Smiling Can Backfire was the first release by band Pistol Youth, released in 2007.

To make the EP each member had to record their own parts of the song from where they were, then send them back to Brad Carter in Los Angeles where they were finally put together. Following the release, Carter invited the other members of Pistol Youth to come visit him in Los Angeles so they could finally meet each other and write music together in the same room. Three tracks from this EP were included on their first album, My Own Private Amsterdam.
