Our Take

Ah, Parquet Courts. The band that somehow manages to make dancing feel like an intellectual exercise. Their latest album, "Sympathy For Life," is a joyful romp through the chaos of modern existence. From the moment the first notes of "Walking at a Downtown Pace" hit your ears, you can't help but be drawn into their world of post-punk goodness.

The album is a masterclass in blending infectious hooks with thought-provoking lyrics. Tracks like "Black Widow Spider" and "Marathon of Anguish" showcase the band's ability to tackle weighty topics with a sense of humour and a killer guitar riff. And let's not forget the groovy basslines that underpin every song, courtesy of Sean Yeaton.

But it's not all introspective musings and toe-tapping beats. Parquet Courts also know how to get political, with tracks like "Homo Sapien" and "Plant Life" offering sharp critiques of the world we live in. And yet, despite the weighty subject matter, there's an undeniable sense of fun that runs through the entire album.

In short, "Sympathy For Life" is a triumph for Parquet Courts. It's catchy, it's clever, and it's sure to be on constant rotation for anyone who appreciates a bit of wit with their rock. So grab your dancing shoes, crank up the volume, and get ready to be blown away by one of the most exciting bands in the game.
