Not only do we have a new interview today with The Horror The Horror, but we've also got an mp3 of their single "Sound of sirens" for your downloading pleasure. IAT contributor Matthew Smith provides the details:
2006 is shaping up to be a big year for The Horror The Horror. The Stockholm quintet just released its debut album on Tapete Records and its second single "I blame the sun". But the song that really got things started for THTH is today's new mp3, "Sound of sirens". The song highlights the best elements of the full album: the jangly, twinned guitars of Mattias Axelsson and Johan Jansson, the crisp, unobtrusive rhythm section of Patrik Thorngren and Jakob Frodell, and the dynamic, urgent vocals of Joel Lindström. The straightforward verses only hint at the hook in the chorus, which makes "Sound of sirens" one of the catchiest things you'll hear. This song has made it to #11 in the FM4 chart in Austria, and expect to hear more from The Horror The Horror as the album gets wider release in the next few months.

The Horror The Horror will be releasing a new single entitled "I blame the sun" on both CD and 7" sometime around New Year's. Look for a video, too.
Here's a nice little 7" that you should try and get hold of. The Horror The Horror sound like a less difficult Television (especially the guitar in "Twice in a lifetime"), and thus a bit like The Strokes. But don't let this scare you now, this is actually so good that I can see these guys becoming quite big, if they manage to keep on making tracks like these. It got that hipster rock sound about it that I never really associate with Sweden but rather Washington or Canada. Only bad thing about this 7" is that there are only two songs on it – I'd like some more fresh and appealing rock like this, please, as soon as possible.

In case you missed it, this band was selected as one of the highlights from the "Songs we have learned to sing" compilation which was reviewed here. In related news, THTH just signed with Germany's Tapete Records, so act fast if you want those mp3s because I've been warned they might need to take 'em offline.
