FUTURE LOVE, MAGICK AND BEAMS OF LIGHT in the USA
KLAXONS ANNOUNCE NEW US TOUR DATES & PITCHFORK FEST 2007


Klaxons
After a tremendously successful second round of tour dates in the USA, kicking off on the East Coast where Klaxons experienced a more than welcoming reception from the new world that is, America. They then went out with a big bang amongst the swaying palm trees and the sweaty masses in the desert at Coachella Festival 2007. What a performance and what a band.

“Coachella ’07 was the place to hear amazing new bands I never heard of (The Feeling), bands I always kinda liked but not enough to bother seeing live (Arcade Fire), bands I previously wrote off but was totally wrong about (Klaxons).” -Rob Sheffield / Rolling Stone.

“There are always a few tent bands who steal some of the talk from outdoor stages (Bloc Party two years ago, Gnarls Barkley last year) and this year both of those came on Sunday, with the Teddybears and the Klaxons, another dance-friendly band but with a British punk twist. Get both those records now and brag later.” -MTV

“BAND MOST POISED TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD: Klaxons, hands down. Every few years, if you’re lucky, you witness a set from a band on the brink of hugeness. And you can just feel it in the air; it’s indescribable, really (which doesn’t bode well for this entry). The only other time I’ve felt it was during the Libertines’ set at Coachella a few years back. You just knew it was special.” –San Jose Mercury News
