PARQUET COURTS - MARDI GRAS (RSD 2018) [VINYL]

This Record Store Day, New York-based art punks Parquet Courts are back with two previously unreleased tracks, “Mardi Gras Beads” and “Seems Kind Of Silly,” available for the first time as a vinyl 7” in a classic Rough Trade sleeve, limited to 3,000 copies. “Mardi Gras Beads” appears on the band’s forthcoming album Wide Awake!, out May 18 via Rough Trade Records. “Seems Kind Of Silly” is a non album b-side. Wide Awake! is the band’s sixth studio album as Parquet Courts, following their critically acclaimed 2016 record Human Performance, which earned them praise from Rolling Stone (“the most exciting young rock band in America”), Pitchfork (“Best New Music”) The New York Times, NPR, Stereogum, and more.
