Prayers for Atheists (abbreviated PFA) is an American punk rock band from Providence, Rhode Island, consisting of Jared Paul and Alan Hague. [1]
Prayers for Atheists released the debut EP, Prayers for Atheists, on Strange Famous Records in 2009. [2] The first album, New Hymns for an Old War, was released on PFA Records in 2011. [3]
Andy Thomas of Westword noted that "Prayers for Atheists is waiting patiently for the torch to be passed from social heavyweights like Rage Against the Machine — perhaps only to drop it and then watch it all burn." [4] Meanwhile, Alex Dunbar of Vice said: "What sets PFA apart from most rock-rap acts is that MC Jared Paul has some real flow mastery." [5]
