“The third album from the New Zealand quartet blends openhearted lyrics about post-breakup regret with a sugar-rush immediacy and a craftsman-like attention to detail.”
“Expert In A Dying Field is a bundle of joy from The Beths”
“New Zealand indie-rockers push the envelope”
“The New Zealand four-piece remain among the most dependable voices in indie rock on sharp 3rd LP”
“If not for the occasional oddly-timed vocal melody and musical foray exposing The Beths’ undeniable skillset, there is little to suggest the band’s formation occurred while its members were studying jazz. The Aotearoa/New Zealand quartet’s two records prior to Expert in a Dying Field (Future Me Hates Me and Jump Rope Gazers) dealt largely in scuzzy guitar tones and self-effacing, whip-smart lyrics”
