Parquet Courts are a New York via Texas quartet that pound out tight, energetic post-punk sounds. The beauty of the band's music is created using equal parts weirdness, simplicity, and smart scrappy punk. Off there July release, Sunbathing Animals, "Black and White" is up-tempo and almost dancible track. No seriously, even through the guitar's seemingly impromptu madness, the band displays unflinching composure, leaving the rest of us to flail happily about, happy that there are still bands making this kind of music.
