut album Days Are Gone will be released on the September 30 through Polydor Records.
It’s a record that features songs that stretch right back to when the band first formed and songs written in the latter stages of 2012.
Opening on their 2013 spring EP release Falling, it’s smartly followed by the song that introduced them back in March 2012, Forever.
The Wire, a huge live favourite and forthcoming single, receives a slick production but loses none of the energy and passion that makes it so enticing on stage.
The sultry If I Could Change Your Mind is the first of four brand new songs that Haim are yet to have aired live, Days Are Gone, My Song 5, and Running If You Call My Name. Another regular live track, Honey&I is one of the many standout tracks on a record that is more than simply the sum of its parts.
A favourite at Glastonbury, the band who went down a storm at Reading Festival and will announce a European winter tour soon.
