Nine Inch Nails lynchpin Trent Reznor has heaped worthy praise on The Horrors, hailing their new album 'Primary Colours' as the “greatest thing” he has heard in a “long time”.

Speaking on Twitter, the 43-year-old urged his 450,000 followers to go out and buy the acclaimed record, released last month.

Providing a link to amazon.com, he wrote last night: “Be sure to get The Horror's new record 'Primary Colours' RIGHT NOW. The greatest thing I've heard in a long time.”

As if XL Recordings weren't rubbing their hands with glee enough, in a later post Reznor no doubt boosted record sales again by reiterating “It's amazing”.
