I'm waiting to hear someone refer to Parquet Courts as 'Parket Courts' - in the same way that the leading consonant in Xavier Rudd's first name has taken on a gratuitous prominence, and that the parochial grudge matches between the Adelaide Crows and Port Adelaide, or Fremantle and the West Coast Eagles are described as 'derrbies'...

Tweet Millennial Music Ah, Parquet Courts. You're so weird, refreshing and cool. Back when Light Up Gold came out, it was hard to decide if you were trying too hard or if your oddities were working in your favor. But now that Sunbathing Animal has been released, it is clear that your weirdness works for you. Even in its most awkward moments and hardest punches, some hook or lyric comes right around the corner and makes it feel like everything is being done right...

Given the vitality, the sheer now-ness of their self-titled breakthrough LP, Parquet Courts faced a struggle to overcome its legacy. Matching snotty to artful, bracing to beautiful, 'Sunbathing Animal' may well have achieved this. Borrowing liberally from New York's impeccable art-punk tradition, Parquet Courts are smart enough to play dumb. Repetition is the name of the game, with 'She's Rollin' or 'Dear Ramona' rampaging through your brain...

Parquet Courts are lumped in with the like-minded guitar bands that came before them, but it diminishes their creativity to dismiss them as Pavement wannabes or the nu Swell Maps. While the Brooklyn transplants certainly borrow some elements from indie rock's past, it's more that they share the ethos -- a complacency to play music however they want, free from critical expectations and the overcrowded music industry...

Parquet Courts made a name for themselves as the snotty but talented punk quartet who turned heads with their 2013 breakthrough album Light Up Gold, and two years on, they still sound miffed. Packed with three-minute songs characterised by fast-paced, twitchy garage rock and introverted lyrics from Austin Brown and Andrew Savage, Sunbathing Animal presents a litany of marginalised characters scribbling in Moleskines (Dear Ramona) and struggling to cope with smalltown myopia (Black and White)...

There's a ramshackle quality to Parquet Courts' third album. You're never quite sure where it's going to go next. The New York City via (mostly) Texas band get tagged "punk," but it's a non-urgent, spare style in the vein of Television, Suicide and Wire, all of whom were more than just punk, as are Parquet Courts. They mix wordy lyrics and nervy guitars. The title track has the never-let-up tempo of hardcore but without the aggression...

Sunbathing Animal isn't driven by one overarching narrative, but it's trying to tell to a story nonetheless. A multilayered, lyrics-first album full of tricks and turns, resonant images and poignant one-liners, it's a massive leap from one of NYC's most compelling new bands. The star of "Dear Ramona" is not necessarily central to the plot, but she is a telling support character. "She ain't ever gonna open up, no...

The anxiety of influence can weigh heavily on any emerging artist in any artform, but it seems like a bigger burden to bear when it comes indie rock. The genre's best acts, though, never let you see them sweat it, as is the case with Parquet Courts. It's that kind of attitude and approach that Parquet Courts share with the bands they most obviously bring to mind, beyond whatever finer-point similarities you want to draw based on their meandering guitars, diffident vocals, and oblique lyrics...
