    Wilderness: beautiful alarms
    Faint: Agenda Suicide
    Manu Chao: Bongo Bong
    The Casual Dots: ESP for now
    Menomena: Evil Bee
    Animal Collective: We Tigers
    Sloan: HFXNSHC
    Parts & Labor: Fractured Skies (All I want to do is work and be creative when I listen to these guys)

  • Charles B. replied May 16th
    I think they are quite good, saw them live and they were a lot better than I remembered the CD being.
  • Zach O. replied May 16th
    The album's kind of hit or miss, so I bought singles through iTunes. Very cool band with a very unique sound.
  • Mark K. replied May 16th
    They're pretty good but I liked Beirut more. Gotta say I'm lovin your music recommendations keep 'em up.

    I just created a pretty eclectic mix of music on my muxtape. Check it out at http://krynsky.muxtape...
  • Henk M. replied May 16th
    Be careful not to overplay the album. It happens really easily.
  • Sean M. replied May 16th

    @ James Bayliss
    Snow patrol SUCK.

    Klaxons rock though, a less known band that are DEFINITELY worth a look though are Metronomy. Best tracks are probably:
    - You could easily have me
    - Radio Ladio
    - Heartbreaker

    @Kevinn
    What's your favourite Klaxon's track? Mine is Gravitys Rainbow

    Klaxons is good stuff, Kevin!
    Check out Fujiya & Miyagi, who are also from the UK. I would also agree with Lee and listen to some Arctic Monkeys.
    I'm sure you would also like our own VHS or Beta and Moving Units.
  • walcy c. replied May 16th
    Unique sounding group, not main-stream sounding, having just enough edge, but not tooo in you face I guess. I give them right now a 7 out of 10 score. I will have to find more of their music, and depending on that, my rating of them may go up. All in all not Bad..

    This is the sort of obvious, catchy Brit Pop that I hate to love; it always gets me dancing with a wee dash of self-loathing. Thanks for sharing!
  • Dennis D. replied May 16th
    My thoughts are shut up, come to Ontario, it's a long weekend, I'm saturating myself in beer and so should you. Dude come on, truth, cynicism, nature, fire, beer, bacon!!!!....Come to Canada NOW and I'll get you smashed and we can rock out and uh...I dunno light shit on fire. That's what I think.
  • Dominic D. replied May 16th
    i like these guys a lot. this song is one of my favorites by them.

    i met them at a live show and they asked to take my picture for some fan photo thing they were doing.

    your taste in music makes me happy.

    Love the Klaxons Kevin. It's definitely a mix between good old UK brit pop into a bit of UK dance music... hence the strong attitude's of everyone! :) also loving The Wombats and Pigeon Detectives (from Leeds my home town). Check them out.

    I'll earn some disdain with this comment but it is great for a film or tv score but for me, can't imagine listening to it at home, in my car or on my iPod.
