Artist History
After five years of playing with various local bands, the members of LoadPuller got together in 1997 to create music for our
own amusement.The local music scene was stagnate and opened it's arms to the tongue-in-cheek, good time approach of LoadPuller. |

Press Reviews
"The tune up for showcasing by LoadPuller on "Shoot for the moon" is the EXCELLENT "Tug of War". The clever production on
this one is OUTSTANDING. I love the INXS style funky guitar, combined with just enough wah wah. This one is sure to drag
EVERYONE on to the dance floor. It has to be one of the most imaginative dance tunes I've heard in a LONG, LONG, time. Also
love the tongue in cheek "credits",(at least I presume they are !! LOL !!) to the Prime Minister of India !!!......Whaaaaaat
!!!" - Colin Kennaugh of the band "Kenna": /artists/413/kenna.html
"FRIENDLY FIRE by LOADPULLER is a wonderful melting pot of fantastic rythms,flutes,strange exotic voices and delicious guitars..The main hook is the brilliant and insistent'spanish' acoustic riff that comes in-grabs centre stage for a few seconds then exits with the cool of a Clint Eastwood spaghetti western anti-hero..Actually the guitar playing throughout is sublime and the feeling of the track as a whole is humorous,upbeat and unpredictable..This song does the amazing double act of being totally original and unclassifiable yet at the same time is instantly enjoyable and seems VERY commercial..Melodic,intelligent and groovy- Can't wait to see the video!"
