About Klaxons

The London-based Klaxons include Jamie Reynolds, James Righton and Simon Taylor as their members. Despite being a rock band at the core, they're heavily influenced by dance music -- especially the late-'80s/early-'90s U.K. rave movement. Reynolds has even dubbed his band "nu-rave" to further emphasize the inspiration. By the time band released their second low-key single, they had nonetheless become a favorite of the NME and wound up signing with Polydor. As the group worked on its first album, the Modular label issued the brief singles compilation Xan Valleys (in late 2006). Myths of the Near Future, the full-length debut, was released in early 2007 in the U.K. and the U.S. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide

Tilly And The Wall
"O",The third offering from Omaha's indie darlings, left a bitter taste in our mouths while passing completely unnoticed thanks to a lacklustre collection of rather dull tunes. Luckily for the tap-dancing five-piece, they kept an ace up their sleeves and it's about to become an unexpected hit as the Radio 1 has playlisted it. "Beat Control" was originally released as a very limited edition 7" single, in between albums, and it was not meant to be included in "O". Hailed as a shift towards dance-pop, with some discreet electronic touches, it showed a welcomed new direction for the band, away from their habitual folky-pop. Many would have preferred them following that path. Better late than never, if this track confirms its potential it could become the cornestone of Tilly & The wall's future.
