Pulled Apart By Horses

Pulled Apart by Horses at Play, Middlesbrough Saturday 28th June With support from Fast Blood and Onlooker Pulled Apart By Horses are a potent force within the alternative rock scene - less a gang, more a fucked-up family. Formed in 2008 and existing in its own chaotic ecosystem, PABH embarked on relentless tours with frenetic live performances. The Leeds trio make and perform music that thrills and menaces. In Sept 2022, after a period of reflection and transformation, PABH released their long-awaited 5th album, ‘Reality Cheques’. Creating songs delivered with raw urgency, the band changed their approach with Hudson ditching his guitar and focusing on vocals, distilling their lineup to guitar, bass and drums creating a vital new feel. “The fat was trimmed! We spent months playing the songs in our practice space & on an ‘up close and personal’ tour, heading into the studio to capture the tracks live, tour tight and locked in!” A 7” vinyl featuring ‘First World Problems’ / ‘Rinse & Repeat’, saw PABH landing at #2 in The UK Vinyl Singles Chart. ‘First World Problems’ - ‘’is a voiced frustration towards our groomed, individualist society. Our real & online worlds are full of constant venting of trivial annoyances, as if they are the centre of the universe when there are more pressing matters out there.’’ 'Rinse & Repeat’ is ‘’Inspired by seeing Ziggy Stardust standing in line at the JobCentre, it’s more punk rock than Iggy advertising life insurance.” Doors 7:30pm Onlooker 8:00pm Fast Blood 9:00pm Pulled Apart by Horses 10:00pm Lucky Teds Pizza available until 10pm Bar Open until Midnight £15 advance 18+ at Play, 8 Cannon Park Way, Middlesbrough, TS1 5JU
