The Horrors: a pair of last-minute shows

The Horrors are a band. A band that sound a bit like Eighties Matchbox, albeit with all the fun removed. Still, some kids, they dig The Horrors, and since DiS is a public service an' all, here's some news about the band in question. The Horrors, you understand. Do try to keep up...

The five-piece - one of them recently attracted a fist to his face, y'know; it made the NME and everything - are to play a couple of capital city shows this weekend: one tonight, and another on Sunday. Yup yup yup...

Tonight's set will be seen and heard at Koko in Camden; it's Club NME's first birthday, so far as we know, and none other than the fella who's writing this 'ere article is disc-jockeying for a wee while. So don't trouble him when he's playing Venetian Snares' remix of 'The Beginning And The End'. Don't dance either, though - you will do yourself an injury.

T'other's at the Coronet Cinema on Sunday (September 24), and it's an Underage Club event.

The Horrors release a new single, 'Count In Fives', on October 30. It'll be available on two different seven-inch records... lolz.
