And Klaxons have revealed the details behind the cat cover art, a current trend, for their upcoming album Surfing The Void, due out August 23. “That’s actually my cat, I got him from Hackney two Christmas’ ago,” singer/bassist Jamie Reynolds told NME. “His name’s Orphee [after the 1949 French film] but I just call him Boy because I don’t want to stand out the back of my house screaming ‘Orphee!’.” [NME]
