Now The Horrors have also donated a vinyl copy of their excellent fifth album, the fittingly titled V, to give away to one lucky Under the Radar Patreon supporter. One runner-up will get a CD copy. We’ll be picking one random Patreon supporter next Friday, October 20 to win the album. The album was our Album of the Week.

Previously The Horrors’ shared V‘s first single “Machine,” as well as a video for “Machine,” which was followed by the album’s expansive six-minute long closing track, “Something to Remember Me By” (which had euphoric electronic overtones and was our #1 Song of the Week), as well as the almost as expansive (it’s also over six minutes long), but not as dance-y “Weighed Down” (which was also one of our Songs of the Week). Then they shared a video for “Something to Remember Me By” where the band was subjected to strange medical tests.

Paul Epworth (London Grammar, Florence and the Machine, Bloc Party, Adele) produced V at the Church Studios, in North London. It’s the follow-up to 2014’s Luminous.

A previous press release promised that the album is diverse and that the band refuses “to stand still.” As lead singer Faris Badwan puts it in the press release: “It is a risk. But life isn’t much fun without risk. It’s the antithesis of being creative if you know what you’re going to be doing every time.”
