PARQUET COURTS: Wednesday February 5 @ The Standard w/- Total Control + Bed Wettin’ Bad Boys. Tickets on sale now from Moshtix.

Mistletone, FBi & The Music present, from Texas via New York and for the very first time in Australia, Parquet Courts. Expect delirious scenes when Parquet Courts smash The Standard along with their hand-picked special guests, Total Control and Bed Wettin’ Bad Boys.

Reigniting the joy of American punk rock, Parquet Courts are a no-nonsense, four-man explosion of up-all-night energy, a whip-smart collision of ideas designed to put brains (and mosh pits) in motion.

To quote Uncut: “Parquet Courts channel Pavement’s collapsible spirit better than any band I’ve seen or heard in a long time… (but) there’s plenty more going on in these songs than mere homage to one band. Their wiry ramalams fall into a tradition that began with The Velvet Underground (with “Loaded”, more specifically), rattled on through early ’80s Fall, and manifested itself most recently in the brilliant Australian garage band, Eddy Current Suppression Ring.”
