"Pistol of Fire" is a song by American rock band Kings of Leon. It's the fourth track on their 2005 album Aha Shake Heartbreak. Characterized by Caleb Followill's raspy, southern-drawled vocals and a dirty guitar riff, the song is very uptempo. Some have speculated that the song's subject matter revolves around incest, though this is unconfirmed. A cover version of the song was inlcluded as a bonus track on Mark Ronson's 2007 album Version. It is also featured in the 2008 film Cloverfield and the 2007 film Full of It with Ryan Pinkston, and an episode of CSI: Miami.
