Klaxons Cancel Summer Appearances To Record New Album

London-based indie rockers Klaxons have scrapped their planned Summer live commitments to start recording their third studio album. Klaxons were due to perform at this Summer's Bilbao BBK Live festival in Spain, alongside acts such as The Kooks, Glasvegas and Warpaint.
Klaxons' new album will be the follow-up to their 2010 ‘Surfing the Void’. The band informed fans that they were ready to start penning new material through a post on their Twitter and Facebook last month: “7 days and counting until we commence recording record 3 #trilogy.” A release date for the new album has not yet been set.
Klaxons made their debut in 2007 with 'Myths of the Near Future' but it was their second album which catapulted them into more mainstream success, with their single 'Echoes' being one of their more popular hits.
The band last year cancelled a tour in North America, citing ‘unforeseen circumstances’ as the cause. It’s unknown whether they’ll be rescheduling the tour but Stereoboard will be the first to let you know if they do.
