Watch: Editors – The Weight [Best Fit Premiere]

14 June 2013, 10:57 | Written by Lauren Down

Filmed in Nashville during the recording of their fourth studio album The Weight Of Your Love, Editors have revealed the stunning new video for lead track ‘The Weight’.

Directed by James Lockey, brother of guitarist Justin, the black and white footage perfectly suits the quietly brooding atmosphere of the songs: It’s menacing cyclic rhythms, intricate percussion layers and heaving strings cut through with Tom Smiths stark vocals.

‘The Weight’ also features on the digital download of the band’s forthcoming single ‘A Ton Of Love’ which is released on 17 June. The band play London’s Village Underground on 1 July to celebrate the release of The Weight Of Your Love via PIAS.
