I've just been listening to The Editors at Cherry Blossom---nice, but haven't we heard this somewhere before? Seriously, why does EVERYone have to sound so much the same? I realize musical styles rise and fall like the tide (am I mixing my metaphors?) but I feel people should just play what the feel. Maybe all these people are developing genres in the collective unconscious or something, however that may or may not operate, but I just don't find myself convinced that's whats happening in music.
Anyway, The Editors are fine. I don't mean to pick on them---sorry, guys. Did I mention you're cute in a mournful British way?
