All Back No Front #12

“We’re a band of dudes and we make music. That’s kinda what we do.”

The straight-talking Austin Brown of Parquet Courts is on the phone from New York on ABNF number 12 as Guest Informant. He picks something brilliant by Tyvek and talks about songwriting, early nights and peculiar rumours surrounding his band.

Elsewhere Detroit’s Protomartyr take the lead in an hour containing 13 songs, that include majestic string-swept house from Berlin, a Baltimore three-way, new material from Goat, Eleanor Friedberger and Hookworms and the first ever improvisational piece of music to appear on the podcast, ill-considered links notwithstanding.

Thank you for listening.
