Celebrating the release of their sixth studio album, British rockers Editors have announced a full headline tour running across the UK in October 2018.

Violence follows In Dreams, released in 2015. The band launched onto the indie scene with their post-punk inspired sound with The Back Room in 2005, led by Tom Smith’s distinctive vocals.

Editors made waves in the indie scene with tracks such as Munich, Blood and Smokers Outside Hospital Doors. They have continued to build on the early success, with each of their albums breaking into the UK Top 10 in the official album chart.

More recently, the band have unveiled singles Magazine and Hallelujah (So Low).
