    Here's what people said about our first CD... .. ..Solid State Neo-Hedonist.. is one of those rare indie debut releases that sounds like anything but a debut, and anything but an indie release. Pistol for Ringo display a propensity for the sophisticated both in lyrics and production, eschewing the obvious while still working within commercial pop/rock structures... The band demonstrates an ambition in its creation that suggests their potential for making an unreservedly great dream pop/rock album. ....- Joseph McCombs / ALL MUSIC GUIDE.... .. Initial Impression: I appreciate their honesty. Aside from admitting that they're not "reinventing the wheel", the first track dubs in the phrase "I just want to tell you, if you don't get it, that's cool." -- That's cool!... But don't be afraid -- they don't suck, I promise! The stuff is really pretty good. If you're a fan of old school synth (Devo, Gary Numan and the like) you'll dig this. Plus the integrated sound bytes are pretty fun! ....- SCORE MAGAZINE.... .. Overall, ..Solid State Neo-Hedonist.. is a worthy effort. Its lyrical depth and variety are a strong and important element in quality music. The album is very easy to listen to and shows that Pistol For Ringo are serious musicians out to make an impact on the world of music. ....- Matt Hersh / INDIE MUSIC.COM.... .. "A little more," indeed. Pistol for Ringo doesn't dumb down for the masses. Instead, it commands respect by sticking to its guns and making aggressively interesting music. Precisely what I like to hear. ....- AIDING & ABETTING.... ..This is an LA band that makes a great rock album and adds to it a flair for mixing and combing through great pastures of quoted knowledge as they give rock a load of intellect that's been a long time coming. "Masochistic" and "Levitate" stand out just to make you feel good, "Noir Du Monde" vibrates with Pistols' exceptional use of art culture and musical know-how; this is a band that will make you think as you tap your dash on the ride home. ....- Lindsay Bloemink / SOULSHINE MAGAZINE.... ..Available at:.. .. .... ..or... ..Buy the CD here.. .... ....................real..editor....best profile tools..............<a

This is an LA band that makes a great rock album and adds to it a flair for mixing and combing through great pastures of quoted knowledge as they give rock a load of intellect that's been a long time coming. "Masochistic" and "Levitate" stand out just to make you feel good, "Noir Du Monde" vibrates with Pistols' exceptional use of art culture and musical know-how; this is a band that will make you think as you tap your dash on the ride home.
