Skying is the third studio album by British band the Horrors. The album was released on 11 July 2011 in the UK and on 9 August 2011 in the US on XL Recordings. Recorded by the band in their self-built London studio, it is the first album the band produced themselves. Two months prior to its release, the song "Still Life" was premiered on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show, where it was played in its entirety and named as his "Hottest Record in the World"

Skying is The Horrors’ third album and definitely their best. It’s big, spacey and souring, scattered with intermittent piercing blasts and weaving rhythm. There are times when there’s a bit too much canvas, but when it comes to an end it sort of feels rewarding. Dive In is all echoing arpeggio electric with a simple drum beat. It’s got a lot of space in parts, but on an album called Skying, that’s sort of to be expected. However, Dive In ends with growing intensity that makes it what it is. The roving keys at the start of Still Life are class, patched over a slow bass-line and pierced with eighties style baggy synth hooks.

Skying is the work of a band that's living up to the hype, just after the fact. And considering the trajectory that Skying shows they're on, maybe the Horrors won't just ultimately match the expectations of them, but maybe top them.

The main remnant of Primary Colours is that album’s atmospheric yet detailed production, which the Horrors embellish further with dense layers of synth, guitars, and vocals.
