PAWN PAWN Reveals Stories Of Passion & Destruction With Latest EP

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

January 24th, 2025 – Dark electronic trio, PAWN PAWN has just unveiled their latest EP, Halloween. The EP delivers a darkly electrifying journey through a spectrum of synth-driven styles, each track a study in emotional and sonic extremes. The Halloween EP is both a love letter to synthpopâs past and a step into its future. While inspired by film director, John Carpenter, the EP is named in honor of a holiday many dark hearts celebrate every day,

Halloween‘s trajectory goes through the brooding, pulsing opening track, âTrick Or Treatâ to the seductive, shadowy anthem, âTell You With My Eyesâ, then closing with âJealousy Looks Good On Meâ, a high-octane fusion of ’90s industrial-pop that balances chaotic aggression with razor-sharp melodic hooks.

The EP’s themes, like Halloween, are about embracing darkness and emotional extremes: vengeance, obsessive attraction & jealousy. They also represent tales of liminal spaces; the spaces between thinking about revenge and actively seeking it, or the space between obsessing over someone and actually making a move.

The EP also addresses the lines between passion and destruction, the idea being that an emotion like jealousy can theoretically make us more passionate and wanting to be the very best version of ourselves. Meanwhile that eternal desire competes in a battle that can never be won and is ultimately self-destructive.

Says vocalist, Liz Owens Boltz, the music on the EP is “about exploring synthpop and industrial-pop…this is really our first official foray into these genres. So our creative journey has brought us here, trying on a darker and more aggressive sound, and having fun with it.”

Halloween is available on all major digital platforms including Bandcamp and Spotify.

Each of the members were raised in Northwest Ohio, friends since their teens, and creatives in the Toledo music scene (including former members of Anna's Mom, Flamtronic, My Special Agent, and many other projects),<br>

The trio formed PAWN PAWN in 2018. What began as a more melodic, nu wave sound initially described as “shoe-gazing goth-rock” has evolved over the years from their debut album, Bedtime (2018) to the darker Mourning (2022) and more recently to the dark electronic, synthpop, and industrial-pop that powers the Halloween EP.

On the weekends, the bandmates host sessions with music-minded friends and can often be found covering everything from Siouxsie and the Banshees‘ “Cities in Dust” to George Michael‘s “Careless Whisper”.
