Gypsy Pistoleros, the Renegade Glam Punk Rock enigmas, deliver a sound that is both grandiose and gloriously extravagant. Their music spans a vast range, from anthemic rock and Latin swagger to Phil Spector-esque 50s ballads and pure dark glam punk rock. With elements of near-emo and goth, combined with the heaviest rock and operatic grandeur, they truly create a genre of their own.

“To sum up, HOLY SHIT!!! Church Of The Pistoleros is a landmark release in 2024’s tranche both from established and up n coming bands. Some (we all know whom) bands are happy to rest on their vibe laurels. Some (again, we all know whom) try to push boundaries and it just doesn’t seem to work. Some, and Gypsy Pistoleros are in the Vanguard of this, explore, experiment, invade borders and totally succeed in smashing beyond their previous material every goddam time. Move the heavens and wade through Hell to lay your sweaty wee mitts upon a vinyl or CD copy of Church Of The Pistoleros. Trust me, your ears will love you FOREVER!!!!!!” - Sammi Quinn, Voodoo Radio
“The Pistoleros are a band who live up to their own hype, as they tick all of the boxes they attribute to themselves, and then some. Some might even say it’s the greatest eclectic rock album in decades.
