HAIM return with a sumptuous video by Camille Summers Valli for the first single from the sisters' first album since 2020.

It's Summers Valli's first promos since her acclaimed work for METTE in 2023 (including Mama's Eyes, winner of Video of the Year at the UKMVAs). As with those for METTE, the director employs her considerable powers here to draw the viewer into a powerful and intimate experience with the band's lead singer Alana Haim.

The video for Relationships brings us into the world of Alana and her sisters - and into the euphoria of Alana's affair with her lover, played by Drew Starkey. This is portrayed at a cinematic level consistent with a movie or high quality TV drama, and HAIM are clearly comfortable in this territory. After all, they have been regular collaborators with Paul Thomas Anderson and Jake Schreier.

But there is nothing in the sister's fine canon of music videos which is quite as frank and sensual as this, nor does it forget its function as a music video. The effect is stunning.
