openupyourskull Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) https://store.universalmusic.com/thehorrors/ The Horrors' fifth studio album is being released on September 22nd, 2xLP with signed print available from the official store above. Doesn't look like there will be regular and deluxe vinyl versions like Luminous had, just the regular double LP. This is also their first album (aside from Strange House, of course) not released by XL. First single "Machine" was released a few weeks ago: Edited June 28, 2017 by openupyourskull Moff and ebuygum17 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OU818 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Honestly pretty interested in this one. Their last record didn't do much for me but I like the 80s sound on these singles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckle Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Oddly, Luminous did a lot for me, but that was my intro to the band so maybe it's a first listen thing. But I'm curious to hear this before purchase, first single above sounded a little more up my alley than the second. Given no variants, I'll grab in store if need be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openupyourskull Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 So... I am actually really, really enjoying this. Way more than I thought I would. The first half especially feels like a lovechild of Skying and Strange House, and yet somehow it works (and it's gnarly as hell live.) Something to Remember Me By is the sad goth disco anthem I never knew I needed. The record itself is a great package - glossy gatefold with full-color inner sleeves and a WAV download, and it's only 20 bucks at Bull Moose. This release is a perfect reminder of why they're one of my all-time favorites even though I really haven't thought about them much in the last few years - falling in love with a band all over again is a great feeling.

youspinmeround Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 This is by far the best record they have done since Primary. It certainly has some of the dancy elements that were on the last 2, but also has a rawness and guitar outburst at times that makes it different I was a little disappointed when I got the record as I thought the online images were that the record had a Japanese OBI but its printed on artwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeKaye Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 This has been getting great reviews over here. I liked, but didn't love some of their previous ones...will check this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
