Ever since I got my hands on Editors first single, “Munich” and their debut album The Back Room in early 2005, I began to sing the praises of this band left and right. I just can’t get enough, and it seems I am not alone in my love. During the first round of Editors hype, I heard all the noise of, “Oh they sound like Interpol, who needs another Interpol?” But recently, the tide of comparison has, to my pleasant surprise, started to turn into an embrace. It’s a strong, intense, and ferocious debut that intensifies in their live show according to recent reports. NYC’s Mercury Lounge and Rothko hosted sold-out shows by the band recently and Editors left bodies of fans in their wake.
This album, still tragically only available as an import, will soon find its way into the U.S. via Kitchenware’s distribution deal with Sony/BMG. It couldn’t come soon enough. Here’s a chance for you to hear what all the hoo hah is about for yourselves.
While I’m here, I think I’ll throw in some B-Sides for you to hear as well. Check out “Find Yourself A Safe Place”, “French Disko”, “Let Your Good Heart Lead You Home”, “Heads In Bags”, “Come Share The View”, and “I Buried The Devil”. I don’t think any further evidence is necessary as to how magnificent they are, but I’ll gladly hear more as it comes along.
For now, you can still purchase all of their material as import. It is money well spent.
