(Ok, check out defiant breakup song "the wire" for even more michael jacksonesque singing style and stevie nicks-like rhythm.) For this type of music, the first 4 songs are UNstoppable with an awesome display of songcraft. From their predilection to rock out a bit like heart or the bangles or the Jacko-like vocal tics of lead singer Este, both elements illustrated well on "forever", these girls bring the pop/rock with a splash of R&B.

I think it was a pitchfork article that brought my attention to how much their music seems influenced by music of 1987, or the late 80s to be less specific.

When these sisters nail a pop/rock song, they do so just as good if not better than female-fronted artists of the 80s like fleetwood mac and the bangles. The rhythms and melodies turn pretty repetitive by the end as well, which really doesn't allow the latter tracks to stand out the way they deserve. They get tiresome when listening to the entire album from start to finish. My only gripe is the repetitive loops on many songs, particularly in their choruses. It will be very interesting to see where the trio takes their sound on subsequent albums. Overall though, the sound on this album is both modern and unique, giving HAIM an edge in terms of the ever-evolving landscape of indie rock. In contrast, 'My Song 5' is a heavier and darker song with strange instrumentation that just doesn't do it for me. 'Running If You Call My Name' is a beautifully emotional track to finish the album on. 'The Wire' and 'Don't Save Me' stand out as eccentric and happy tracks, impossible not to like. But after a while, it's difficult not to enjoy their uptempo melodies, great lyrics and fine vocals. The pop hooks, the unusual rhythms and usage of typical rock instruments form an inherently modern sound that might not please fans of rock initially. The debut album from pop-rock trio HAIM is an album that slowly grown on the listener. You can include this album in your own chart from the My Charts page!
