Band of the decade and possibly century so far The Horrors have just announced a tour around England and some of Scotland in December. Calling it a UK tour is perhaps a little misleading, as it features none of Wales or Northern Ireland.
They released their second record, Primary Colours, earlier this year to great acclaim and success, including a 9/10 on this very website.
And why not, there's not a bad note on the whole thing...
Here are those dates, with a mid-section of dates supporting Placebo:
December:
3 - Nottingham, Rescue Rooms
4 - Oxford, O2 Academy 2
6 - Bristol, O2 Academy 2
8 - Birmingham, LG Arena $
9 - London, O2 Arena $
11 - Bridlington, Spa $
12 - Manchester, Central $
13 - Liverpool O2 Academy 2 $
14 - Glasgow, SECC
16 - Sheffield, O2 Academy 2
17 - Portsmouth, Wedgewood Rooms
18 - Brighton, Concorde 2
20 - London, HMV Forum
$ = support for Placebo
Tickets for the tour go on sale on September 4, which is this Friday, and are available from See Tickets.

some of those dates are support dates arent they?
for placebo?
Band of the decade?
Really?... Why?
^agree
new stuff is very underwhelming
I assume there's slight exaggeration intended there
But who knows, maybe they actually think that.
Anyway, new album is very good.
I love 'em to death
but they're not really even band of the year (Animal Collective).
Portsmouth
is tempting. Day before Xmas holz too - I think this is a real prospect!
so bored
of hyperbole on this site.
No Scottish dates either...
obviously they have no fan base in Wales then
cheers boyos.
