Normally it wouldn't occur to me to compare the latest indie chancers to a legendary british freakbeat/r+b act- but as The Horrors have done a lame cover of a Syndicats song, it does spring to mind.

I don't get why parents would hate The Horrors- unless it sounds like old people music to them

Here are The Syndicats on telly back in '64

Are The Horrors wilder and more exciting than that?

I know everyone on here sees them as a joke, but its a good excuse for me to post footage of a great band.
