"The Weight of Your Love" is the fourth studio album by the British band Editors, released on June 28, 2013, under PIAS Recordings. It marked a significant transition for the band as their first album recorded after the departure of lead guitarist Chris Urbanowicz in April 2012. The departure was described by the band as a decision based on future musical direction and was characterized as amicable.
The album introduced new members Justin Lockey and Elliott Williams to the band lineup. "The Weight of Your Love" showcases a shift in Editors' sound, blending their trademark post-punk influences with a more expansive and melodic approach.
The lead single from the album, "A Ton of Love," debuted on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show in May 2013, accompanied by a music video release on the same day. This album marked a new chapter for Editors, demonstrating their ability to evolve while maintaining their core identity.
