Editors
Having seen Editors twice and having twice faced the reality of how remarkable their live show is, I was encouraged yesterday to hear the long-awaited news that the UK four-piece will be headed to The States soon. This isn't a shocking bit of news, even for a band who hasn't crossed the pond for performances in two long years, as the band has a new album of material [rsl album post] to share with fans.
I have a lot of respect for this band. It's hard to argue with the fact that they were staking a flag in what was indie/alternative mainstream in 2007 and 2008 but pretty much disappeared from the horizon for more than a full year following their last world tour. During that time the band evidently evolved their sound, worked through some new songs and drafted a plan for their future. Editors did the best thing for their fans - they stayed true to their ethos but they reeled in their pop sound just a bit.
The results are clear in the band's favor with In This Light and On This Evening - it works. While some may run opposed to what may appear to be a reversal of direction and sound, from 2007's Editors breakthrough An End Has a Start [RSL Best of 2007], we find that the best of the band shines through here. It's a rejuvenated band and a string of powerful new songs. This band's a winner - catch them on tour!
