Future Lovers EP. Two years after the release of their last EP,
Future Lovers is a worthwhile sequel. Bad Behaviour starts with a riff that nods to the Clash s Should I Stay or Should I Go before launching into a singalong-worthy anthem that s entirely the Beaches signature sound, down to the call and response vocals between lead vocalist Jordan Miller and her bandmates.
True to the band s Toronto roots, the EP is filled with lyrics that reference recognizable local landmarks and figures including the Summerville pool, Mississauga, the King West neighbourhood, the Bovine Sex Club and Goodbye Honolulu member Emmett Webb. In Blow Up, Miller evokes better times as she recalls a night out in her hometown.
