Editors made "An End Has a Start" the title track of their second album and put it out as its second single on September 3, 2007, on CD, maxi-CD and 7" vinyl through Kitchenware, with "Open Up" on the flip. The writing credit is shared by Tom Smith, Chris Urbanowicz, Russell Leetch and Ed Lay. Jacknife Lee produced it and Cenzo Townshend mixed.
It's a rush of a song, all urgency and gloom-rock momentum, and it reached 27 on the UK singles chart that month. It got a second life in America, too, when AMC used it to score a montage commercial, which put it in front of plenty of people who would never have found it otherwise.
