The Beths Share Mother, Pray For Me
While the earliest transmissions from the Beths were energy-filled guitar pop at its finest, the opening notes of their latest single drop in a bit of a left turn…though that shows a willingness to take some risks on their newest LP. This one mostly operates in the most simplistic form, working with carefully picked guitar notes and a gentle vocals from Elizabeth Stokes. The track feels (and has been acknowledged) as if its more about Stokes own connections and understanding of her parents, particularly mother; it’s a relatable subject matter, as we all get tend to evaluate our parents and our upbringing as we grow. A quiet tune that adds depth to Straight Line Was a Lie, out August 29th via Anti.
