Fifth full-length album from power rock band Black Pistol Fire, Deadbeat Graffiti, to be released on September 29th.
The band is simultaneously announcing their tour in support of the album, which will begin with a special gig in their hometown of Austin, Texas on September 29th before hitting the road on October 10th, starting in Missouri and ending on December 8th in Nashville. The tour makes stops in Toronto, Philadelphia, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and more.
“Lost Cause,” a lovestruck anthem that serves as the heavy kickstarter intro to the record, debuts today and is the first single from the new album. Black Pistol Fire is a Canadian-bred rock duo, currently based out of Austin, Texas and composed of guitarist/vocalist Kevin McKeown and drummer Eric Owen. Their untamed sound stems inspiration from garage-rock, hip hop, R&B and classic rock. In recent years, they’ve earned a reputation for their powerful live performances in the festival circuit from Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, Sasquatch, and Governor’s Ball, among others. Consequence of Sound warns, “sleep on these guys at your own risk” and Huffington Post dubbed Black Pistol Fire as the “next big thing” after an impressive SXSW performance.
According to the band, “our fifth album is a representation of our listening habits. It has a roller coaster effect, with many different tempos and influences ranging from garage-punk, to hip-hop, soul, and everything else that we may listen to on a given day. It is meant to act like a mixtape or Spotify playlist, where the listener won’t know what’ll hit them next!”
