Pistoleros

Pistoleros (1987)

This is the very entertaining debut EP of the German quartet. The four track EP was released on 7īī vinyl by Pigture DISC Records in 1987. All songs come along with the bandīs very unique blend of Garage Punk, Trash and Rock`nīRoll packaged within German lyrics. The track Monsterbande is a horror version of the popular (German) nursery rhyme Die Affen Rasen Durch Den Wald. Tracklist: Pistoleros-- Mon Cherie // Kenn Ein Land-- Monsterbande.

Ein Mythos Wird Wirklichkeit (1989)

This is the first and last long-playing record from the four piece outfit, hailing from Wuppertal. Again, the Pistoleros interblend several music styles like Country, Garage Punk and  Trash to a no-nonsense, energy-driven sound of Rock`nīRoll. About half of the thirteen songs were written in German  language, including a powerful cover version of Geisterreiter (Ghost Riders In The Sky ). Though the band had little more than local success, the album is really worth a listen. Highlights are Pistoleros Werden Wir Genannt, Geisterreiter, Revenge Of A Lonesome Cowboy, Komm Schon Darling and Vierzig Meilen Nach Oregon.
