Pulled Apart by Horses are an English alternative rock band from Leeds. They formed in early 2008.

The band were signed by Transgressive Records in 2009, and released their debut self-titled album Pulled Apart by Horses on 21 June 2010. In August 2011, they went into Monnow Valley Studio in Wales to record with record producer Gil Norton, and their second album Tough Love was released to critical acclaim on 20 January 2012.[1]

After Tough Love, the band sold out their first European tour, and went on to support Biffy Clyro and Foals. In 2010 they supported Muse at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground.[2]

In September 2014 the band's third album Blood became their first top 40, entering the UK Albums Chart at number 38.[3] In 2016, Pulled Apart by Horses recorded a take over for Annie Mac and the BBC's Radio 1 in the United Kingdom.[4]

The band's fourth album, The Haze was released in March 2017 and reached number 12 in the UK Albums Chart.[5][6]
