Editors, formerly known as Snowfield, hail from all over the country but settled in Birmingham in the autumn of 2003. the new band found themselves with a clutch of tracks that will form the basis of their debut album, due later in 2005.

Drawing on their love of early REM, Joy Division and Echo and the Bunnymen, Editors honed an identifiably English sound focused on the grand themes of love, loss and redemption.
