A Tune A Day: The Horror - All I Can Do

Dalen · **Posted:** Thu Jan 26, 2006 8:45 am

Sweden's The Horror have managed to distil some of the coolest music from the last 30 years or so. With their blend of influences including early New York punk bands such as Television, The Modern Lovers and Velvet Underground as well as the British indie scene of the early nineties, and even the current wave of New York music. Some fantastic melodies on this album.

Come on already, I always think of you as NME and times like this I remember why.

I actually love your passion Dalen, but sometimes you need to look at the history of rock and appreciate where it has been...

this is a good album.

Mr. Mister · **Posted:** Fri Jul 07, 2006 3:43 pm

man, it took me forever to get around to this, but now that i've given it a couple of spins, this is actually a pretty solid album, although completely unoriginal. however, i don't even care, it's just an enjoyable, consistent listen. good friday afternoon music.
