Klaxons — Gravity’s Rainbow / Golden Skans

Posted by Tracy Sigler, September 17, 2007 11:05 pm - Permalink   

New music to start the new week… Is this music “psychedelic”? I suppose. Either way I like it because it sounds fresh, and maybe a little like Kaiser Chiefs. I recently read something that described their music as “dance rock.” Maybe that’s accurate too. I also read they had trouble getting visas to tour in the US thanks to our ridiculous immigration rules, but it appears that has been straightened out. They are coming to the 9:30 Club in DC. Mary just reminded me we don’t live there any more. But if you do I recommend checking them out. They are supposed to be great live. I love both of these songs. The first video is for “Gravity’s Rainbow” (they have two different vids for this song), the second is for “Golden Skans.” You might like the latter more if you don’t watch the video, just listen, or at least watch it with a sense of humor. See the Klaxons site for more.

  4. [...] I mentioned Klaxons a good while back. And it’s taken me a good while to get into Myths of the Near Future, but now that I’m tuned in and turned on, I’m digging it, man. Just kidding! It’s great! [...]
