New Zealand four-piece The Beths have announced the release of a new album, Expert in a Dying Field, which will be out on September 16 via Carpark. They have also shared a video for the album’s lead single, “Silence is Golden.” View the Callum Devlin-directed video below, along with the album’s tracklist/cover art and a full list of the band’s upcoming tour dates.
