• Track Listing

Limited vinyl LP pressing. After a string of Natural Snow Buildings reissues, each more elaborate then the last, Ba Da Bing presents their first ever release of new material from the band. For a group known for its use of horror imagery and lyricism, perhaps the most shocking thing of all is that this album clocks in at just under 45 minutes. If there ever was a release that served as the proper entry point for Natural Snow Buildings, Terror's Horns is it. It would be a stretch to call this Mehdi Ameziane and Solange Gularte's pop record, for Terror's Horns continues the duo's tradition of combining many layers into sometimes blissful, sometimes contemplative, often menacing conditions. Stringed instruments trill, percussion gongs, feedback hisses and vocals maintain near monotone as if in a cultish trance. The songs still unveil themselves slowly, and the album's progression lends the impression of descending down through the depths, past hidden cavities and chambers never to be unseen once experienced. Terror's Horns features new artwork by Gularte that pays tribute to the backwoods horror of massacres involving chainsaws.
