The name was taken from the very influential band His Hero is Gone. While passing on the traditional messages of hardcore and unity Monument also dives heavily into current events, social struggles/issues and political injustice. The word is getting smaller and the ability to share information and ideas is getting easier and easier. We'd like to take advantage of this and help spread positive ideas and bring light to issues we feel are worth the attention. Monument to Thieves may be new to the game, but with members like Keith Barney (Throwdown, Eighteen Visions) on vocals, Matt Horwitz (Adamantium, The Agony Scene), Marc Jackson (Force of Change, Throwdown) on guitar, Dave Itow (The Mistake, Amendment 18) on bass and Chris Dinicola on guitar it's obvious they are veterans to the scene.
