British five-piece Editors are releasing a new album, Violence, on March 9 via Play It Again Sam. Previously they shared a video for its first single, “Magazine.” Now they have shared a video for another song from the album, “Hallelujah (So Low).” Watch it below, followed by their upcoming U.S. tour dates.
The album is the follow-up to 2015’s In Dream. Leo Abrahams (Wild Beasts, Florence & The Machine, Frightened Rabbit) and Editors produced Violence, with additional production from Benjamin John Power (Blanck Mass, Fuck Buttons). Rahi Rezvani directed the “Hallelujah (So Low)” video.
Editors frontman Tom Smith had this to say about the single in a press release: ‘I wrote the words to ‘Hallelujah (So Low)’ when I got back from a trip with Oxfam, visiting refugee camps in Northern Greece. It was obviously an incredibly moving trip, seeing people living in dust, surviving only on the help of others was very moving. Musically the track hung on the relationship between the acoustic guitar and the drum machine, that was part of the track from my demo, it had something special very early on…then when Justin came up with his outrageous guitar riff we knew we had a winner. It’s the most ‘rock’ we’ve ever been and it’s exhilarating. I think the video attempts to capture this intensity, both in the track and in us as a live band.’
