Not very good live . . . No range from singer, instruments very dull, the studio does wonders for these guys (sadly) but good shit all the same, just need a bit of volume live!!
you could compare interpol and editors in ´05, in the antics and back room time, but only considering genre and the singers´ voices. their live perfomances and lyrics are almost antigonistic. and now they both have a really original style. i love them both but for different reasons. interpol songs are beautiful but also heartbreaking and disturbing, editors songs are beautiful and comforting.
i think, they should not be compared to interpol, they have a big margin of difference on their music styles, they're both post-punk revival, but they differ on how they deliver their music on their fans,listeners and audience. thats the only difference.
@742512345689 A sweeping statement like that makes you out to be ignorant man. Plenty of good stuff out there if you look and listen hard enough, including Editors.
i've seen them just yesterday here in italy.. i must say that i prefer them live, cause they're so powerful. better than on cd! great!! fingers in tha factories the best :)
dont know if anyone can help me out there, i heard a song that sample the guitar on this song, it was sorta like an electronic type song, no singing, though it had a female voice through out the song.... anyone know what im talking out?
Nice thinking ................. but you might be very wrong. Have seen both bands about 8 times now, and they continue to be equally thrilling ..... ;-).
this is a great band for those who says tha there are no good bands in this times. editors and interpol are two different bands,i like both but editors more than interpol. its a matter of tastes
well he did just perform on stage to a load of people, can you blame him for wanting to get out and sit down, you don't even fully know the guy do you, and to be fair, the music should make up for it, you cant say that they aren't absolutely brilliant
i said congrats for goodness sake, its not like i said they werent good. it would have been alright if he had ignored us but telling us to get out his way is quite gay.
anyway ye editors are brillaint but i don't know about 'absolutely' brilliant
great band, the song makes me very emotional, in my opinion this version is better then the studio version, probably because of the drums. great job, guys! thanks for posting
the lead is doing a good David Gedge, reminds me of Joy Division or Bauhaus. great stuff, glad to see there are bands out there who are doing the post-punk 80's style
Totally agree, I mean its a post-punk voice, of course the voices are similar, not 100%. Interpol's technique on guitar is 100% different than Editors. Editors mainly use a lo-fi like sound on guitar while Interpol is pretty much natural reverb (with delay) with some effects thrown in here and there. Also, Carlos D. is probably the best indie-rock post/punk bassist ever and so cleverly comes up with incredible riffs that are out of the box.
Hmm, does anyone alse just hear Ian Curtis when this guy sings? The drums even sound like "She's Lost Control", but I suppose imitation is flattery. I like it.
Editors are a great band who don't deserve their interpol-lite nickname. They have their own unique sound and it rocks!!! Interpol are so much better though i have to admit
Interpol is my favorite band so I appreciate that but I think Editors are way better live. At least as far as their vocalists go. I'd have to say this guys more consistent than anything I've ever heard from Banks. Having said that, as someone who has yet to purchase an Editors album, it's hard to top Interpol. I will be buying some Editors stuff shortly however.

For those who think this was at this year's edition of Pukkelpop, no - this was in 2005 when they didn't play on the Main Stage (like this year) but at the Marquee. Great video! Thanks for posting!
Are you saying that Jenny was a friend of mine sounds like this song? you gotta be kidding me... totally different songs... different tempo, different chords, different melody...
whre the fuck do shits like you lot get your rocks off. You are truly shit. Psychedelic Furs did everything you do 15 years since but ten times better...grow up you sad cunts...I hated them too...but liked them 10 times the amount I like you fuckers

Actually using the capo allows some really nice chord voicings for some of the keys they play in. It's nice b/c he can play all open pretty much. It sounds great that way. I'm gonna start using that for my writing.
Editors have more potential than Interpol... Also, their last album was excellent!
