For every insanely hyped proposition that emerges from the streets of London, I've usually got a host of derogatory comments, sometimes even before I've heard them. It is, after all, increasingly hard not to get swept up in a sea of superlatives and wave after wave of hyperbole. This time though, it's different.
'Atlantis to Interzone' is everything great pop should be. Schizophrenic, hyperactive and consistently surprising. Hookier than a night chasing Peter Pan and replete with a chorus that can be both screamed drunkenly and sung quietly to yourself on the bus, tapping your feet like a crazed busker.
You can decry a band for being surrounded in hype (despite the fact that the band they probably never wanted it anyway), but you can never put a great song down. Like it or lump it, Klaxons are the soundtrack to every decent summer party this year. I can't wait.
I love it.
4 Horsemen's also alright, but I end up skipping it after a while.
hmmm
...half awesome. half toss. thats my feeling. phenomenally brilliant and well produced first half though, so I'll let them off being toss live last time I saw them...
they are the new
Pop Will Eat Itself.
but, in a good way.
got my vinyl. yum yum yum. the sleeve is RUBBISH, mind.
But
Why is there the hype about them bring rave back? Because they have glowsticks or something?
Because the NME said so.
FEEL THE PRAGMATICS
it's probably cos
they cover Kicks Like A Mule...
I LOVE this song
so much. Can't help but feel that this band may fade away after the hype disappears, but if they keep making great tracks like this they should be ok.
I think I've got a demo or something,
because I saw the vid a few minutes ago and its a lot less 'together'.
I prefer mine.
:(
heard this for the first time
last night.
awesome drunk-on-strongbow- dance music, but maybe not something id give repeated listens
This is a great song
by an awesome band. vry entertaining, even though they look like they came straight out of Nathan barley.
I actually really don't like this
sorry OOOOPS.
bothered
rofl?
this song is actually awesome
and the video is shit hot too.
I think they're bloody awful
No better than The Automatic if you ask me.
File under 'forgettable'
then
why can't I get it out of my head?
I can't get the Automatic
out of my head, but in a years time, you'll say "who"?
it's fantastic
whenever i hear it out i always want to dance and it's always the song i'm humming to myself on the way home.
It could get annoying after a while, but at the moment, i like it.
prime tripe!
great song
propbably the only song on the album that deserves the "nu rave" term, its the only one that seems to fit into my understanding of this new genre. also the only song the band reproduce live successfully. i must admit that i think the album is over-produced my still great to listen to
