Nearly five decades into their storied career, the Mekons return with Horror, their masterful 2025 release that showcases why this legendary band continues to astound listeners. The apocalyptic overtones that have long defined their music come across as alarmingly real as ever, with their sound, sentiment, and method of delivery blended to perfection by bass player and studio wizard Dave Trumfio.
This indie exclusive white vinyl pressing captures the band's exploration of climate breakdown and dystopian themes through tracks like the "maliciously luscious" 'Fallen Leaves,' featuring Rico's lead vocals and Susie Honeyman's keening violin work. The album draws comparisons to Rolling Thunder-era Dylan and introspective Pogues material, delivering the kind of powerful lyricism and Celtic twilightism that makes the Mekons' songwriting so compelling.
