So there's this band, the Klaxons, and apparantely a nobody ain't somebody til he has heard or gotten down to a Klaxons jam. Have I listened to them? No, but I know of them, and this is only because I have friends in the know when it comes to dance tunes/indie rock/mp3 blogs that trumpet good shit you should be listening to.
Word on the street [a.k.a Pitchfork lane] is that we lads in the U.S. of A. will be able to get our hands on a full length Klaxons disc sometime in April, giving those in the know when it comes to the Klaxons enough time to embrace the album a little more before it hits the masses. Until then said fans [and hopefully new peeps who actively listen to music without prejudice] should give this Klaxons cover of J.Timb's My Love a spin.
By now it should be no surprise that artists are covering/remixing the singles off of Futuresex/Lovesounds. For a while doing so was the new black. [Or the new "covering Crazy"]With their cover the Klaxons keep J.Timb's vocal inflections in tact, tic for tic, note for note, surrounding it in a wall of sound so thick you'd expect to hear Thom Yorke in the background at some point shouting "THIS.IS.THE.REMIX."
