The Beths followed up their well-known 2018 launching album Future Me Hates Me with 2020’s Jump Rope Gazers, an LP that decreased the Beths’ normal uptempo output and shut off some fans. The album’s arrival in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic didn’t assistance matters.

You put on’t prepare yourself for unfavorable criticism in the manner in which you most likely should.”

Expert in a Dying Field, their 3rd LP, represented a recover for the quartet, with the album eventually landing on Rolling Stone’s 100 Best Albums of 2022 list. “The formula is being kept,” Pearce included. “But with this record, we’ve simply entirely leaned into what we believe the Beths is.”
