Perfect sound of British Indi Rock

Long time since I listened to this. I first saw them live, accidentally, supporting someone in Manchester a while before the album came out. This was always superb...
@D114BCW

@muhgtra2sd
Editors are an amazing band classed as a special and brave band due to their vibe, so akin to Depeche Mode style and very different from the current alternative scene. I might even spot a new rock addiction concerning to the last album, something new got into their work indeed.
@curiositypiqued6573
