Tough Love (Pulled Apart by Horses album)
Tough Love is the second album from the Leeds four piece Pulled Apart by Horses. It was recorded at Monnow Valley Studio in South Wales. It was released on 20 January 2012. In an interview with NME, Bassist Rob Lee explained that
"This album is a lot more direct, we're better musicians and songwriters now. On the first one, we weren't that good as musicians, but now we've been touring relentlessly and we've got to be better players. We made our debut ourselves and it wasn't ambitious. This feels more like our first proper album and not just something for self-gratification. Every song on this album has its own personality and really stands on its own". Track listing
