Beschrijving van Wiki (te lui om te vertalen):
Klaxons are a band from London in England. They have a large underground following. They were formerly called 'Klaxons (Not Centaurs)'. Their debut single, Gravity's Rainbow was released in April 2005 on Angular Records. Only 500 copies were released on 7" vinyl decorated by the band themselves. The band's second single, 'Atlantis To Interzone' was the first release for new label Merok and led to further coverage in the NME and even had BBC Radio 1 daytime play from Jo Whiley - who unfortunately repeatedly called the song 'Atlantis To Interscope'.

Klaxons recently played at the Reading and Leeds festivals, playing in Carling tents on each festival site. The Carling tent, at both festivals, is the smallest stage and as a result large numbers of people were forced to watch from outside the tent. Fans sounded klaxons and cheered loudly between songs, brandishing glo-sticks, seemingly giving credit to the NME "new rave" bandwagon label.
