Cape Town based hard rock degenerates Black Pistol have released the video for their second single “Call to Arms”. They’ve been rocking out since 2014.
The song is a riff heavy ode to the rock ‘n roll lifestyle. It’s off their debut full-length album Sins Of The Father (which is set for release on the 12th July 2019).
Comments by Black Pistol vocalist Stiaan Bruwer:
“Call to Arms is about having a good time and losing yourself to the music. There are no rules when it comes to enjoying rock and roll. You shouldn’t care about anything when you’re under Rock ‘n Roll’s spell, except being yourself and living in that blissful, musical moment. Bang your head ‘till you break your neck.”
The video was shot during the band’s first trip to Blue Room Studios in the Klein-Karoo town of Ladismith where they recorded the album with producer and studio owner Jo Ellis. The video was filmed by Jurie Neethling (Vetman) who also designed the bands logo, icon & artworks for their singles “Preacher” and “Call to Arms”.
Comments by Black Pistol Guitarist Roan Mustang:
“The idea of the video was to capture the energy & feel we experienced during our recording sessions and making of the album.”

I cranked up this tune loudly this morning and it got me to rock out on the chair in front of the PC. Just imagine what I will be doing to this track when I hear it live for the first time? I hope Black Pistol decide to play some Gauteng shows in the near future. Feel free to crank up there tracks on Spotify at this link.
