Parquet Courts have seemingly come out of nowhere to take the world by storm. They have steadily built their fanbase from the ground up, all the while receiving immense critical praise, something not afforded to most bands of their ilk. The group is centered around Texas-to-Brooklyn transplant Andrew Savage, who along with partner in crime Austin Brown, had no problem generating buzz with their former bands Fergus & Geronimo and Teenage Cool Kids. The group is rounded out by Savage’s brother Max on drums and bassist Sean Yeaton. Together, they focus on energetic stoner punk with a jagged alternative edge. Over the course of the album, they manage to combine the charming warble of Pavement with the urgency of 1970's NYC proto-punk bands like Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers.
