Guys, I was lucky enough to stumble upon The Horrors while I was at the Splendour in the Grass music festival in August last year.
On first appearance they look like a run of the mill Emo band.
However, they played with a real flair. The dude playing the keyboard was brilliant.
I thought they were great live, but couldn't properly feel their music in that live environment, so I didn't pursue any recorded material. However the name was etched in my mind.
I was their to see Arctic Monkeys with the bonus of Bloc Party and the chance to discover some new bands.
I'm watching JTV the other morning and The Horrors had a clip "She is the new thing" and again the song instantly grabbed me. The clip was also brilliant.
I've done some investigating and found that they are a band from London, with a very good album - Strange House.
I'm onto my 5th listen and I'm thoughrally enjoying it.
I strongly recommend checking these guys out.
You'll need to look past the Emo appearance. The music is great.
I'm attempting to embed a youtube video of the clip I saw.
Even if you're not interested in the music, the clip is fantastic and well worth a look.
The creativity is flowing from all angles.
Let me know what you think.
