    The Horrors aren't a bad band and actually a few of the tracks on this debut are okay but the problem is it's all been done before. This is worn-out rock 'n' roll not something totally innovative and in-depth. I wouldn't encourage the purchase of this record for a few reasons: 1. The Horrors are boring, 2. They look like the guys from Motley Crue, and 3. It's The Horrors aren't a bad band and actually a few of the tracks on this debut are okay but the problem is it's all been done before.

  1. Herein lies the beauty of this band: geeky record collectors they may be, but they're quick to impose their feral energy and fierce individuality on proceedings.
  2. After eleven songs, the band’s inability to stretch their sound starts to take its toll.
  3. Better then anyone could have hoped.
