Klaxons go 'prog doom' for album number two

please don't infect any other once reputable genres with your underdeveloped one hook pieces of meh, and the attention of the nme. k thanx bye.

In other news, Pope still Catholic.

musically, but aesthetically they're a big bunch of twaddle.

but i bet you an nme new rave tour ticket their next album is the dogs

apart from the one thats like wolverine, he is an ok dj. I'll let him live.

Have anyone of you seen them live? They are fucking appalling, really appalling.

Even Enter Shikari are better than these bunch of talenless wankers live.

theyve got another guitarist and turned the bassist's amp up a bit.

awesome live. Nice chaps.

they are ruddy superb live...

1) This was already reported here months ago.

2) They will sound exactly like they usually do. But better produced.

it will sound like Anathema

LOL

Another band reassuring us that their second album will be different.

Like we're believing this.

They're trying to be interesting. They're trying to be different. And yet they're still trying to rock. I heart Klaxons.

Yes, NME have gone mental over them but let's face it, if they do that enough they're bound to hit paydirt occasionally. And the rest of the time, they'll want you to believe that The Enemy have come to save us, but I digress.

this album's gonna be whack.

and everything

reputable?
hmmm.

Still good.

How can you compare a band like Klaxons to the 'typical nme crap'?

I miss the good old days where, whenever I had a go at Oasis, The_Glory merely posted by way of response "You like Muse".

what is wrong with your ears?
the guitars sound shit, the singing sounds shit, out of key, the little dude on keyboards can't play and sing at the same time, he has enough trouble doing one or the other. the only thing that is ok about them live is the session drummer they hire, he's pretty good.

do you not have ears? shit

someone better not say they are the best live band around now or i wil get on my bike and peddle till i get to you and stab you in the ear, yes thats right in the fucking ear

I try to like them but they are DIRE live.

are you fucking deaf? cunt

but the awful singing, the terrible guitars, the shite synths, the fact they cannot play or sing live to save their dying mothers and the fact no one else seems to see it shocks me.

THEY CAN'T SING FOR FUCKS SAKE

WAKE UP

they're pretty easy to like...

Have a crisp.

ear stabbing

you probably like answering questions with questions.

Klaxons are fucking dire talentless arsewipes

Klaxons are ok. Not the best.

You just don't seem to really mention music you like...

perfect jamie and everyone else. klaxons is the perfect example of how the radio is infected with just about 100% true statement of SHIT. dont these bands realise they are causing their inevitable doom for themselves? They will not get past 1 album, 2 if they are extremely lucky, then they will get dropped from their labels, have to work in morrissons, whilst their dreams are smashed with debts to pay. Stop for your own sakes as well as ours and for once, please just for fucking once, allow decent music to be aired, promoted and educated to what is now a generation of listeners with such low standards of what a good song is. and the nme, my god the fucking nme, you should be ashamed of yourselves, all you writers who write not articles but instead fuck around with peoples (the band's) lives you write about - making them think they are the next big thing and then blank and slate them until they split up. You bunch of undignified, cheap people

but i agree with keifallen.

There were disco acts in the 70's that did it WAAAAY better.

not to mention the fact that they cant sing and that the falsetto on record is distincly modified from the live version.

is this an entire thread full of insults? what is the point?

that over half the "klaxons are horrible shite" comments on this thread are coming from you.
what, did they sleep with your mum or something?

mmm prog doom exist already. its called kayo dot!!!

mmmmmmm

I am genuinely curious as to whether Klaxons are good live or not. I have heard very mixed reviews. I've never seen them live in person, only on TV where they've sounded quite bad. The singing was poor and the levels not mixed right. In interviews they insist that they used to be shit but have now improved, but I haven't seen any evidence of this.

The first album is ok. The first time I heard Golden Skans I thought it was Hard-Fi, but it grew on me. Gravity's Rainbow is a good tune.
