Horrorfilm Horizon is a pop/rock duo composed of twin sisters Karyn and Katrina Regalna.
About Karyn[edit | edit source]
Karyn Regalna, born approximately 15 minutes before twin sister Katrina, is known as the "nice one" of the two. She grew up a fairly quiet and reserved girl, and studied hard in school. She began playing the piano at age 5, which led her to dreams of becoming a concert pianist when older. A few years later, she began writing and singing as well. She joined the school choir in high school and became music obsessed. She currently lives in Birmingham, England, in an apartment with Katrina.
About Katrina[edit | edit source]
Katrina Regalna, barely the older of the two, is generally considered much more brash than Karyn. Unlike Karyn, she was a loud and troublemaking child. She often got detention in school and was suspended from two different schools for fighting with others constantly. In high school, she dropped out and joined a garage band from London, but later was forced to leave the band and go back to school by her parents. She began to pick up on music when she learned the piano and guitar while grounded during one summer.
Katrina's sexual orientation has often been disputed, but she claims that she is neither straight nor lesbian, but rather bisexual. In May of 2008, she married her girlfriend Amy Marshall, and Amy gave birth to their first child Katramy Marshall-Regalna. Karyn serves as babysitter for the child while the parents aren't able to watch over her. The pair's relationship is seen as strange as the two still often have sex with others outside of the marriage with each other's permission, claiming it keeps things "fresh and exciting".
Career[edit | edit source]
After the two sisters began to find a common interest in music, they decided to form a duo together and began writing and recording demos in their house's basement. After they found a manager and other business folk to promote them, they recorded their debut album The Silhouettes Of Saints & Sinners, which was a year and a half long process. They got signed to Alias Records in January 2008 and released their debut single "Tamper With the Evidence" the same month, which garnered them much attention as well as a top five hit. The album was released the same week as their second single "Alone On A Saturday" the following April. The album went on to sell around 800,000 copies, and gave the duo a top five hit as well as three top tens.
The two also became noted for hosting TRL for several months, beginning at the start of 2008. They have also released a clothing line called 'DESTRUCTION', which has become quite popular.
Their sophomore album Cyanide Playhouse was released in June of 2009.
