The hotly tipped Horrors have pulled a record store gig due to fears of fan safety.

The band were set to play at London's Puregroove Records tonight (August 2) but now it is just to be a signing session.

Fans queued for around five hours to get into the band's last London gig at the 100 Club, and had there been anything like that response tonight, the shop is simply too small to handle it.

From The Horros MySpace site:

"The reason for this is that the initial feedback we've had about the possible numbers of people turning up has been sizeable, and if we play live, the store is worried about safety - especially given the reputation of you lot down the front row at our gigs...!"

Their single 'Death At The Chapel',

The signing session is due to start at 5.30 PM.
