Klaxons new album art is a LOLcat
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater June 16th, 2010

Yesterday we told you a few more details about the upcoming Klaxons album including the album name and tracklisting. The artwork, however, was not revealed. And I think we can now understand just why. Because it looks like this:

From http://cdn.pitchfork.com/media/klaxons452.jpg

That is up there with some of the finest album covers of all time. It's not so much that it's a cat-o-naut but more the look on the feline's face. Totally concentrated and dedicated to the job. Yes siree. Surfing The Void is released on August 23 and is preced by a single, 'Echoes', released a week earlier.

Here are some tour dates:

15/6 - Paris, Nouveau Casino
13/7 - Glasgow, King Tut's Wah Wah Hut
14/7 - Manchester, The Ruby Lounge
27/7 - London, Village Underground

In other musical cat-related news, Devo gave some cats an exclusive listen to their new record. Here are the results.
