Klaxons are a British indie rock band, based in London. Following the release of numerous 7-inch singles on different independent record labels, as well as the success of previous singles 'Magick' and 'Golden Skans', the band released their debut album, Myths of the Near Future on 29 January 2007. Klaxons – Myths Of The Near Future. Amid last year’s clamour to scramble aboard the “nu-rave” bandwagon, one crucial fact was wilfully overlooked: that the garish scene’s instigators, Klaxons, are more EMF than Altern-8.

Culminating in their appearance at the Splendour In The Grass festival in Byron Bay, the Australian tour will also take in dates in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. Klaxons have spent the last 18 months on the kind of trip that plenty dream about but only the chosen ones experience.
From playing cramped South London house parties and dreaming of Atlantis to debuting at #2 in the UK album chart with the release of their cosmically epic Myths Of The Near Future, collaborating with The Chemical Brothers, an NME Best New Band award and over 120,000 myspace friends, Klaxons have well and truly climbed the mountain of the magnificent and are now firmly set on conquering the known universe. The Klaxons live experience is a beautifully grand suite of masterful pop, scabbily charming post punk and unabashed singalong magic that will sweep the nation, with supports to be announced.
