Luminous
The Horrors are back with a new album. Unlike many others, they continuously evolve their sound meaning every album holds something new and exciting and this one is excactly this! They take on a more experimental, moodier, electronic and darker sound! Tasking themselves with, as ever, moving onwards, The Horrors determined to make an album that was brighter, more positive, more electronic. ‘We’ve refined our sound,” affirms lead singer Faris Badwan, “and in terms of songwriting it is the record I'm happiest with.” Or, in the words of bass player Rhys Webb, “it’s not so much about heavier guitars as a heavier potency… We want to make music you can dance to, music that elevates…” Luminous by name, luminous by nature: this is an album radiating light and energy. These songs are The Horrors writing at their instinctive, intuitive and accessible best.

The Horrors
Thursday 20th March
at Pryzm, 8:30pm (14+)
Admission will be via e-ticket. Your e-ticket will be delivered to your email address in time for the show (typically the day before the event).To celebrate the release of the new album Night Life, The Horrors return to Kingston to play at Pryzm.Nearly 20 years since they first began, 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 shoegaze-nodding sharp left on their Mercury-nominated follow up ‘Primary Colours’, since the beginning they’ve roamed between genres and atmospheres freely. 2011’s ‘Skying’ won the NME Award for Best Album; ‘V’ was heralded as “a triumph” in a five-star Guardian review, while 2021’s pair of EPs - ‘Lout’ and ‘Against The Blade’ - marked a visceral new chapter with their most industrial, uncompromising output yet.Whilst the end results have changed, however, at their core has always been the same unbending commitment and bloody-minded allegiance to the cause. The Horrors are not and will never be a band that approach the job lightly. They’re musicians who’ll funnel everything they are into the process, at the expense of health, wealth and sometimes sanity. And so, whilst sixth album ‘Night Life’ sees the band once more shapeshift into a new form, with a new sonic outlook and - this time - a new line up, in some ways The Horrors are still as they ever were.-Times TBC but we expect doors at 8:30pm with a stage time of 9:30pmThose aged 14+ can attend unaccompanied. 8 to 13 year olds must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult (18+). No under 8s, sorry.Pryzm, 154 Clarence Street, Kingston Upon Thames (KT1 1QP)

The Horrors
Thursday 21st September
at New Slang, 9:00pm
PLEASE NOTE: If you choose Collect In Shop as your delivery option your tickets will need to be collected from the shop rather than from the venue.
The night before their new album is released The Horrors play at New Slang.
The fifth album titled V follows on from 2014's Luminous. Excellent songs with an abrasive and semi-dark sound that draws from a range of influences, including dance, trance and some 80's pop. They're evolving with every album and we can't wait to hear this new one.
“It is a risk,” Badwan says of the band’s new direction. “But life isn’t much fun without risk. It’s the antithesis of being creative if you know what you’re going to be doing every time.”
After the show, it's New Slang as usual where you can expect to hear the likes of Catfish & The Bottlemen, Circa Waves, Courteeners, The Shins and many more until 2AM.
9:00pm - DOORS 9:30pm - SAP 10:30pm - THE HORRORS
