Last week I received a package forwarded from my old address, and inside was a mixtape from the guys in Parquet Courts. I'm guessing this is the same tape being sent out to fans who pre-order the band's new EP Tally All the Things That You Broke. It's rare these days that a band offers up something like this to their fans, and even more rare that they include a phone number to call. So go ahead and rock out then call up the band and tell them how fucking rad they are. I didn't need another reason to love Parquet Courts but now I just want to give them a big hug. As always, if you dig what you hear make sure you do some googling, buy some records and support the bands.
