Review: Pistol Pearl Strikes Again! 'Knock 'Em Dead' is the Fierce Anthem We Didn’t Know We Needed


Pistol Pearl’s new single, "Knock 'Em Dead," is an unapologetic anthem that takes listeners on a wild ride through strength and self-empowerment. A dynamic fusion of Pop, Country, and Western influences, this track is a statement piece that showcases Pistol Pearl's undeniable artistry. With lyrics like, "If I’m too strong, then shoot, pick up them boots and walk away, there’s dangerous curves ahead," she’s not just singing—she’s rallying her listeners to stand firm in the face of criticism. The punchy line, "Momma said knock ‘em out, I knock ‘em dead,” solidifies the message that Pistol Pearl is here to leave her mark, both musically and symbolically.


Drawing comparisons to the vocal power of Carrie Underwood, the lyrical depth of Kacey Musgraves, and the bold, genre-blending spirit of Orville Peck, Pistol Pearl is emerging as a force to be reckoned with. Like these trailblazing artists, she’s unafraid to challenge expectations, using her music as a platform to empower and inspire.


Building off the success of her viral debut "Boot Down," which racked up 500,000 views on TikTok, "Knock 'Em Dead" is the second release from her highly anticipated EP. The track has already made waves, with her Spotify hitting an impressive 200,000 streams shortly after its release. Pistol Pearl’s decision to cover her face, a move that adds to her mystique, asks her audience to focus on the music, not the image. With this bold stance, she challenges the industry's tendency to prioritize looks over talent.


"Knock 'Em Dead" is an explosive testament to Pistol Pearl’s growing influence and unique artistry. Buckle up—Pistol Pearl is taking us all on an unforgettable journey through the modern American West.
