Tom Smith (Editors)
Hard to believe, but it’s been 20 years since Editors first swept into view with their debut album 'The Back Room'. And while in that time we’ve been treated to two Smith & Burrows LPs – 2011’s 'Funny Looking Angels' and 'Only Smith & Burrows Is Good Enough' in 2021 – and has made a record that really distils the essence of his songs as they come to him.
Following the collision of crunching electronica and sky-scraping rock on Editors’ last album, 2022’s 'EBM', Smith had a wealth of songs, ideas, and threads which he wanted to land a little closer to those more intimate moments of inspiration, which led to his debut solo album 'There Is Nothing In The Dark That Isn't There In The Light'.
Smith might self-deprecatingly refer to the “sad romance” and “miserable hope” within these songs, but as Saturday’s nighttime fades out, you’re ultimately left with a feeling of hope, of the strength we can find in one another, and the fact that when the darkness does finally recede, the light reveals what’s always been there.
