Listen to new HAIM song, “Lost Track”

HAIM has premiered a new song called “Lost Track.”

The tune was influenced by the book Appointment in Samarra, specifically the scene where a character throws a drink into someone’s face.

“We were inspired by the idea of someone doing something so drastic to get out of a situation they felt uncomfortable in — just to feel something,” HAIM says.

HAIM is releasing “Lost Track” in connection with Alana Haim‘s cover shoot for the new issue of W magazine, photographed by filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson. The “Lost Track” video, which Anderson directed, is streaming now via WMagazine.com.

Alana, of course, also stars in the new PTA movie Licorice Pizza. Her performance has been nominated for a Golden Globe, Critics’ Choice Award and a BAFTA.
