In what they describe\u00a0as a &#8220;post-grunge hymn&#8221; on which their rage is manifested in a muddy, fuzzed-out wall of distortion, they bemoan being priced out of their own town, and condemn\u00a0homelessness, greed and profit.\u00a0Pabst, being three of a dying breed of non-riches in their city, are watching the development of theirs and other cities in disbelief, with\u00a0<em>Skyline\u00a0<\/em>erupting into its hook,\u00a0<em>\u201cThis city is no place for losers like us.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0The band explains further.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Although more than half of the world&#8217;s population lives in cities (and the trend is rising), they seem to be becoming more and more hostile places as they increasingly develop into \u201clocations\u201d. Especially in Berlin, where we come from, we have noticed vast changes in this direction in recent years. High fluctuation determines the cityscape and the housing market, with more and more furnished apartments\u00a0being built. If you want to live somewhere, you often have to compete with hundreds. Houses classified as dilapidated will be demolished or fully renovated (&#8217;cause otherwise the price will not rise).<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv0819510706size-16\"><em>Nobody who owns the apartments really lives in them: students live there who stay in the city for a comparatively short time, tourists stay there for whom the apartments are converted into holiday homes, and above all; for people who can afford it. Everyone else has to move out of the city to where it&#8217;s boring and cheap. You know that, it&#8217;s nothing new. And, of course, this affects not only living space, but also the rest of the infrastructure. Many clubs and other cultural venues have to close because their rental contracts are passed on to the highest bidder, or because of a few residents who seemingly realized too late that the city apartment is not a country house by the lake.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-11545 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/mail-7.jpg 840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After releasing\u00a0the critically acclaimed debut album &#8216;<em>Chlorine&#8217;<\/em>, playing too many gigs to count, supporting the likes of\u00a0Bob Mould (H\u00fcsker D\u00fc) and Kadavar on tour &#8211;\u00a0as well as making over 30 festival appearances in 2019 alone &#8211;\u00a0Pabst return\u00a0in 2020 with the announcement of their new album\u00a0<em>Deuce\u00a0Ex Machina\u00a0<\/em>for release\u00a0June 19.
