The Horrors have revealed they will record their second album with video director Chris Cunningham.
Cunningham, best know for directing music videos for Bjork and Aphex Twin, will produce a record for the first time.
Speaking to XFM, the band’s frontman Faris Rotter explained: “He (Cunningham) hasn’t done music production before but I think it’ll be really special. The results so far are really encouraging.”
Rotter also commented on Cunningham’s inexperience.
He said: “That’s what so brilliant about it – he won’t approach things in the way that so many people will. He’s really into the music we like: y’know – My Bloody Valentine, Dead Can Dance and Squarepusher and I think he’s gonna bring something to the new album that no one else will.”
The as yet untitled follow up to 2007’s ‘Strange House’ is due out this autumn.
