The Definitive Collection of Halloween Indie Rock Songs
The latest release from the band that is getting good play on the web is the music video to the title track of An End Has A Start.
Here's the band's most recent music video release, "Racing With Rats" - direct from the band's own YouTube page:
During the summer the music video to "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors" has been viewed nearly a half million times just on the band's YouTube page itself.
As sadly ironic as the title is, the song has an element of longing to it, not what you'd expect from a song with the precursor "the saddest thing I've ever seen." No disrespect Tom. It's a great song, but the lyrics are a bit lame. I can show you some things that are far, far sadder. But I get the irony, man.
Still, let's face it, Editors have a great, signature sound, but the lyrics lack the maturity and craftsmanship of many other, lesser known indie song writers. However, it is only fair to say that the lads are fairly new to the scene (circa 2004) and not known for their lyrics as much as they are for their captivating sound.
Nevertheless, the music video for "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors" is nothing special, but worth a watch for fans. Personally, I like the band's earlier videos, especially for "Munich" and "Bullets", two of the songs that really shot the band onto the more mainstream, if you will, indie rock scene.
Lyrics to Editors' "Smoking Outside the Hospital Doors":
So your eyes can't see
Now run as fast as you can
Through this field of trees
Say goodbye to everyone
You have ever known
You are not gonna see them ever again
I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors
Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
How can we wear our smiles
With our mouths wide shut
Cause you stopped us from singing
I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors
Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
Now someone turn us around
Can we start this again?
We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Left smashed on the floor
I can't believe you
If I can't hear you
I can't believe you
If I can't hear you
We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed on the floor
We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed on the floor
Someone turn me around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can I start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed on the floor)
Now someone turn us around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can we start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed on the floor)

Pull The Pin has already reached the top of the album charts in the U.K. and appears to be holding strong.
The album's rapid ascent to the top of the album charts in the U.K. is no surprise considering Stereophonics' name recognition overseas.
Fueling the album sales have been the hit singles "It Means Nothing" and "Monday Bank Holiday". If you'd like to hear more tracks from Pull The Pin, see links below.
While there are no Stereophonics' shows scheduled for North America as of now, the band may have its best chance ever to make an impression on rock fans in the United States, especially if Pull The Pin gets more radio and MTV play.
If you have never heard of Stereophonics, here's your chance to give them a try. Use the Comments section below to voice your impression of the band's music and videos.

Lyrics for "It Means Nothing"
Did we lose ourselves again?Do we take in what's been said?
Do we take the time to be
All the things we said we'd be
And we bury heads in sand
But my future's in my hands
It means nothing
It means nothing
'Cos they love you all the same
They just go by different names
When we fly our flag today
Are you proud or just ashamed?
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
If I haven't got you
If I haven't got you
If I haven't got you
If I haven't got you
And the sun sets in the sky
You're the apple of my eye
If the bomb goes off again
In my brain or on the train
I hope that I'm with you
'Cos I wouldn't know what to do
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
If I haven't got you
If I haven't got you
If I haven't got you
If I haven't got you
