OK, one more blast of brutal UK hardcore from another band descended from the all-mighty Voorhees - this is The Horror. Featuring most of the final Voorhees line-up, The Horror continued playing fast and vicious hardcore that took on a somewhat of a Youth Attack vibe - incorporating a bit from bands like Charles Bronson and Das Oath, while retaining a decidedly UK HC sound. Here is basically their entire discography - the two "First Blood" Eps and their two Lps. The early material is the best with "The Fear, The Terror, The Horror" 12" being my favorite release. I must confess that I found the final Lp "Spoils of War" a little flat and uninspiring but that was perhaps in comparison to the outstanding legacy these guys had built up... overall, great stuff.
The Horror - Discography
Thanks for all these cool uk posts mike, just wondering if you also have anything by Boxed In (http://www.discogs.com/artist/331517-Boxed-In) that you can post as well?
ReplyDeleteCertainly... I'm all about 90s UK HC - check out the Flat Earth archive (http://flatearthrecs.blogspot.com/2012/05/archive-of-bloody-everything.html) for a ton of that stuff, including pre-Boxed In bands One By One, Health Hazard and Suffer. I'll post the Boxed In discography soon!
