New Music - Editors - An End Has A Start
New Music focuses on something just added to the WOXY.com playlist. Today the spotlight is on the new album from Editors, An End Has A Start, which is in stores today in the US.
- This is the second full length album from the band Birmingham, England and follows up their debut album, The Back Room.
- The band met studying Music Technology at Staffordshire University and officially formed and began playing together in 2004.
- Lead singer Tom Smith on the new album “We’ve definitely moved on, it’s definitely not the same record again. It’s much more ambitious. We never felt like we were going through any kind of difficult second album nonsense. We never hit any wall of ‘we don’t have enough singles’ or ‘that sounds shit’. It was all very natural and easy-going.“
Here are a few reviewers quotes about the new album.
- “An End Has A Start actually sounds like it was crafted as ten quite individual chapters of a long-running saga; surprisingly, though, it ultimately works better than its predecessor as a cohesive, flowing album. ” - Drowned In Sound
- “they concoct a gentler, dreamier atmosphere with less apparent anxiety, and create a shadowy veil of sadness, shot through with hopeful transcendence.” - Uncut
- “The songs get puffed and fluffed up but lose the wiry edge of “Munich,” burying Chris Urbanowicz’s guitar until it all sounds like Coldplay. Nice tunes, but louder, please.” - Rolling Stone
