Bethany Cosentino - Natural Disaster (2023) [Official Digital Download]

Best Coast announced an indefinite hiatus a couple of months ago, and now bandleader Bethany Cosentino is getting ready to release Natural Disaster, her first-ever solo album. The LP comes out later this week, and we’ve already posted Cosentino’s early songs “It’s Fine” and “For A Moment.” Now, just a few days before the record drops, Cosentino has shared the title track.

“Natural Disaster” is a bright, shimmery power-pop jam that’s a whole lot more produced than what Bethany Cosentino was doing with Best Coast. It really makes use of her voice, too. Over chunky guitar chords, Cosentino belts out a catchy hook about the looming apocalypse: “This is the hottest summer I can ever remember ’cause the world is on fire / And hey, if we’re all dying, then what does it matter? / We’re a natural disaster!” That’s not catchy on paper, but it’s catchy when she sings it.
