New Zealand band PARENTS are heading over to Australia in March to play some shows. Formed in 2009, Parents have become a mainstay of the Auckland hardcore punk community. Underpinned by a distinctive and frantic energy, their sound blends melody and discordance into an unpredictable, cathartic haze.
