To Love Is to Live is the debut studio album by Jehnny Beth, some of the songs in which were co-produced with Flood. It was released in June 2020 on Caroline Records. The Guardian described the record as "a restless album that thrives on contrast: from delicate piano ballads to thrashing metal".[5] The album was released to critical acclaim.

Beth presented it as a collaborative album rather than a solo album, saying it was also a personal record. The record features several collaborations. Atticus Ross co-wrote and co-produced the opening track "I Am". Romy Madley Croft of the xx recorded backing vocals on "We Will Sin Together" and co-composed the tracks "Heroine" and "French Countryside". Joe Talbot of Idles co-wrote and sings with Beth the lyrics of "How Could You", while actor Cillian Murphy recites poetry on "A Place Above".
