fringey top 5 reasons to hate the KLAXONS

Yeah, so we're getting in on the backlash a little bit early, but its on its way!



  • Will you just look at that picture! - Totally slappable.

  • Klaxons is a stupid name. Sounds like a childrens programme for A.D.D. toddlers.

  • They need gimmicky props like whistles and glow sticks to make themselves look big and clever and original. They are not. Ultimately this kind of tat will date them.

  • They are just tapping into twentysomethings nostalgia for the 1990's. Fringey is old enough to remember that rave KILLED good music for nearly a decade the first time round.

  • Finally, the Klaxons are this years novelty "shit genre of music accidently manages to become briefly popular again" act. See also 'The Darkness'.


(still, that 'Atlantis to Interzone' is a cracking tune. The bastards.)
