YO: Hadouken!

These grime-y Brits bang the drum with some hard, fast, and loud creations of the electronic kind, killing it through stacked speakers in clubs and through cell phones in the back of London buses at 2 am.  Hadouken!, like the origin of its name, prefers to be played in an intense situation, and when done, will blast away all opponents.  Get smashed and f**k shit up.

Sounds kinda like: the Prodigy, the Chemical Brothers.  Pretty much like giving your favorite group of hip British street hooligans some drums, synths, and mics to get dumb with.

New Track, Same Dog: Klaxons

British new ravers Klaxons are close to finishing their new record, their sophomore follow up to their explosive debut Myths of the New Future.  They've posted a track called "Flashover", and it's the usual brilliant noise you can expect from these lads, but you can hear a bit of label influence because of the defined poppy undertones.  Universal had wanted them to have a more accessible sound, which their initial recordings of the second record weren't so much, so they tinkered quite a bit according to NME.

Check it out, and tell us what you think.
