Overview

  • The album's title 'I Quit' reflects letting go of what no longer works to create space for new beginnings.
  • Haim break from their earlier sound by blending pop, alternative rock, 90s R&B, dance pop and country across 15 tracks.
  • The opener 'Gone' integrates George Michael's 'Freedom '90' chorus and a 70s-style hard rock guitar solo to signal a bold new direction.
  • Danielle Haim's personal separation inspired the lyrical focus and marked the first record without producer Ariel Rechtshaid.
  • Some songs require multiple listens to resonate, and the band says the full set will come alive at their high-energy concerts.
