On Monday 10th August 2009 at about 7.09pm, after Ed had just finished trying to jam on a guitar that was hurting his fingers, I said to Ed "hey Ed, let’s go to Pulled Apart By Horses now because it’s nearly 7.10’ and we said bye to Buddy the cat who has some pretty nasty mental issues, due to my Arnold Schwangnigger impressions. Sorry Buddy.
It was about a year ago that I first heard of Pulled Apart by Horses, a Leeds band that I described at the time as “utterly mental”. I questioned whether or not they had the makings of a great band, but there was certainly potential in their demo songs. A year later, and what has changed? Well, the band have seemingly exploded onto the indie scene, which is nice for them. Their live shows have now become the stuff of legend, with shows that seem to put the chaos of a Dananananaykroyd show to shame.

Dananananaykroyd/Pulled Apart by Horses/Calf by Calf @ The Harley, Sheffield
With Youthmovies playing at Sheffield University, Death Cab for Cutie at the Academy and Fucked Up and White Denim also playing in Sheffield, there was an abundance of live music on around the city tonight. However, it was a small pub, The Harley, that would boast one of the finest line-ups of the night.
