It's getting really boring to come onto a Horror's video and have most of the Youtube comments filled with anything but what incredible music they actually make.
I hate the fact that they had things thrown at them during the AM tour. Fucking morons, glad Alex Turner had a go at all of them though onec the Monkeys went on stage.
Faris mentioning Disintergration from the Cure is awesome. I really love the sound of that album and songs like Last Dance are a bit in the style of the Primary Colours album imo.
ahhh looove them! they are so amazing live. it's such a shame i never saw them when they were touring for their fist album :( now they only play thier new songs, which is ok because they are all so amazing!
I LOVE how Rhys speaks - "The new album is coming along tremendously." And how Joshua avoids looking directly at the camera as much as possible...so freaking adorable.
Ok....these dudes are to be aplauded for havin'some amount of success,but they won't be around in 5 years, why......?,because they suck. The notion to call oneself Rotter....Only two people have the right to do that .The original Rotter ,and Me,who's coming from Rotterdam ☻▬
please shut up. you are obviously a sad and pathetic person if you even bothered to post this for multiple videos... if you don't like them so much, LEAVE THEM ALONE. They are also awesome people to their fans, so again shut your face.
Wowie Zowie....so sorry...I'll leave them alone. How can you listen to this second hand shite,when you can listen to Jesus and Mary Chain, Stooges, Velvet Underground,Early Cure-Bowie. This stuff is soooo contrived.You'll agree with me in a years' time.Trust me,Even Rotter himself aknowledges he'll never make it big.
I sort of never liked Tom that much cause he never had the wicked hair, but whenever he opens his mouth I love him. However, Joshua will always be my fave
Joshua. Veil, Joshua. I very nearly missed and had to go back again for everything he said because I was so distracted by that... I really, really want one now! I'd take a Joshua, too...
seriously people, calm downn Jeez!!! i ♥ the horrors, they are may favorite band and i try and get as many people to like them as they can, and yeah horrors are DIY and they are fuckin amazing live but ppl can like other bands as well tho!!! NO GOD DAMN ARGUEMENTS!!!!!
oh god YOU do not know shit,im gona namedrop jst to shut ur mouth and posibly block all the shit thats come out of it:lightning bolt,aids wolf,scratch acid,a place to bury strangers,xbxrx,exmodels,deerhunter,MBV,brainiac,noxagt,big black,that fucking tank,arab on radar,made in mexico,hot girl cool guys,night wounds,chinese stars,pre,pink&brown,oxes,meltbanana,jupiter,daughters,the locust,wolf eyes,and a big chunk of other bands will kick yourand this shity trendy bands ass any fuckin time live
I don't see a single correlation between your rant and my comment that I think they're the best band live. APTBS, The Locusts,and My Bloody Valentine are all valid bands to say you liked live, but does that really mean you have to turn yourself into a pretentious name-dropping prick by spouting a trillion and one bands? Don't get so defensive, it makes you look desperate. If you want to, I can mimick you and list all the good bands I've seen just to show you how immature you come off.
oh no man, i jst had to turn myself into a pretentious prick to pretty much back up the fact that pretty much 'everybody' is better live than the horrors including narcissistic shows like radiohead, and well if the horros are DIY then these bands i mentioned are fucking charity
DIY = do it yourself. they write their own (genius) songs, don't use any special effects at their show, don't pretend to be anything more than what they are, and WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING?
"and well if the horros are DIY then these bands i mentioned are fucking charity"
dude, its simple, this band its not an indie diy band, theyv taken tours from the fucking NME, apeared on popworld, and dont carry theyr own fuckin equipment, google fort thunder and shut the fuck up, fucking U2 write theyr own songs, are they an independent diy band???. i meant charity in the way charities dont take profits.
the whole thing about the horrors is jst one big gimmick
best live band? i love the horros, but mate, give muse a go. they kick ass live, have amazing light shows, and bellamy moves so well witht he music. some bands use effects to hide their bad msuic, but muse plays 5x better than the album, they use cool ass effects to give everyone orgasms. ive seen them live 3 times, all 3 they were effin increidbile. no lie.
I love Muse and would kill to see them live! But the best band I've seen live so far is Nekromantix... where it was more about the energy rather than the effects. In fact... there were no effects. XD
I think The Horrors would be the same sort of thing... which I sort of prefer. It's intimidating sometimes to see bands like Muse live....
like i said ive seen the horros liv.e from bands ive seen, which is the following: bloc party, the killers, the wombats, the pigeon detectives, tokyo police club, sons and daughters, louis XIV, hot hot heat, editors, muse, the last shadow puppets, and death cab for cutie.
Don't get me wrong I love the Horrors , but no one can deny they have become completly main stream in Europe and if there wasa Hot Topic line there , they would fill their stores with Horrors apparel.
I love this band. and I understand what you are saying and I agree. now Im from the U.S and I love this band some of my friends listen to them and i just started to love them recently but in American they are currently not very popular I don't think..I saw one T-shirt for them on the Hot Topic website but I don't think ive ever seen anything of theirs in the actual hot topic store. i love them though. hope they don't get like the Misfits. I hate how there is so much Misfits garbage apparel
I think the reason you have seen one tshirt of them is beacuse I think they only have one tshirt. "i am a horror" right?
But I beat you, I live north in Norway and noone here had heard of them before I started listening to them. (Noone near here, ofcourse there are some others too here )
Why do people care if they become mainstream or not? why WOULDN'T you want a band, that you like, to receive success? you people are all ridiculous. Consider suicide.
"Why do people care if they become mainstream or not? why WOULDN'T you want a band, that you like, to receive success? you people are all ridiculous. Consider suicide. "
In this buisness sucess is to make good money but still be mostly underground , it's easy to become mainstream and make big money you just need to advertise a lot , and basically sell out. Learn about the music buisness before you talk.
Who are you to define "success", every band has a different definition to that word when it comes to there music, your not the King of the Music Business so don't act like you are. This is when it comes down to the "fans" and the Hipster "I ONLY LISTEN TO INDIE MUSIC, AND BANDS WHO HAVE LESS THAN 1,000 VIEWS ON THEY'RE MYSPACEEEE"-fans.
Your an idiot , I was quoting YOU for defining succes this is YOUR QUOTE RIGHT HERE:
"Why do people care if they become mainstream or not? why WOULDN'T you want a band, that you like, to receive success? you people are all ridiculous. Consider suicide. "
YOU defined sucess not I , so your comment is basically insulting yourself but nice try.
I never defined success, I said "Why do people care if they(The Horrors) become mainstream or not?
Then said "Why wouldn't you want a band you like to receive success?" were in any of that did I say "Success would be to maintain your underground credit while still making money" You need to read the comment to understand it.
And you really shouldn't be calling and one an idiot when you can't spell.
And staying underground while making enough money to tour and have food and be able to get a hotel if you need too is a hell of a lot harder then trying to become as mainstream as possible.
do you want bands to have a difficult existence? also, the horrors aren't trying to become mainstream. they just want to make music. and if they're not underground enough for your personal tastes, its hardly their fault. they're not selling out just cos they're diversifying their sound.
It's impossible to just make music and not become mainstream , you NEED To make media deals and gain publicity and any band that does that obviously is selling out , giving into the media for money. Your also terribley mistaken for thinking that bands that are underground make shitty music on perpose to stay underground , why the fuck would anyone make a band if that was their point of making a band? The only way to become mainstream again , is by giving into the media. It's that simple.
mate, that makes not sense at all. you said 'its impossible to just make music and not become mainstream' which is completely contradicting everything you said about how they 'chose' to sell out. you said yourself they need to make media deals and gain publicity. they need people to buy their music so they can afford to keep making it. if they NEED to do it, as you said, how is that in any way selling out? and you said they should make their music purposefully underground just to remain so.
right. so my favourites on youtube are obviously the only bands i like. i only favourite songs i don't have the cds of. half the bands i love you won't have heard of. (bridezilla, ghostwood, mercy arms, little red, red riders, the tellers, the brightlights, shy child, sparkadia, whitley). you should learn not to make assumptions of people and know that just cos i happen to like a bit of mainstream music, doesn't mean thats all i listen to.
and all your favourites are pit bulls and tigers attacking people, so i'm just going to assume you're too thick to have a decent thought process at all.
once again you make no sense. I never said LET'S GET THE HORRORS TO BE MAINSTREAM AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!
I said "Why would you want them to be....", now your just not making any sense at all.
And I wouldn't have a problem with your spelling if you didn't try and degrade my intelligence. I'm all for people speaking they're opinions but at LEAST TRY and sound intelligent when doing so. Not putting words into other's mouths and trying to sounds better than others.
nothing wrong with wanting to be successful. are you one of those awful people who'll start hating a band as soon as they start becoming liked? people like that who regard 'indie ethics' so highly that as soon as a band gets famous they hate them annoy me to no end.
Bands don't just suddenly become famous. They choose too become famous by selling out and trying to become as big as possible , if the Horrors wanted too they could make their music and try to stay undereground but instead they just want money.
i think you'll find bands become famous because people like their music. making music specifically so people don't like it so it can stay underground and have indie cred or whatever is ridiculous. also, please the learn correct use of the word 'too'. didn't you go to school?

Don't get me wrong I love the Horrors , but no one can deny they have become completly main stream in Europe and if there wasa Hot Topic line there , they would fill their stores with Horrors apparel.

I love this band. and I understand what you are saying and I agree. now Im from the U.S and I love this band some of my friends listen to them and i just started to love them recently but in American they are currently not very popular I don't think..I saw one T-shirt for them on the Hot Topic website but I don't think ive ever seen anything of theirs in the actual hot topic store. i love them though. hope they don't get like the Misfits. I hate how there is so much Misfits garbage apparel

I think the reason you have seen one tshirt of them is beacuse I think they only have one tshirt. "i am a horror" right?
But I beat you, I live north in Norway and noone here had heard of them before I started listening to them. (Noone near here, ofcourse there are some others too here )

Why do people care if they become mainstream or not? why WOULDN'T you want a band, that you like, to receive success? you people are all ridiculous. Consider suicide.

"Why do people care if they become mainstream or not? why WOULDN'T you want a band, that you like, to receive success? you people are all ridiculous. Consider suicide. "
In this buisness sucess is to make good money but still be mostly underground , it's easy to become mainstream and make big money you just need to advertise a lot , and basically sell out. Learn about the music buisness before you talk.

Who are you to define "success", every band has a different definition to that word when it comes to there music, your not the King of the Music Business so don't act like you are. This is when it comes down to the "fans" and the Hipster "I ONLY LISTEN TO INDIE MUSIC, AND BANDS WHO HAVE LESS THAN 1,000 VIEWS ON THEY'RE MYSPACEEEE"-fans.

Your an idiot , I was quoting YOU for defining succes this is YOUR QUOTE RIGHT HERE:
"Why do people care if they become mainstream or not? why WOULDN'T you want a band, that you like, to receive success? you people are all ridiculous. Consider suicide. "
YOU defined sucess not I , so your comment is basically insulting yourself but nice try.
roflnty 3 years ago
I never defined success, I said "Why do people care if they(The Horrors) become mainstream or not?
Then said "Why wouldn't you want a band you like to receive success?" were in any of that did I say "Success would be to maintain your underground credit while still making money" You need to read the comment to understand it.
And you really shouldn't be calling and one an idiot when you can't spell.

Spelling is srs buisnezz on the interwebz!!!
And staying underground while making enough money to tour and have food and be able to get a hotel if you need too is a hell of a lot harder then trying to become as mainstream as possible.
roflnty 3 years ago
do you want bands to have a difficult existence? also, the horrors aren't trying to become mainstream. they just want to make music. and if they're not underground enough for your personal tastes, its hardly their fault. they're not selling out just cos they're diversifying their sound.
itgirlragdoll93 3 years ago
It's impossible to just make music and not become mainstream , you NEED To make media deals and gain publicity and any band that does that obviously is selling out , giving into the media for money. Your also terribley mistaken for thinking that bands that are underground make shitty music on perpose to stay underground , why the fuck would anyone make a band if that was their point of making a band? The only way to become mainstream again , is by giving into the media. It's that simple.
roflnty 3 years ago
mate, that makes not sense at all. you said 'its impossible to just make music and not become mainstream' which is completely contradicting everything you said about how they 'chose' to sell out. you said yourself they need to make media deals and gain publicity. they need people to buy their music so they can afford to keep making it. if they NEED to do it, as you said, how is that in any way selling out? and you said they should make their music purposefully underground just to remain so.

All your favorites are mainstream bands so I'm just going to assume your to biased to have a decent arguement.
roflnty 3 years ago
right. so my favourites on youtube are obviously the only bands i like. i only favourite songs i don't have the cds of. half the bands i love you won't have heard of. (bridezilla, ghostwood, mercy arms, little red, red riders, the tellers, the brightlights, shy child, sparkadia, whitley). you should learn not to make assumptions of people and know that just cos i happen to like a bit of mainstream music, doesn't mean thats all i listen to.
itgirlragdoll93 3 years ago
and all your favourites are pit bulls and tigers attacking people, so i'm just going to assume you're too thick to have a decent thought process at all.
itgirlragdoll93 3 years ago
once again you make no sense. I never said LET'S GET THE HORRORS TO BE MAINSTREAM AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!
I said "Why would you want them to be....", now your just not making any sense at all.
And I wouldn't have a problem with your spelling if you didn't try and degrade my intelligence. I'm all for people speaking they're opinions but at LEAST TRY and sound intelligent when doing so. Not putting words into other's mouths and trying to sounds better than others.

"I'm all for people speaking they're opinions"
Nice spelling , I'm sure you can find what I am talking about , I shortned my quote of your words to this little bunch of words.
roflnty 3 years ago
I see nothing wrong with my spelling, I have have used the wrong there, but that would fall under as a Grammatical error :]
Are you a troll?

Do you even like The Horrors?

Why do the Horrors want to become just like mcr and panic!? Their fans basically suck now.
roflnty 3 years ago
why would the horrors want 2 b like mcr or panic - theyre crap
the horrors never said they wanted 2 b like them
ohwheniknow 3 years ago 7
They are becoming just as mainstream and starting to sell out. Well , exept the part that I never liked mcr or panic and that I love the Horrors.

You havent even heard the new album - how do you know they're selling out?
OrangeMoleRat 3 years ago
nothing wrong with wanting to be successful. are you one of those awful people who'll start hating a band as soon as they start becoming liked? people like that who regard 'indie ethics' so highly that as soon as a band gets famous they hate them annoy me to no end.
itgirlragdoll93 3 years ago
Bands don't just suddenly become famous. They choose too become famous by selling out and trying to become as big as possible , if the Horrors wanted too they could make their music and try to stay undereground but instead they just want money.
roflnty 3 years ago
i think you'll find bands become famous because people like their music. making music specifically so people don't like it so it can stay underground and have indie cred or whatever is ridiculous. also, please the learn correct use of the word 'too'. didn't you go to school?
