THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “Haim are back in business with I Quit, the fourth album from the California sibling trio. The 15-track LP was produced by Rostam Batmanglij and Danielle Haim, and radiates the energy of seasoned performers whose deep reverence for classic rock shapes songs built for the stage.
The band introduced the album with the first single and video Relationships. “What’s all this talk about relationships?” is among the questions explored by the sister trio of Este, Danielle and Alana Haim, who navigate the whirlwind of unexplainable feelings brought on by the evolution of relationships. The song features the band’s familiar mix of genres, offering a contrast to the album’s rock sound.
Coming on the heels of Relationships, second single Everybody’s Trying To Figure Me Out displays a driving rock influence, featuring a powerful percussive intro and steady guitar build — while being a contemplative exploration about feeling misunderstood. Finally, the third single Down To Be Wrong us a confident ode to self-preservation and prioritizing yourself. “Don’t need you to understand, don’t know if you can,” is the song’s final message, defiantly ending with “Red Lights are up ahead, but I keep walking.”
I Quit is the first new album since the band’s 2020 full-length Women In Music, Pt. III, which earned them a Brit Award for International Group. Women In Music, Pt. III received two Grammy nominations, including the prestigious Album of the Year recognition. With this nomination, Haim became the first all-female rock group to be included in the top category. Women In Music, Pt. III debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. Album Sales chart, as well as the Rock and Alternative charts and also entered the U.K. Album chart at No. 1.”
