The Beths - Future Me Hates Me (CD)
The Beths’ debut album, Future Me Hates Me, occupies a warm, energetic space between joyful hooks, melodic harmonies and lyrical substance, delivering on the promise of the Warm Blood EP from 2016.
Future Me Hates Me is a triumphant take on bittersweet punk-pop that’s crafted with conviction and potential, with songwriter, lead singer and guitarist Elizabeth Stokes delivering lyrics about everything from heartache to hope with wry understatement.
The album’s addictive power only gets stronger with age, as what seemed like just another good first album is rapidly looking to have the staying power of a classic.
From the moment you hit play it's impossible not to be swept up in the infectious energy and momentum of The Beths debut record.
The songs are catchy as heck, making this an album I can see future me returning to time and time again.

OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
