Haim Officially Announce Album ‘I Quit,’ Release New Single

After a slew of summery singles and a cheeky, highly entertaining rollout featuring homages to early 2000s paparazzi photos, Haim have officially announced their new album. I Quit arrives June 20 via Columbia Records.

To accompany the album announcement, the L.A. sister trio dropped the new single “Down to Be Wrong.” It’s a slow-burning rocker of supreme self-preservation in the wake of heartbreak — one that quietly simmers in the verses, and builds to a cathartic release of reflections. “Red lights are up ahead,” Danielle Haim sings. “But I keep walking.”

The news of I Quit arrives directly after Haim’s headlining show at the Bellweather in Los Angeles on Wednesday, where they confirmed the album title and debuted “Down to Be Wrong.” They also performed the bluesy new track “Blood on the Street,” which Addison Rae came onstage for, supplying some killer dance moves.

Haim will release a video for “Down to Be Wrong,” featuring Logan Lerman, on Friday at 11 a.m. ET. The track follows the singles “Everybody’s Trying to Figure Me Out” — co-written with Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon — and “Relationships.”

I Quit marks Haim’s first new album in five years, after the excellent 2020 LP Women in Music Pt. III. Co-produced by Danielle and Rostam Batmanglij, the album, their fourth, is their longest to date, boasting 15 tracks. The cover was shot by their longtime collaborator, director Paul Thomas Anderson. In a recent interview with I-D, Alana Haim said the new album is “the closest we’ve ever gotten to how we wanted to sound.”
