Pessimistic Pizza is the debut mini-album from My Best Unbeaten Brother. This is a new project from the returning Ben and Adam Parker of Nosferatu D2.

Pessimistic Pizza is the urgent and emotional 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. Their first new material since 2013 reunites them with Audio Antihero (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.
Preceded by the singles, ‘Time On our Hands, Spider-Man', ‘Extraordinary Times’ (May 24) and ‘Blues Fatigue’ (June 7), Pessimistic Pizza will be released on June 28.
