More awards, and Klaxons will now represent the UK in the New Sounds Of Europe Award at this year's MTV Europe Music Awards.
The New Sounds Award is a new bit of the EMAs designed to celebrate new musical talent across the continent, with each country in Europe putting forward a semi-finalist. James Morrison was set to represent the UK, but then we, as a nation, realized he was a bit rubbish, so we decided to put the Mercury Award winning Klaxons up instead. No, not really - alas semi-finalists need to attend the EMA to compete, and Morrison can't make it, but the Klaxon boys are well up for it, and they came second in the original vote to pick a UK entrant, so all's well that ends well.
Formally bowing out, Morrison told reporters: "It's a real shame that I won't be able to take part in this new award at the Europe Music Awards this year. However recording commitments mean I won't be able to be in Munich. I wish Klaxons the very best of luck and want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who voted for me".
Formally, erm, bowing in, a spokesman for Klaxons said this: "We're excited to be the UK entrant for the NSOE award and at the prospect of performing at the EMAs in Munich to cap what has been a fantastic year for us so far."
