Shock Horror! is a mini-album and the first release by new wave band Katrina and the Waves, released in 1983 by Aftermath Records.
The album was originally credited to the Waves and released only in the UK, later reissued for the first time on CD by US label CGB in 2010.[4][5] The album was recorded by the band that became Katrina and the Waves, but prior to Katrina Leskanich's becoming the band's sole lead vocalist.
