They Have Arrived! How Do Klaxons Know The Hype Is Real? Oasis’ Noel Gallagher Publicly Bashed Them















Klaxons' debut album is called, "Myths of the Near Future," but these English dance rockers are the real deal right now.

The young London-based trio's first release entered the U.K. charts at number two in early February--"Myths" hit U.S. stores in late March--and compelled Rolling Stone magazine to call the group "leaders of a new rock revolution." Their concerts also compel fans in Europe to leap onstage amid a wild, dance-party atmosphere enlivened by glowsticks, whistles and other '80s-throwback paraphernalia.

What's been your most surreal moment so far?

We just felt like we had this arriving moment when [Noel Gallagher of Oasis] started talking about us. We felt like there was actually something going on.

What did he say?

He said that watching one of our gigs is like being tortured.

How do you feel about that?

I [think] that if you get the establishment even giving a second to think about you, no matter what they say, then there's definitely something going on. I didn't have a reaction. I just was like, "Wow, the establishment dislikes us, and that must mean that we're doing something right."

And the Gallaghers don't like anybody anyway.

Yeah, but he sort of went out there, wanker-like, to say that we were awful. I thought it was great.

With all the hype, are there any misconceptions about the band?

Yeah, that we're a nu-rave band.

Well, we know who's responsible for that.
