The Horrors – ‘I See You’

As The Horrors progress in their career, they appear to dig deeper into older music, yet find their own place in it. ‘I See You’, the first song from their fourth album Luminous (May 2nd on XL), sounds part of the late ’80s rock world, as much of Skying did, and like that album, there’s still room for grand gestures, in this case light disco-synths and a dark and sparkling outro. This is a natural continuation of what came before – epic ambient rock with a sweeping of knowledge of historical music in its DNA.
