Sound the alarm! Having stirred up quite the new rave ruckus in their native UK, band-of-the- moment Klaxons have announced their U.S. invasion objectives-- and first up is the release of their debut LP, Myths of the Near Future.

Out today in the UK via Rinse/Polydor, Myths won't cross the ocean until late April (provided it doesn't run into any visa troubles). DGC, which fostered some bands that got pretty popular (Nirvana, Sonic Youth), has taken the young trio under its wing in the big scary United States (in conjunction with Rinse).

Myths' U.S. release will likely coincide with a Klaxons Stateside tour. Thus far, the lads have Coachella on April 29 and quite the cavalcade of UK and European engagements lined up in the, er, near future. Don't miss CSS opening up that UK/Ireland stretch.

Myths of the Near Future:
