Pistol Grip is an American street punk band, formed in Walnut, California in 1997.
Their sound has been described as a mixture of the UK and LA styles of punk fused with anti-religious and quasi-political lyrics.
The band built up a strong local following through playing shows with The Adicts, Agnostic Front, The Generators, Youth Brigade and The Unseen.
Their first release was a split album with fellow LA street punk band Fully Loaded.
The album caught the attention of BYO Records, who signed the band in 2001.
