Horror is not evidence that the Mekons have given up the fight against the powers that be that has always informed their music. It does sound, however, like they're wondering if they can shout enough to make a difference at a time when it's desperately needed, and it's a question that needs to be addressed, while subtly demanding their listeners prove them wrong.

If the Meeks of the late-'70s were a well-intentioned shambles, Horror feels considered; Sally Timms' space-whispering leavens founder members Jon Langford and Tom Greenhalgh's spiky agit-pop, but their soft-bodied quality persists. Some ugly truths here, but also a quiet testament to comradeship.
