The Horrors | Night Life

First full-length studio album in almost 8 years from the constantly shapeshifting rock outfit, The Horrors.

After nearly 20 years making music, there are few bands who’ve created a canon as determinedly innovative and consistently critically-acclaimed as The Horrors. Emerging as zeitgeist-shaking garage-goths on their 2007 debut ‘Strange House’, before taking a sharp left turn for their Mercury-nominated follow up ‘Primary Colours’, since the beginning they’ve roamed freely between genres.

Whilst the end results have changed, however, at their core has always been the same unbending commitment and bloody-minded allegiance to the cause. And so, whilst sixth album ‘Night Life’ sees the band once more shapeshift into a new form, with a new sonic outlook, in some ways The Horrors are still as they ever were. Their new form, however, doesn't only reside in the sonical landscapes they conjure up but is very much a physical change in the group dynamics, welcoming new members Amelia Kidd on synths and Telegram’s Jordan Cook on drums, while remaining centered around lead singer Faris Badwan with Rhys Webb on bass and Joshua Hayward on guitars.
