It was founded in 1982 by Keith Armstrong, Paul Ludford and Phil Mitchell, and was originally part of The Soul Kitchen, an artist collective and nightclub.[1] Of this current roster of artists, Editors are currently the most successful, having gained platinum status with their album The Back Room, which also reached number two on the UK Albums Chart.
