Time on Our Hands, Spider-Man

"After a ten-year hiatus, the much-lauded Parker brothers return to their literate and urgent oeuvre with a new band and a new album." – ELECTRIC SOUND OF JOY

"Time on Our Hands, Spider-Man" is the lead single from 'Pessimistic Pizza,' the debut mini-album from My Best Unbeaten Brother, a new South London-based trio featuring the critically lauded Ben and Adam Parker (Nosferatu D2 / Tempertwig / Superman Revenge Squad) and bassist Ben Fry.

Described as "the lost pioneers of the indie-emo scene," the Parker brothers' unconventional journey has been the subject of retrospective radio stories by Public Radio International and BBC 6 Music, while their past works received raves on Drowned in Sound, The Line of Best Fit, Pitchfork, NME, DIY Mag, and The Skinny. Their first new material since 2013 reunites them with Audio Antihero Records (Frog / Cloud / Magana), their longtime label, and sees them cast aside their past insecurities in search of hope and meaning whilst preserving the off-kilter musical chemistry that earned the siblings fans in Los Campesinos!, Art Brut, and Johnny Foreigner.

"Some kind of alchemy, not to be repeated – a mix of tension, bitterness, and a way with lyrics that no one has, or will, match – 9/10." – DROWNED IN SOUND (Nosferatu D2 review)

The group debuted with "Slayer on a Sunny Day" in November on Joyzine's '20 Years of Joy' compilation. The song was praised by BBC 6 Music, Various Small Flames, Austin Town Hall, and Start-Track, while also getting picked up by American college radio stations (WKUD / WKNC / KXSF / WMBR / KHDX).

Press for My Best Unbeaten Brother:

"Pairing a racing momentum with droll delivery in an attempt to look on the bright side and make the best of the present moment, no matter how difficult outside forces conspire to make such a mindset." – VARIOUS SMALL FLAMES

"Something in the song is growling at you instantly; the guitar lines have this edge to them that immediately has you on edge…the anticipation builds for that whole first minute. Then you've the seemingly spoken vocal delivery that works through the track as the guitars stab and poke through your speakers; it's this riotous bit of ramshackle rock n' roll that's perfectly balanced to rip through your speakers." – AUSTIN TOWN HALL

Previous Parker Brothers Praise (Nosferatu D2 / Tempertwig / Superman Revenge Squad):

"This record perfectly depicts disillusionment with the place you live or the relationship you're in, but are completely unable to bring yourself to get away from. Brothers Adam and Ben Parker– Adam whose drumming is up there with any drummer I've ever heard, and Ben whose lyrics are perfect in their hopelessness. This has finally seen release as a fan, Audio Antihero, took it upon themself to put up the money to release the record. A noble pursuit and one that, if it's successful, will see us as the winners." – PITCHFORK

"Your record collection is incomplete without its inclusion." – THE LINE OF BEST FIT

"Well this totally fucks up my provisional list of Albums of The Year…Nosferatu D2 are one of my favourite bands of all time. Some of the best, most hateful lyrics you'll ever hear." – LOS CAMPESINOS!

"As giddily hypnotic as they are unsettling." – NME

"An emotional rollercoaster laced with blaspheme and romantic despair." – DIY MAG
