Sister act Haim keep the spirit of Brian Wilson alive with an album of sunny California pop, writes Adrian Thrills
I Quit is ostensibly a break-up record, but even when Danielle, Este and Alana sing about heartache, they find it hard to stop the sun from breaking through.
Haim’s fourth album, I Quit, is ostensibly a break-up record, but even when Danielle, Este and Alana sing about heartache, they find it hard to stop the sun from breaking through. Bassist and eldest sister Este handles lead vocals on Cry, and Danielle seeks solace from one of her siblings on The Farm, a folky track in the tradition of the Laurel Canyon singer-songwriter scene of the 1970s. There are nods, too, to Parklife-era Blur (Lovesick Lullaby), Hunky Dory-era David Bowie (Change) and the special effects pedals used by U2 guitarist The Edge (Ghosts).
