Listen: The Horrors – ‘So Now You Know’
Last month The Horrors finally announced their fourth album Luminous, and revealed it will be out on 6 May through XL Recordings.

Top Albums of 2011 – No. 1: The Horrors, ‘Skying’
Number one in our run down of the top albums of 2011 unsurprisingly goes to The Horrors, for their rich, textured and nuanced third album Skying.

The most interesting London festivals of 2014
Is there no better way to while away one’s free moments; minutes so furiously wrenched away from the boring rigmarole of everyday life; than putting on pairs of shades and shorts and heading on down to a summer festival. Baking sun, guitar twangs percolating through the breeze, and a frosty pint of lager; we wouldn’t […]
