DOWNLOAD: Parts & Labor - "Rest" (MP3)

Parts & Labor will toast Constant Future, their new album, with a near constant round of touring through the end of May. The tour, divided into two legs, kicks off on home turf on the same day the album comes out via Jagjaguwar, on March 8th at Monster Island Basement with Pterodactyl, Fiasco, and Fuck Ton and then heads to SXSW. In April the band embarks on the second part of the North American trip. They kick off a European tour in May. All dates are below.
The new LP, which you can digitally get NOW if you pre-order from Insound, was produced by Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, Mogwai, Sleater-Kinney) and marks their fifth overall in their close-to-a-decade existence. Download two tracks off the album for free above.
All tour dates, a video flyer and another video, below.

I haven't been digging Constant Future. It's not bad but not good either.

I haven't seen these guys in awhile, but I remember a marked drop in quality after Sarah left. They were great without her, and then peaked when she joined. Once she left, though, it seemed like some of the air got sucked out of the room.

I feel kinda bad for bands like Parts and Labor. The NYC noise scene is kind of gasping for air and near death at this point ever since the dancier electronic trend took over

I love me some P&L, but I agree with the 2nd guitar sentiment. I last saw them at the Knit last spring and Mary Timony sat in on a few songs on guitar. Brought that much needed fuller dimension to their sound.
