The Horrors (EP)

The Horrors is the self-titled debut extended play (EP) by the English alternative rock band The Horrors. It was released on October 23, 2006, through Loog Records. The EP served as an introduction to the band's raw, garage rock sound, heavily influenced by 1960s garage punk and early horror punk.

The EP features four tracks: "Sheena Is a Parasite," "Death at the Chapel," "Jack the Ripper," and "Horrors Theme." The tracks are characterized by their distorted guitars, Faris Badwan's distinctive vocals, and lyrics dealing with macabre and gothic themes.

The Horrors EP received generally positive reviews, praised for its energy and revivalist take on garage rock. It helped establish The Horrors' early reputation and garnered attention from both critics and audiences, contributing to their subsequent rise to prominence in the UK music scene. The EP is considered a foundational release for the band and a key example of the mid-2000s garage rock revival.
