About The Horrors

The most exciting band to emerge in 2006, The Horrors have crashed out of Southend with a thrilling and amphetamine-wired take on '60s R&B and garage rock. Their continued assault in 2007 sees them release their highly anticipated debut album ‘Strange House’.

Available on CD, Limited CD/DVD and Limited Gatefold LP, ‘Strange House’ sees the band - Faris Rotter (vocals), Coffin Joe (drums), Spider Webb (organ), Tomethy Furse (bass) and Joshua Von Grimm (guitar) - put their post-punk aesthetic into overdrive, referencing everyone from The Birthday Party through to The Cramps, and managing to sound like no-one else around at the moment.


Including the limited, non-chart eligible singles ‘Sheena Is A Parasite’, ‘Death At The Chapel’, ‘Count In Fives’ and new single ‘Gloves’, the album is described by Vice as "12 songs of snarling, violent, anarchic, garage pop that makes 90 percent of the new bands in the world suddenly irrelevant."



Delivering a chaotic live set, they've built a rabid cult following. They’ve just kicked off on the NME Indie Rock Tour for 19 dates with The Automatic, The View and Mumm-ra, and have also confirmed a headline UK tour in March/April which is selling fast.
