Gypsy Pistoleros Release New Album ‘Dark Faerie Tales’

Gypsy Pistoleros release their new album ‘Dark Faerie Tales’, out now via The New Church Records.

In 2026, while much of rock music plays it safe, Gypsy Pistoleros are burning the rulebook.
The world’s only Glam Punk Goth ’n’ Roll outlaws return with their most dangerous, theatrical, and uncompromising record yet — Dark Faerie Tales: A Fairytale for the Damned, released 17th April 2026 on The New Church Records Label

This is not nostalgia. This is not cosplay. This is feral, glitter-streaked, gothic punk rock with teeth.
Drawing openly from the bloodlines of The Damned, Hanoi Rocks, Killing Joke, The Cult, and the modern defiance of YUNGBLUD, Gypsy Pistoleros don’t imitate — they mutate. The result is an album that feels lived-in, earned, and gloriously unhinged.

Produced and co-written by long-time sonic conspirator Dave Draper (Michael Monroe, Ginger Wildheart, The Wildhearts, Therapy?, Elvana), Dark Faerie Tales fuses glam-soaked punk energy with gothic grandeur, raw fire, and apocalyptic swagger — a record for outsiders, believers, romantics, and beautiful misfits.

As Overdrive declares:
“A love letter to the beautiful and broken, a twisted hymn for the strange of heart, and proof that rock ’n’ roll still has room for danger, drama and glitter in the dark.”

Available worldwide & instore on three-colour vinyl, digipak CD, and digital:
Neon Purple & Black Splatter Vinyl
Neon Green & Black Splatter Vinyl
Deluxe 4-panel Digisleeve CD

Following the success of Church of the Pistoleros — hailed as one of 2025’s most fearless and eclectic rock albums — the Pistoleros have conjured something even bolder: a dark fairytale for the damned, a love letter to the beautiful and broken, and a twisted hymn for the strange of heart.
