Skying = Massive Success

After the critical acclaim hurled upon The Horrors last effort " Primary Colours" it's a great relief to see that they have attempted to break the mold with their new album "Skying". This new collection of tracks embraces a variety of musical styles from the baggy vibes of leading single "Still Life", to the krautrock awesomeness of "Monica Gems". It is safe to say that Faris Badwan and co. have ditched the goth influences that shaped their first two albums, and in doing so have produced one of the albums of the year so far.

Rating: 4/5.
If The Horrors can continue to produce music of this calibre as their careers continue, then they may well live up to the suggestions that they could truly shape the music scene of this generation.
