The Beths' Warm Blood is a strong contender for the catchiest record you've never heard. F ormed 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 most bands' careers. 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 of download-and-chill franchise films, take delight in the challenge of breathing new energy into the limitations of the 3-minute pop song. Vinyl comes with a download card housed in a single sleeve. Tracklist Whatever Warm Blood Idea/Intent Rush Hour 3 Lying in the Sun
