about

Perhaps the most Westerberg-y song I've written? A kind of drinking song. A rousing ode dedicated to missed friends during the time of Covid. A longing to reunite with those we'll never see again at the bar. It's also for my brother and partner in crime, Yubie, who was taken too soon. To those we've lost, and those who remain: until we meet again ... Cheers!

"Suicide Mission" reviewed:
“An impressive and long overdue solo debut. Peifer proves to be an appealing singer and exceptional songwriter. Of course he excels at writing catchy pop tunes with hooks. I look forward to much more from him as a solo artist and/or band leader.” - Lord Rutledge, Faster and Louder fasterandlouderblog.blogspot.com/2020/08/christopher-peifer-suicide-mission.html

“Absolutely brilliant!” - Wayne Lundqvist Ford, Ice Cream Man www.podomatic.com/podcasts/icecreammanpowerpop1967

"New York's Christopher Peifer has gained notoriety in rock 'n' roll circles with such outfits as the Kowalskis, Frances Farmer My Hero, and, currently, Blockhouses. Peifer (guitar, bass, lead vocals) makes his solo debut with able assistance from Cold Spring's Todd Giudice (drums, vocals), his collaborator in another band, Pig Iron. The 10 tracks here range from the crunching sun-blasted power pop of "Madrid" to the jangling lover's lament of "Poughkeepsie." The record has an intimate, bedroom song quality that was engineered and mixed at Giudice's Roots Cellar Studio. "This Broken Heart" boasts some fine, understated guitar work in the service of witty couplets recalling the jaundiced pop smarts of Elvis Costello." - Jeremy Schwartz, Chronogram

“Strong hooks and catchy melodies – the kind that listeners will play on repeat.” - John McKinney, The Journal Gazette www.journalgazette.net/entertainment/music/20200814/on-mission-to-embrace-nostalgia

“Christopher Peifer’s scrappy indie-rock could easily be your new favourite.” - Darryl Sterdan, The Tinnitist tinnitist.com/2020/07/23/submission-accomplished-12-fantastic-finds-from-the-digital-mailbox/

“Sonic treats, satisfying musical twists, and clever lyrical turns to discover.” -Broadway World www.broadwayworld.com/article/Christopher-Peifer-Releases-New-Album-Suicide-Mission-20200710
