It’s been a decade since Haim dropped their studio album Days Are Gone, and they’re celebrating its anniversary in style! The indie rock trio announced the 10th-anniversary reissue of their debut studio album and reflected on its legacy one decade down the line.
Este, Danielle, and Alana Haim recently set down with NME and looked back at the time when Days Are Gone first saw the light of day. Este told the magazine they had zero expectations for this album back in the day, while Alana added they didn’t really know how to get their music out there at the time and simply did the best day could.
“The only thing that we knew was that we were super proud of what we had finally created after being a band for six years at that point… So we put it on the internet with absolutely no idea what was going to happen. And it completely changed our lives,” Alana told NME.
Days Are Gone was originally released on September 27, 2013, and it produced singles “Forever”, “Don’t Save Me”, “Falling”, “The Wire”, “If I Could Change Your Mind”, and “My Song 5”. Haim went on to release two more studio albums, including their latest Women in Music Pt. III, and served as the opening act for such artists as Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Florence and the Machine.
