The Horrors - Sea Within A Sea mp3

When a mysterious, unnamed counting down clock appeared on the Horrors Website, speculators and fans naturally assumed that this clock counted down to the release of new, never before heard Horrors material. On the 17th of March the band unveiled their first single ‘Sea Within A Sea’ from their upcoming album ‘Primary Colours’.

Drainpipes and amazing hair still intact, the band seem to have matured musically producing this 8 minute epic that swerves towards their influences in Joy Division and Kraftwerk. .In their track-by-track summary of the ‘Primary Colours’ NME described “Sea Within A Sea” as “An eight-minute Spacemen 3-meets-Neu! odyssey of ominous motorik rhythms, Faris’ mournful incantations and an expanding starfield of synths.” Phew! Now, we do realise that the Horrors may be the darlings of NME, but this ain’t no exaggeration! Check it out for yourself…

New video for The Horrors - Sea Within A Sea


The Horrors have signed to XL. Check out the video for The Horrors track 'Sea Within A Sea' from their forthcoming album Primary Colours out May 2.

As the XL blog says "[eight] minutes long and taking in Neu!, gloomy post-punk, C86 indie and acid house ... we never knew the Horrors had it in them."

An "8 minute kraut-goth workout" indeed.
