Vinyl Singles

The Beths debut EP - available for the first time on Vinyl. This EP is the prequel to their debut album Future Me Hates Me which is much loved at Rough Trade Shops.

The Beths’ Warm Blood is a strong contender for the catchiest record you’ve never heard. Formed when four jazz students at the University of Auckland bonded over their shared love of the pop-punk sounds of their youth, The Beths bring new energy to the genre. This 5-song debut EP, a deliriously pleasurable statement of purpose, comes crammed with enough blissful hooks to carry through mostbands’ careers.

Listeners for whom the tag “New Zealand indie rock” brings to mind the Flying Nun sound of bandslike The Clean and The Chills may be surprised to find Warm Blood’s five unstoppable tunes landing closer to artists like Slant 6 and The Breeders. The nimble guitar work here moves from heavy riffing reminiscent of Sleater-Kinney to hazily bending lines that would make Stephen Malkmus and Mary Timony beam, while the joyous vocal harmonies from all four members bubble and swell to ecstaticcrescendos that channel The Zombies’ Odessey and Oracle.

With impeccable production from guitarist Jonathan Pearce and stellar musicianship across the board, Warm Blood is a non-stop delight. Tracks like leadoff track and first single Whatever, the ridiculously addictive standout Idea / Intent, and Rush Hour 3, a playful ode to romance in this era ofdownload-and-chill franchise films, take delight in the challenge of breathing new energy into the limitations of the 3-minute pop song.
