Elsewhere, there's substantially more 70s and 80s soft rock than 90s R&B the longest shadow is cast by Fleetwood Mac.
Haim days are gone torr 320 free#
Despite the presence of Usher producer Ariel Rechtshaid in the credits, only the admittedly thrilling My Song 5, with its pulverising bassline and bursts of metal guitar in the manner of En Vogue's Free Your Mind, lives up to that advance billing. Indeed, it's perhaps a little too appealing for its own good: listening to Days Are Gone, you start to conclude it might have had more to do with wishful thinking than Haim's actual sound. The musical pitch laid out in early articles about Haim was that their sound blended the lusciousness of 70s and 80s soft rock with the rhythmic toughness of 90s R&B. Middle sister Danielle previously worked as a session guitarist, bassist Este has a degree in ethnomusicology, and their four singles to date – pristine and sun-kissed and very Californian – have been lauded by everyone from Jay Z to Mumford & Sons. Three twentysomething sisters, they are blessed not merely with personality – they look good, and give raucously entertaining interviews – but with what an old jazz musician would refer to as "chops". If such a thing as a racing certainty can exist in the current musical climate, Haim look like one. Perhaps the record company's eagerness is understandable. Days Are Gone was refined and tweaked by the Haim sisters under pressure to get it released, but given that it arrives barely a year after the band's debut single, that possibly tells you more about their label's sense of urgency than the LA trio's painstaking perfectionism: we're not exactly dealing with the protracted gestation of Kate Bush's Aerial here. T he title of Haim's debut album apparently refers to the amount of time it took to make.
