The Horrors(UK)

The Horrors are set to return to Australia for a headline national tour.

After nearly 20 years making music, there are few bands who’ve created a canon as determinedly innovative and consistently critically-acclaimed as The Horrors. Emerging as zeitgeist-shaking garage-goths on their 2007 debut Strange House, before taking a sharp left turn for their Mercury-nominated follow up Primary Colours, since the beginning they have roamed freely between genres. 2011’s Skying won the NME Award for Best Album; V was heralded as “a triumph” in a five-star Guardian review, while 2021’s pair of EPs - Lout and Against The Blade - marked a new chapter with their most industrial, uncompromising output yet.

The band's brand new album, Night Life, is a record of weight and space; of melancholy and euphoria; a record that has the ability to make bedfellows of seemingly disparate ideas as only The Horrors can. The ‘Night Life’ here is not the vim and vigour of pubs and clubs. It’s the thoughts that happen under the cover of darkness; the places your mind takes you when the rest of the world is asleep. A record born out of a desire to revive the raw, instinctive spirit of the band’s early work.
