On Repeat Since 2009 – British Post-Punks THE HORRORS With Hypnotizing Krautrocker ‘SEA WITHIN A SEA’

31 May 2024

British post-punks THE HORRORS from Southend-on-Sea had their biggest
moment, so far, with their 2nd LP Primary Colors that came out in 2009.
It put them on the European indie map.

The track I always go back to is the almost 8-minute
closer SEA WITHIN A SEA (more than 12 million streams
on Spotify, half of which are mine. Just kidding).

It’s a repetitive, addictive, and hypnotizing synth-Kraut-rock trip that goes
on like forever and ever and puts you slowly but surely in a trance.

3 LPs and two EPs followed, but no sign of musical life since 2021.

Ecstatic live performances

The Horrors‘s best song to Turn Up The Volume‘s ears. This cool live version
in Amsterdam (2009) is magnetic, mind-twisting and messy at times…

Sea Within A Sea‘ was the closing track of their second album Primary Colours (2009)
