Following up their well-received “Gallows” LP, New York City’s Anarcho-Deathrock hybrid return with three new tracks. Against the landscape drawn up by 80’s-influenced post-punk, Pawns exchange full-on punk rage for a gloomy animosity by exploring dark and desperate melodies. Bass-heavy rhythms and choral guitar tones are topped off by vocalist Gage Allison’s ominous baritone vocals in a rich maelstrom of bleak gothic punk. Title track “Monuments Of Faith” and “Shadows Of Hiroshima” are fast and melodic, whilst “Broken” is a soaring, anthemic, Bauhaus-style stormer - £5.00 plus post
