Horrorscope is Eve 6's second studio album, recorded at NRG Recording Services in North Hollywood, California. It was released in 2000 through RCA Records.

The album was given a mixed response from critics. At Metacritic, it was given a score of 53 out of 100 based on "mixed or average reviews".[3]

The first single, "Promise", was a hit on alternative rock radio, reaching #3 on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart and #25 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Around this time, "On the Roof Again" made it to #19 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. The follow-up single, "Here's to the Night" was a major mainstream hit in 2001, reaching #30 on the Billboard Hot 100.[9] "Here's to the Night" became a hit at senior proms and graduation parties.

The album was certified Gold by the RIAA in the U.S. and also by the CRIA in Canada in 2001.[10]

The misspelled word "Horrorscope" is not actually used within the album's lyrics; though the chorus of "Sunset Strip Bitch" contains the proper word "horoscope."
