Editors September 7, 2007

Like the sound in groups like Bloc Party and Interpol, Editors filter much of yesteryear's true post-punk (think Joy Division) through today's reality-TV prism. Editors are riding high on the singles 'Munich,' 'Bullets' and 'Blood.' Ra Ra Riot is an amorphous blob that consists of six highly dedicated individuals, each bringing her/his own experiences as both people and musicians to the metaphorical table. Biffy Clyro are the Scottish trio Simon Neil, James Johnston and Ben Johnston. Their sound is described as a heavy but melodic mixture of guitar, bass and drums, with all three band members contributing to vocals. They are known for complex and interwoven guitar picks, strums and melodies, that change many times within each song.
