the horrors - "death at the chapel" (from the death at the chapel single, import available for purchase here.)

i'll tell you one thing : the horrors don't sound like the libertines.

... which is exceedingly rare for a rock band getting a lot of publicity in the uk these days. "death at the chapel" is basically a motorcycle crash tricked out to sound like early bad seeds, right down to the haircuts, only nick's literary aspirations are replaced w/ splatter film appreciation. it's not quite goth, though goth it seems is on the ascendant again; no, it's more like monster garage, w/ a cover of "crawdaddy simone" on the flip.

&, man, can they scream!
