THE HORRORS: Illustrated still life?
Automatic translation. Improvements are constantly being worked on.
Their third studio album was a landmark for The Horrors. “Skying” was released 14 years ago to the day on July 11, 2011. Did you already know these 5 facts?
★ “Skying” was the first album they recorded in their self-built London studio.
★ The lead single “Still Life” was described as the “hottest record in the world” at the time.
★ Musically, The Horrors go in the direction of post-punk, neo-psychedelia and shoegaze, both in the first single and on “Skying”.
★ That went down well: In the charts, the album can hold its own at number 5 (UK), 3 (USA) and 7 (Scotland).
★ It can win silver in its home country.
