Black Gold is the forthcoming best of album from the Birmingham-formed rockers.
The album will contain 13 tracks taken from Editors’ six studio albums, alongside three brand new tunes: Upside Down, Frankenstein and the album’s title track Black Gold.
The three new songs were produced by the Grammy Award-winning Garrett “Jacknife” Lee (U2, Snow Patrol, REM, The Killers), who also produced Editors’ sophomore album An End Has a Start. Watch the official video for Frankenstein below:
