Parquet Courts have dropped another new album taster, 'Homo Sapien'

Parquet Courts have dropped another taster of their new album 'Sympathy For Life'.

Titled 'Homo Sapien', the latest cut arrives ahead of the full-length's release this Friday (22nd October).

With a special 'Feel Free: Sympathy For Life Visualized' livestream set to take place tomorrow (20th October), it also comes alongside a video, directed by Marisa Gesualdi.

“‘Wide Awake!’ was a record you could put on at a party,” says co-frontman Austin Brown. “’Sympathy For Life’ is influenced by the party itself. Historically, some amazing rock records have been made from mingling in dance music culture – from Talking Heads to Screamadelica. Our goal was to bring that into our own music. Each of us, in our personal lives, has been going to more dance parties. Or rather, we were pre-pandemic, which is when this record was made.”

“Most of the songs were created by taking long improvisations and moulding them through our own editing. The biggest asset we have as artists is the band. After 10 years together, our greatest instrument is each other. The purest expression of Parquet Courts is when we are improvising.”
