If wiry, intelligent New York punk is the vestibule for Parquet Courts’ message, then chugging, skeletal guitars and a rich baritone of a vocal provide the method for this hotly-tipped four piece, formed from the remnants of various bands – Fergus and Geronimo; Teenage Cool Kids. Their debut album Light Up Gold gets a UK release in April; catch them live at The Garage (March 19), The Shacklewell Arms (20) and Sebright Arms (21).
