Watch Parquet Courts Debut New Single “Black and White” on TV

Fred Armisen joins Parquet Courts on Seth Meyers to debut their new song.


There's something undeniable about the synthesis of Parquet Court's lyrical delivery —the articulate procession of phrases and ideas—and their unraveled, noisy instrumentation. They did a nice job of bringing that unpolished momentum to late-night TV, where the in-studio mix rarely ever sounds loud enough (they had help from the as-punk-as-ever Fred Armisan, too, who played guitar during the performance). The album version is streaming below, and you can turn it up as loud as you'd like. Sunbathing Animal drops June 15th through What's Your Rupture and Mom + Pop.
