The likely first single off of their new album due in April in the UK with an unknown date here in the States.

I think the first U.S. single is going to be something else. UK bands always do that! (*looks at Bloc Party and Muse*)

Just as I figured. I didn't like any of their "catchy" ones but I'm lovin' this supposedly "non-catchy" one. Reminds me of The Strokes.

It's Muse raping Klaxons.
AHHH LOVE IT. There's an mp3 if you don't have it in their music news thead.

Never bought into the hype when they first hit and imo, on first listen this sounds as though they're going backwards. Doesn't have the the cheekiness of half the songs on the first album. It'll still be huge though!

this song rocks!!! I downloaded the mp3 off the torrent sites. you can never be sure sometimes with those sites but if it is indeed the right song, it rocks. it's heavier than their last album. especially the beginning. I think they used a drum machine but correct me if I'm wrong. anyways very catchy once again.

This could (potentially) be big here. Now that Muse has caught on for real (becoming a format mainstay), a song that resembles them might also be viable to the format. Let's hope.
I'm wondering when Klaxons goes for adds.

How odd... I thought they'd release their new album in the summer. This song is great though: just as well as their other tracks on the debut!

This is good, hope it -- or whatever the U.S. single ends up being -- does well here.

It's nice to have an MP3 without someone saying ouch at the end, but all that extra stereo makes it sound kind of "busy" IMO.

This is very retro-futurist, Klaxons style. And the The Trip era dancers are a perfect 60's touch!
I love it. I'm really pumped (lol) for this new album. They are moving into dangerous territory now & it's terribly exciting.

Probably will go to #1 in the UK It's a huge hit; if the US doesn't pick up on it, that's our problem.

such a great album. I hope Teddy Picker is a single. that's by far my favourite song on the album. I was surprised at how good this was.

i listen new album sometimes...more various but i think a bit less incisive and with less killer tracks...good anyway
the central part is the weakest imho.

Good! Thanks for clarifying. It will probably at least do Top 30 when it does go up for adds.
