Klaxons Turn To The Chronic
Poor NME. Just months after the rag coined a new genre for their present poster boys, said band is set to switch up its game. Klaxons are looking to branch out into the sweet rhythm & blues, and so naturally they're turning to ... Snoop and Dre? Via MTV UK:
"We would very much like to make an R&B record. If we could afford it."Bassist Jamie Reynolds added "The most interesting thing for us would be to work with Dr.Dre or Snoop Dogg. We haven’t done a record deal in America but we got to a point a couple of weeks ago where we were talking about one - and I don’t know whether or not it's gonna happen.
"But if we did do that deal we would probably jeopardise our future working with Dr.Dre."
Silly Klaxons. If you wanna make R&B records, not working with Dre is a good thing! And pray tell, what in the name of ecstasy are we supposed to do with all of the Day-Glo we just bought for the North American tour?

The Klaxons sound like every other band since 2002 - good, danceable indie rock - working with Dr. Dre or anyone in hip-hop could be something interesting.
Now, do people really -believe- that "nu-rave" hype? Totally CaNdy FlIpPing to jagged indie rock sounds like the worst experience on this or ottttttthhhhher worlds. Sheep, maaan!! u aalll mindless sheepeeeerjfg

did anyone else see them when they opened up for soulwax at studio b last fall? it was the most god-awful display i've seen in ages. i actually sort of liked them until i saw them live... totally killed it for me. and from the looks of the crowd, i wasn't alone in that.

I think that the Klaxons and Dre would make a great pair. They BOTH hate melody!
Score = 0
if Dre works with the Klaxons but not The Game HEADS WILL ROLL.
and yeah, why the fuck does hip hop still hate melody so much??
