The Horrors + Crocodiles
The fashionably goth looking UK band The Horrors have managed to bridge the gap between the nistas and the Siouxsies. Although they may look a bit depressed in a Sisters of Mercy kinda way, their sophomore album Primary Colours has brought in the etherealness of Portishead’s Geoff Barrow and the creativeness of video director Chris Cunningham…the result, pure, accessible shoegaze…who knew they had a softer side! San Diego duo Crocodiles open.
