Last Friday, British rock quintet, Editors dazzled Jay Leno's audience with "Smokers Outside the Hospital Doors," the first single off their latest album, An End Has a Start. The song boasts a powerful progression of soulful piano, brooding drums and expressive vocals. Below is their cinematic video for the tune, which follows a little girl as she escapes from a hospital, takes refuge with hookers, and walks on water.

I'm a very happy man. Editors are my favourite band of the last couple of years and, with this their second album, have produced the masterpiece of which I knew they were capable. 'An End Has A Start' transcends their debut 'The Back Room', in all areas. Building on that solid foundation of songcraft, and using the lessons learnt to explore their abilities and reaching out for new clarity and expression. Editors announced their arrival on the music scene in 2005 with the maxim "we're misery on the dancefloor", and it served them brilliantly. The stream of singles [...]

There are a lot of inexplicable go-to obsessions in the music blogosphere: The constant album-cover polls, for example. And the non-stop use of the word "totally," as in "I totally want to know what you think of this album cover!" But nothing is more aggravating than when a middling artist lucks into a dry record-release schedule and, by virtue of nothing else going on, suddenly becomes the BEST! BAND! EVER! This month, it's Editors . What gives? Musically, you can't say anything about Editors that hasn't already been said a [...]

We're real big Editors fans on the Rant. So we're nothing less than stoked about their sophomore album, An End Has A Start , which is due out on June 25th. I can't imagine anyone accusing Editors of aping Joy Division anymore. The first single from the album is "Smokers Outside The Hospital Doors". The song is a mixed bag for me. It's got an undeniably epic sound to, as lead singer Tom Smith emotes all over icy guitar work courtesy of Chris Urbanowicz. The song would [...]
Of the tracks we've heard , this was a poor choice for a first single, Editors. But the vid clearly demonstrates the band's cinema-rock ambitions, telling the tale of a girl on the run and recalling a far-less apocalyptic Children Of Men (or maybe that's 'cause we just watched that flick again the other day ... so good). Sweet Jesus that girl walks on water! No wonder those doctors are chasing her. Graphic designers can check the mustard yellow centrifugal motion of the An [...]
Neo-post-punk quartet the Editors formed in 2003. Originally dubbed Snowfield, the group comprised singer/guitarist Tom Smith, lead guitarist Chris Urbanowicz, bassist Russell Leetch, and drummer Ed Lay, all music technology students at Britain's Stafford University who relocated to Birmingham after graduation. A series of a well-received club dates and a single demo tape earned the Editors the interest of British labels large and small, and after a bidding frenzy the group signed to a revitalized Kitchenware, the venerable British indie once home to Prefab Sprout. Kitchenware issued their debut single, "Bullets," in early January 2005 and the record [...]
