The Horrors Bringing 'Skying' on North American Tour

BY Josiah HughesPublished Jun 13, 2011

As previously reported, UK goth pop quintet the Horrors are set to return with a brand new album, Skying, this summer. With all that new material, it would be a shame to sit around at home, which is why the band have revealed plans for a full world tour.


 With dates in the UK, Europe, Asia and throughout North America, they've got quite a trip planned. For Canadians, the Horrors have three shows lined up: one in Toronto, another in Montreal and a final Canuck stop in Vancouver.

Skying will be available on July 26 via XL. That's its cover above, and if you haven't heard it yet, lead single "Still Life" can be streamed below.

Thanks to Consequence of Sound for the tip.
