Preview Haim’s New LP ‘Something to Tell You’ With “Right Now” Video
Haim has announced the release of their first album in four years, Something to Tell You, on July 7th. The trio announced the new record on today, Thursday, April 27th and debuted the video for “Right Now,” directed by acclaimed filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.
“Right Now” builds slowly, starting with a skimpy, cymbal beat and a breathy, closely mic’d vocal. Haim add elements one by one: slabs of bass, ringing, distorted guitar chords and finally tentative piano. The band brings the song to a rousing close with a jolt of rat-a-tat percussion from two sisters.
The video follows the members of Haim around their empty studio as they take up positions at a variety of instruments. As the group told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe on Thursday, Anderson shot the video in one day “before he was going to work.” “You can really hear the room mics are really loud and us stomping around,” Danielle Haim said. “Paul was adamant about wanting to hear Alana click on her pedal. You can hear that click when she does it and you can hear our heels and we were like, ‘Wow, this Is crazy I can’t believe we pulled this off in a day.'”
