Parquet Courts have announced a new album, titled Human Performance. The follow up to their 2014 album Sunbathing Animal, and last year's Monastic Living EP, Rough Trade are releasing it on April 8. 

To accompany this news, the group, who have achieved their successes without using Twitter or Facebook (quite a feat these days) have also just released a music video for new song "Dust," and it's nice to hear that the edges around their sound have remained characteristically rough and garage-y.  The claustraphobic video, directed by Johann Rashid, follows an office employee grinding through his work day, doing battle with a dusty, mirage creature. You can watch it below.

 Below is the artwork and tracklisting for Human Performance:
