The Horrors are an English rock band formed in Southend-on-Sea in 2005, known for evolving from a raw garage-punk debut toward shoegaze, new wave and electronic-influenced sounds.

Primary Colours (2009) involved production contributions from Geoff Barrow and mixing/production work by Chris Cunningham mentioned in reviews; Skying was released on XL Recordings; Faris Badwan is noted in reviews as having the side project Cat's Eyes with Rachel Zeffira.

DeBaser's reviews trace The Horrors' evolution from a garage-punk debut (Strange House) to the shoegaze/new-wave hybrid of Primary Colours and the expansive Skying. Reviews praise production, notable collaborations, and the band's stylistic shifts while noting heavy influences. Night Life continues a move toward electronics and dance-oriented textures.

For:Fans of shoegaze, post-punk, new wave, neo-psychedelia and indie electronic evolution.
