Editors support band?

I think I know 'em.

Giving them the once over on myspace. I've discovered 2 things: they're supporting Tokyo Police Club and the music is quite good. It's debatable though whether or not I'm going to bother pursuing my interest.

You have to, just watch this clip of them:

They're quality!

that video is nothing special in my opinion... it seems kinda bland, theres nothing about them that will make me remember it...

'Ghost Under Rocks' is one of the best tracks I've heard this year, sadly I don't really think the rest of the album is that special. I'll have to give it another couple listens.

The video for Ghost under Rocks is terrible! Nearly out me off the song lol.. i wil admit though the track is pretty damn good. It stands out from the rest of their stuff that i have listened to anway...

yevveh

yeah, the video for biffy's mountains almost did the same. but still, GUR is just awesome, and the rest of the album just sounds too.. poppy. it's sickeningly sweet.

I think one of the main issues for me is that the vocalist reminds me too much of the chap in Vampire Weekend. That causes confusion!

Didn't know who they were but a friend told me to make sure to go an check them out at Electric Picnic, did that and love them now, esp. 'Ghost Under Rocks'. Got the 'Ra Ra Riot EP' on eBay recently too. surprised they haven't been back for a gig in their own right since. the lead singer reminds me of David Koresh though!

I was in the audience for the NBC Conan O Brien show in New York and these guys were the musical guests.

I had never heard of them before this, but since that performance i've come to love ghosts under rock. The noise they made live in that studio was amzeing but it just doeset translate into the TV or youtube as good. Havent got their album as yet but its definetlty on my to do list:D

if ya get a chance to see these guys live definetly go for it.
