1. The Horrors are an alternative/garage rock band which formed in 2006 in Southend-on-sea, United Kingdom. The band consists of Faris Badwan (vocals), Joshua Third (guitar), Tomethy Furse (bass), Rhys “Spider” Webb (keyboards) and Coffin Joe Spurgeon (drums). The band has released two albums as of 2009: 2007’s “Strange House” and 2009’s “Primary Colours”.
Formed by ace faces of the East London and Southend-on-sea angular scene in 2006, The Horrors are a garage rock band that have released six singles and two albums for Loog and an EP in the US. They have already been on the front cover of NME, despite their singles being so limited that they are already considered collectors’ items.
First single was “Sheena is a Parasite”, which was promoted with a banned video by Chris Cunningham. B-side was a cover version of Screaming Lord Sutch’s “Jack The Ripper”.
Second single “Death At The Chapel” was released on the 31st of July, backed with “Crawdaddy Simone”, originally by the Syndicats.

I thought they were great live but I saw them before they decided to open up for NIN, much less Muse.

yes, Primary Colours is a pretty good Shoegaze album, mixed with their Garage Rock style, of course.
