Editors go all Eighties-ish

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

Editors go all Eighties-ish

Not everyone's liked band, while others see a similarity to Interpol - I also went off them after a turdish second album and seeing Tom Smith a hopping on his key boards and retarding it live, but nice sounding new album being previewed at the moment. Lots of 80s Roland synths and drum machines replacing the band's previous guitar sound.

Sorry the link is fucked up. URL address is correct.

Certainly. Joy Division as well. Even reminds me of A-ha (Hunting High and Low album) for some of the synth sounds.

Next person to mention the Comsats gets punched in the nads.

I was thinking the same exact thing.

That sounds interesting about the Editors, I was never too into them based on the first 2 albums (they sound way too much like Interpol, or vice versa), but I'll have to check out the new stuff.

Comsats .
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Ive got Electrabunnys photo as my wallpaper
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.
