Editors will probably never shake the scorn of those who think the band is merely rehashing influences such as Joy Division and Echo &amp; the Bunnymen, but this time it doesn\u2019t seem to care. In This Light and On This Evening is confident, wit\th a sweeping grandiosity. Lyrical themes include questioning the existence of God on \u201cPapillon\u201d and likening British legislators to ravening carnivores on \u201cEat Red Meat = Blood Drool.\u201d Ringing guitars are swapped for layers of synthesizers that soar on \u201cBricks and Mortar\u201d and buzz distantly on \u201cWalk the Fleet Road.\u201d It\u2019s all evidence of a step forward by a band that\u2019s still deciding where it wants to go. \u2013Eric R.
