Review By Darren McIntyre

Gypsy Pistoleros are a collection of eye patch wearing glam sleaze pioneers who have been described as the ideal house band from the fictitious Titty Twister Bar from Dusk Till Dawn. They are a glam / sleaze outfit from somewhere between Barcelona and Birmingham and have been on the scene since 2006. The guys have played The Rocklahoma Festival from 2007 -11, toured with many top acts including Ramones, Motorhead in 1993 -96. They have also graced the stage with the likes of Motley Crue, G + R, Poison, ZZ Top, Twisted Sister, Papa Roach, Whitesnake, LA Guns, Faster Pussycat, Skid Row and many many more. The band have been busy in the studio writing their new album Church Of The Pistoleros due for release 2nd May, from that comes the 3rd single Whatever Happened To The Old Town which I will be reviewing for you tonight, sit back grab a cold one and ready yourselves for a rooting tooting ride of your live.

Whatever Happened To The Old Town – A cool rasping guitar lick flows freely through the intro as Gypsy Lee brings his growling vocals to let this cool anthem beast come to life. We have a punchy rhythm section that is commanding the room as is throws our solid snare drum punches as the bass kicks and cymbal crashes rain down on us as the band kicks in the doors and really socks it to us, the tempo is a rousing monster that takes us one way then the next as the full on bassline drops dark, delicious grooves that wrap themselves around this foot stomping rock n roller that just builds and builds as the band hits the accelerator and just brings a rousing groove that gets you all warm and fuzzy inside as the band really delivers a fist pumping, ride that punches you straight in the face. The growling guitar riffs flow effortlessly alongside a cool beat that just elevates this colossal melodic groover to another level.
