Klaxons plan sci-fi charity donation

Nu-rave rockers Klaxons are planning to donate their Mercury Music Prize winnings to a sci-fi organisation, say reports.

The group, who won the award for their 2006 album Myths Of The Near Future, have apparently stuck their winner's cheque up on the wall and are waiting for the right charity to come along.

Guitarist Simon Taylor told The Sun: "I have stuck the cheque on my wall with Blu-Tack.

"We want to give the money to charity, but something that interests us where they struggle to get donations. Our album is devilled in sci-fi so we want something more abstract -like advances in telepathy or a new age science."
