I used to love this band when they started out. Saw them live just before they got big and bought their first two albums. That distinctive guitar sound(much like Interpol) and Tom Smith's strong voice made it for me. They then decided to change their sound. Their third album never really caught me and they'd lost that unique sound that I liked so much. I lost track of Editors and last year it was announced that lead guitarist Urbanowicz had left the band due to differences in music direction. If they were going to mean anything to me again, my last bit of hope faded.

However, they have returned. A new album(The Weight of Your Love) release is set for July and along side a new lead guitarist my first impression is not bad. "A Ton of Love" is the first single release. Maybe there is still a chance after all for them to convince me again!
