Album Review: Haim, “Days Are Gone” (2013)
The 80’s were a great time for music, right? If you’re nodding your head in agreement, then Haim’s debut album, “Days Are Gone” is probably perfect for you.

Pharrell Williams has already cemented himself as a brilliant producer, and no expense is sparred on his own album; each song is perfectly polished, with beats that’ll just want to make you dance.
I never thought I’d say this, but I actually really miss the Twilight franchise. I’m not talking about the movies, because we all know they were awful (though I will admit to missing Robert Pattinson, but that’s another thing entirely), but I miss the soundtracks. Each…
2013 was an interesting year in music for me. There were tons of big releases, and quite a few from some of my favourite artists. Oddly enough, though, hardly any of the albums released really impressed me. I spent a good portion of the year…
