Dzięki dla wszystkich, którzy pomagają tworzyć to zestawienie. W niektórych wypadkach datę premiery należy traktować jako orientacyjną, podawaną z dokładnością do tygodnia w jedną lub drugą stronę, datą wyjściową był dla mnie dzień premiery europejskiej (zwyczajowo poniedziałek – w USA wtorek, w Polsce coraz częściej piątek lub sobota). Days Are Gone is pop music for the alternative fans, and alternative music for the pop fans.Źródła danych: Brainwashed, RYM, „Q”, „The Wire”, Amazon, Bleep, Boomkat, Juno, Insound, Merlin, Serpent, Psychodelicje. HAIM have something here, they just need to work on their sound. 'If I Could Change Your Mind' may very well be a number one hit, in 1986.

It's a real shame, because parts of Days Are Gone are promising. The three sisters certainly don’t have the audacity of The Shaggs, the song-writing and musical quality of Jessie Ware, or the vocal distinction and artistry of Kate Bush. Days Are Gone would fit in a collection alongside Maroon 5, Little Mix, and dare I say it, One Direction. They've failed to grab the wrists of R&B, as their electronics are minimal and mostly bass related. HAIM can't help falling down this hole, as the genre is leading them in to a novelty. Days Are Gone isn’t a bad album, it's far from it but plenty of this album is a drag, except the standout tracks which all happen to be singles: 'The Wire', 'Forever' and 'Falling'. HAIM have potential, but if they don't change up their musical direction, then they'll be left to rot in the future, like Biff in Back to The Future II. HAIM take this influence and attempt to replicate the alternative synthpop / soft rock sounds with the popular factor of a girl group with three vocalists: Sugababes, TLC, and Destiny's Child.

Fresher Sounds - The best new music - 20/08/19īush is plastered all over Days Are Gone, she combined alternative and popular music in the 80s, just as Ware is doing with her own music today.Fresher Sounds – The best new music – 13/08/19.Even the self-titled track sounds like a Jessie Ware carbon copy, and that’s because Ware helped write it. Strangely familiar sounds on 'Go Slow', (essentially Kate Bush's 'This Woman’s Work'). There's delay on beats which would sound better without. HAIM share lead vocals, but neither one of them is stronger - It's all rather simple and passive. The guitars are well produced and the overall feel of the album is: 'fun' but essentially HAIM lose out with in their inability to create original recordings. They're drawn out, featuring basic instrumentals with no real kick or twist. Days Are Gone has tracks that belong in the 80s, and should be kept there 'Forever' is one of them, 'Honey and I' is another. HAIM's biggest threat isn’t approval, companies have covered that for them (Roc Nation,) it's whether or not their music will age well. This has been done before, and has been done better.

HAIM have their influences and lyrics tied up neatly, it's just the overall feel of the music that begs serious questions of legitimacy. It reflects their lacklustre debut album Days Are Gone. The trio of sisters looked lost on stage, with no bass, no strings, and no emotion. 3/5 HAIM performed to the awkward face of David Cameron on the Andrew Marr Show.
