What do you folks think ??

I've also heard Editors called "tedious, one-trick ponies with half a good idea that they used up about two singles in. And no-one should get away with shagging Edith fucking Bowman and retain any credibility whatsoever".
Perhaps it's just the people I hang around with, eh?

You shouldnt use cotton buds to clean out your ears as it tends to just push the wax back in, apparently.
I took that advice about not using cotton buds and didn't use them for a couple of years.The result was my ears got so clogged up i could barely hear a thing.In the end i had to go to the docs and have a lengthy session of syringeing.Took 2 sessions actually.Amazing afterwards though.I could hear every little sound crystal clear.Now i cotton bud my ears out regularly.
Editors though , yeah.Can be a bit tedious at times but they can be pretty good. The Weight Of The World and Push Your Head Towards The Air off the last album are superb.
cotton wool buds in ears.
Never done it. Liam's correct.
i just use a green rubber thimble in the shower, that I brought home from the office.
Works!!

Great live band. The Back Room is a classic.

depends on the action you use shirley?
I'm not sure about that. Then again, it may depend on the position of the wax.
when i attempted to clean them out a few weeks ago, I actually ended up making it worse, and it was a good week, and a very big sneeze to make them pop and get back to normal.
Thought they were Interpol-lite on first hearing BACK ROOM,but I finally bought An End Has a Start the other day.Fooking ace album.

People keep comparing them because Tom Smith baryton voice sounds a bit like Ian's. Nuff said. Ian was unique. Tom is unique. Paul Banks is another story...
I've seen Editors live last night btw...

Paul Banks is another story. Too right, as he's reportedly an item w/ Helena Christensen.
Didn't want to like Editors from the start because of their similarity to JD.
Good though. '06.
finally it does not matter if they sound like JD or not....they are great.
now listening to An End Has a Start (Boom Bip Remix)
