If anyone were ever to suggest that nothing good ever emerges from Southend, to point towards The Horrors as a counter-argument against this would not be a smart move. I’m still bewildered as to what anybody could ever possibly see in this band. They can’t sing, they can’t play their instruments, and they sure as hell aren’t talented songwriters. The Horrors have to be one of the worst bands to have emerged from this country in recent years, and with suitably awful haircuts and clothing tastes – to look at them is almost as torturing as to listen to their music. ‘She Is The New Thing’ will be the most painful 2 minutes 39 seconds of your life should you ever have the misfortune of listening to it, and if you ever happen to tune into your favourite radio station as this one is being announced, be sure to switch to another frequency as a matter of urgency. I really have no time whatsoever for this band, and this new single has done nothing whatsoever to change my mind on the matter.
