WIN! Klaxons vinyl! Plus! News! About! A! Cancelled! Tour! Yeah? Yeah!
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver October 18th, 2006

Klaxons, right: I couldn't care much for 'em. What I hear is just another Test Icicles kinda band, who were okay but, like, were just ripping off The Blood Brothers, yeah? This one time, right, I was DJing and some kid asks me, "Is this Test Icicles?" I was only playing The Blood Brothers! What a shit.

But heck, a freebie is a freebie, and this is a freebie. Geddit? A freebie. We've two copies of Klaxons' new single, 'Magick' to give away. Well, four copies, really: winners will receive both the seven-inch and the rather neat (and also etched) twelve-inch. MAGICK! Shame the idiots couldn't spell the word properly.

To win: answer this question...

If I was in Klaxons, right, what would I do with myself come the end of each sweaty, stinky, dirty gig?
A) Have a wank?
B) Have a sandwich?
C) Have a shower?

Send your answer to mike DOT diver AT drownedinsound DOT com just as quickly as you bloody well can. The competition closes when I've had enough of your silly e-mails, which will have 'Klaxons are my favourite band of the last five minutes' written in the subject line or they will be IGNORED. Ha! Yes. Ignored.

In other Klaxons news, the three-piece's November US tour has been shelved to allow them to focus on recording their album. I bet it'll be awesome, so America: thanks. The tour will be rescheduled for some time in 2007. That's NEXT year. Mental.

'Magick' is out on October 30, through Polydor.
