Editors album is bassically the first draft recordings by Blanck Mass, which led to the album Violence (Mar. 2018). The band had wanted a stronger electronic / industrial take on their music and invited Blanck Mass (aka Benjamin John Power) to add something to their new recordings. The result is heard here, but to the band, they were slightly rearranged with less electronic and industrial dominance, and those recordings were released as Violence. However, the initial recordings had their very own strengths, so one year following the actual album release the initial sessions by Blanck Mass were released. And frankly, they are just better and more originally sounding.
