Since I first heard Haim's unbelievable Forever EP about this time last year I've embarked on a lone mission to avoid them as much as possible - a mission that is gloriously failing. Don't worry, I'm far from a Hating Haimer, quite the opposite, the underlying goal of this mission is to prevent overplaying of what will ultimately be one of the albums of 2013. Send Me Down was released as a B-side to the monumental Don't Save Me so I'm thinking it might not make the debut, meaning that aggressive repeat action is totally acceptable (although I have listened to every song I've mentioned so far as I type - abort mission, abort, abort!). Heralding from California the three sisters definitely have that you'reprobablynotreallythathotinthecoldlightofdaybutyourreallycoolandtalentedandinasoundbandsothereforeyou'rehot vibe going down, the one coined by the sax player in the Zutons, remember her? Of course you do. My only negative emotions towards Haim revolve around the spelling of their name. For me, Hamish, and my autopilot brain there's only one way to arrange the letters AHIM, and it goes Hami, not Haim, granted this is more than likely to be a very personal problem and one that many won't encounter but it's one that I feel should be highlighted -
