Parquet Courts Wide Awake

4 stars out of 5 -- "With light-touch production by Danger Mouse, this is also the funkiest and sweetest Parquet Courts set yet, trading off some of their trademark guitar fireworks for danceable jams."
"Though WIDE AWAKE! is clearly a Parquet Courts record, it shows Danger Mouse's fingerprints as well, with dubby minor-key ambience and a record collector's grab bag of sonics..."
Included in Spin's "The 51 Best Albums of 2018" -- "'Mardis Gras Beads' and 'Freebird II,' two sloping, ambling tracks that live in their own hazy universe of 70s southern rock, are a sign that, at the heart of their angriest record yet, Parquet Courts weren't afraid to embrace tenderness."
4 stars out of 5 -- "WIDE AWAKE! is an indelible underlining of their status as one of the most important bands in the world right now."
Clash (Magazine) - "WIDE AWAKE! finds a perfect balance between the humorous, tongue-in-cheek style that the band have always done well with, and a fuzzy, alternative, distorted sound that gives an edge to what otherwise, could have been a toothless comedy record."
