Parquet Courts has shared new visuals for "Marathon of Anger," the third track from their seventh studio album, October's Sympathy For Life. The vaporwave-indebted video, directed by Mara Palena, blends negative film of the New York City skyline with VHS videos of people dancing.
The new video is the first in the Sympathy For Life, Visualized series, announced today. The band will continue down the tracklist — opener "Walking at a Downtown Pace" and subsequent song "Black Widow Spider" already have visuals — releasing a new video every weekday at noon EST until closer "Pulcinella" gets its own film on Friday, December 17. Feel Free: Sympathy For Life, Visualized, directed by Andy Capper and featuring guest appearances from Joe Pera and Bill Walton, will premiere the following Sunday, preceded by a Q&A with Parquet Courts bassist Sean Yeaton.
