Might be unfair to dismiss this after first listen, but i can't bring me to listen this album again, which says something about it. Even if i kinda like hallelujah.

That been said, i really liked their first two albums, that's why i keep checking them, but i might stop to.

Y'all are so harsh! I've listened through it 5 or 6 times and it's a fine album. The few times it start to drag are salvaged by unexpected electronic passages. Editors albums have shifted from "singles+filler" (their first 3) to being consistently good-but-not-great (their last three). It's nice for "No Sound But the Wind" to finally get a formal release here. The piano version (which is also how they played it on the Twilight New Moon soundtrack) is crystalline and effective, though I miss the upbeat synth version they used to play live.

I have a feeling that Muse will sound similar to that in their next release. God give us strength

'Editors albums have shifted from "singles+filler" (their first 3) to being consistently good-but-not-great (their last three).'

literally the exact opposite

You go back to their first three for "Well Worn Hand," "Fall," and "The Boxer"? The early albums have pretty timeless singles ("Munich," "Blood," "An End Has a Start," "Papillon," most would say "Smokers" too) and lots of other great tracks but the LPs after that are way more cohesive, especially the theatrical atmosphere of In Dream. It's hard to argue that "Hallelujah" or "Life Is a Fear" have a lasting impact as singles but they work great on their respective albums. That's certainly supported by Editors' charting history, as the first batch of singles performed way better than the newer ones (which barely charted anywhere outside of Belgium), while the albums dropped far less dramatically over time.

This album has nothing anywhere near as good as 'No Harm' from In Dream
