Constant Future is Parts & Labor's final album, a taut and often abrasive collection of songs that found the band refining their signature sound. The record closes out their discography with a focused, albeit bleak, artistic statement.
- The album was produced by Jon Spencer of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. It was recorded at Stagg Street Studio in Los Angeles. The album was released on March 8, 2011, on Jagjaguwar.
- The album features a more restrained and melodic approach compared to some of their earlier, more chaotic work. Critics noted the band's continued exploration of complex rhythmic structures and dissonant guitar work.
- In 2011, Parts & Labor embarked on a tour supporting Constant Future, playing dates across North America and Europe. This marked their last extensive tour as a band.
Parts & Labor was a band from Brooklyn, New York, known for their deconstructed take on indie rock and noise music. Constant Future was released in the later period of their career, following their 2006 album Map of the South and preceding their eventual breakup.
