Editors Top Hot Hot Heat And Louis XIV

I'll admit it: I haven't been properly keeping up on my NME. A relative newcomer to the Editors party, I hadn't quite grasped how big the Birmingham, U.K. quartet had become since the release of 2005's The Back Room. Yet here they were on a North American tour, taking a headlining spot over tourmates Hot Hot Heat and packing the cavernous Kool...

Editors — An End Has A Start

If anything, bless Editors for remaining consistent. Aside from frontman Tom Smith's hairdo (he appears to be growing quite the impressive Brit-fro), all four members and their epic sound are intact. Sure enough, "epic" is one of those choice adjectives you can still use to sum up Editors' music, along with "sweeping" and...

Editors Nearly Upstaged By Stellastarr*

The lesson learned last Friday night at the Phoenix: never judge a book by its cover or, rather, a band by its overall appearance. First case in point: New York City's Stellastarr*. While the members of the band look like a bunch of art college students — with the exception of the bald, shirtless drummer with the duct-tape asterisk across his...

Editors — The Back Room

If Interpol are the kings of gloom, Editors are their black-clad little brother who's occasionally prone to spastic bouts of ADD. This U.K. quartet have the Ian Curtis drone, sparse guitars and tight drums down to a science, but miraculously they manage to pull ahead of the rest of the post-punk pretenders. "Blood" sounds so frantic and...

Editors Blaze Through Show At Phoenix

I've always felt a little lukewarm about Editors. I was ready to write them off as a one-record band for failing to properly follow up The Back Room when their last effort, An End Has A Start, was released. That happens sometimes — there are countless examples of bands who were deemed "the next big thing" by outlets like Pitchfork...

Editors Become More Complex

in
If you've forgotten about Editors, it's time to be reintroduced. Almost five years after more than fulfilling their label as NME's "Next Big Thing," the British post-rock quartet have been steadily chugging along in the music world, perfecting their dynamic live show and putting the final touches on their third release, In This Light...

Editors - "You Don't Know Love"

in
Talk about a lovers' quarrel. A man fights with his girlfriend/wife in Editors' clip for "You Don't Know Love." Turns out they're both pretty skilled in martial arts and interpretive dancing and eventually burst through a wall to find Editors playing on the other side. The fight continues with biting, swinging and plenty of hair-...

Editors Returning To North America In February

in
If you're a fan of U.K. indie rockers Editors, you may have noticed their tour itinerary has a large gap between their Jan. 7 date in Perth, Australia and their March 6 gig in Lincoln, England. Well, now we have something to go in the middle: A gig on Feb. 8 at the Warfield in San Francisco, California and another at Toronto, Ontario's Phoenix...

Editors — "Papillon"

What at first looks like one guy running from nothing, turns into a bunch of guys running from something unspeakably scary in Editors' clip for "Papillon." The track appears on their upcoming third album, In This Light And On This Evening, out Oct. 12 in the U.K.

Editors: Turn Off The Bright Lights

Britain's post-punk darlings beat sophomore slump and maintain their glorious gloom In a country known for its outlandish, cartoon-y rock stars with their drunken venue trashings, tabloid-baiting big mouths and flashy photos adorning the cover of the NME, Editors must be a pretty unassuming lot among their peers. In the U.K., where Amy...

Editors Don't Understand Joy Division Comparisons

in
Since the North American release of the Editors' The Back Room debut in March 2006, it seems as if they haven't stopped. "We got bored in the couple of months we had off," explains bassist Russell Leetch. "You'd think we'd be looking forward to it, but it got tiring." The band's second album, An End Has A Start, was released...
