Klaxons picked up this year's Mercury Music Prize. Being a big fan, I'm over the moon that they've won. One of my interviews with the band is here, and you can read my album review here:NME Editor Conor McNicholas said: "One of the things Klaxons have tried to do is produce something that feels like it came from the future. It's an album that could only ever have been made in Britain, could only ever have been made at this moment in time and it's a multi-layered album."
Keyboardist James Righton added: "It was quite a shame that every question we got asked today was about whether Amy Winehouse was going to win the award. It took the focus away from the fact that the Mercury Music Prize is about music."

I'm glad. Them or Jamie T wouldve done. Hurrah!
Who is the douche on their left?
He's the drummer. The glue that holds them all together! I reckon he'll be made a full-time member soon.
