Editors are a British indie rock/post-punk revival band from Birmingham, England, composed of Tom Smith (lyricist/vocalist/guitarist/pianist), Chris Urbanowicz (guitarist), Russ Leetch (bass guitarist) and Ed Lay (drummer), who met while studying at Staffordshire University, in Stafford, England during 2003. They take their inspiration from bands such as Echo & The Bunnymen, R.E.M., Joy Division and Elbow. Many people cite New York band Interpol as an influence but this has been adamantly denied by the band. bron: last.fm
