There was recently a resurrected Interpol thread about their last album Antics, and in response to a request for other bands like Interpol and Joy Division, many of us including myself suggested the Editors debut as being a good match. And listening to it again yesterday, I'm left thinking that the match is too good. It does have that Joy Division meets Echo & The Bunnymen via the Chameleons kind of sound that has gotten so popular, but doesn't really seem to go beyond being a copy of that sound. Actually, a copy of Interpol's copy of that sound. Anyone else feel this way? Or is that just being too critical? Admittedly I do like it as I'm kind of a sucker for all those swirling guitars and Ian Curtis vocals, but geez guys it would be nice to add a touch of your own personality in the mix
