Your hoddler-in-chief is coming off a pretty long day at work and typing this hoddle from his bed, so it’s gonna be a short one.

But I ask: How can I fall asleep after Haim dropped their next single?

The three sisters released Down to be wrong which will be part of their upcoming album i quit, due to be released on June 20. Here’s the album artwork. They’ve gone back to their favourite director Paul Thomas Anderson:

For those of you keeping track at home, this is the third single Haim have released leading up to it. Here are the other two that have been covered by Hoddle HQ:

Relationships

Everybody’s trying to figure me out

Their latest single Down to be wrong follows more closely with their second, and hopefully Relationships is a bit of an outlier in terms of sheer pop.

I am also enjoying the lack of capitalised words here. Your hoddler-in-chief has never been a stickler for em.

Three songs into this new album and I’m a bit suspect, to be honest. None of them feel quite up to the standards of their previous albums. And this one especially feels very ‘middle of the road’.

But one thing I do not get sick of is listening to Danielle Haim play the drums. This, like Everybody’s trying to figure me out, definitely has that. So will we see more of this on the other songs? We’ll find out soon enough!
