Parquet Courts have announced the follow-up to 2018's 'Wide Awake!'.
'Sympathy For Life' will arrive on October 22 and features the newly shared single Walking At A Downtown Pace, a riotous indie-rock track complete with a shouted chorus and danceable groove that arrives with aN equally frantic Daniel Arnold-directed video.
