Haim - Women In Music Pt. III (June 26, 2020) Album • Page 10

"3am" OH MY GOD

 

Sucks I don't connect with it anywhere near as much as others here

 

This is great. Not sure I like anything here more than the best stuff from Days Are Gone but front to back it’s definitely their best album. Really great.

 

Just picked up my copy of the vinyl. It’s cut at 45 which is a nice surprise. it sounds really good.

 

Whoa that's pretty cool, I don't have any LPs that do that, just singles

 

wtf this is amazing

 

The guitar in FUBT gives me massive Prince vibes.

 

Pretty sure they’ve cut all their LPs at 45. I know FJM does as well. At least on a few of his records.

it’s relatively common but sometimes isn’t cost effective because it generally pushes everything to a double LP.

 

Wow this is so good. Definitely the most varied their sound has ever been but still distinctly Haim. There’s quite a few songs on here that don’t really sound like much they’ve done before. Basically rectifies my issue with the last one.

I’m usually whatever about old singles tacked onto the end as “bonus tracks” but it’s got a cool effect here. Even though those songs aren’t even a year old, they feel like a victory lap after the end of the record. “I’m in It” and “Summer Girl” especially, I think they’re both already Haim classics.

It rules.

 

I like Gasoline a lot

 

I agree. Normally I delete bonus tracks if they’re included as part of the album, but I actually really love how they cap it off

 

Overall I enjoy this a ton more on second listen. Good stuff here!

 

Thought I wasn't really a HAIM fan but then I heard Gasoline and now I'm listening to the full album, and I think I might be a HAIM fan.

 

This is the album I always hoped they'd make - didn't think their first two worked that well as albums while having some really high points, but this is it.

 

good, now listen to days are gone!

 

from what i can tell this is the better than the last album? I'm excited then!

 

you needed ass well what's wrong with that
the R&B influences on 3 AM and Fleetwood Mac influences on Leaning On You
Another Try sounds like All That She Wants in the best way possible
when Haim said and I’ve been watching too much TV looking up at the ceiling It’s been making me feel creepy I felt that
holy shit Man From The Magazine
the scream from All That Mattered has to be a meme

I would say this is the best idea of what a Haim album is given their disparate influences

 

I get some Rubber Soul influence on this? I'm digging it way more than anything else I've heard from them. This is cool.

 

3am is an early stand out for me. sounds so late 90s/early 00s and I loooove it.

 

That's the one I haven't heard yet so ok I will. Maybe the 2nd album just wasn't a good starting place.

 

I really love Leaning On You, I know everyone keeps throwing out all these comparisons to 70s bands but that song very specifically reminds me of 39 by Queen which is one of my all time favorite songs

 

This album will be on serious rotation all summer for me.

 

3 AM rules but that intro needs to go

 

Which one has the alarm clock? That one is kind of annoying tbh haha

 

i like the 2nd album but yeah it’s a huge step down from the first
