NME, Uncut’s sister magazine, has launched their official radio station today (June 24).

Muse’s ‘Knights Of Cydonia’ was chosen.
The band won a fierce online poll which saw 3.5 million fans of acts like The Killers, Oasis and The Strokes competed for the honour of being the first song played on air.
“Cheers, thanks a lot to all the voters,” declared Muse’s Matt Bellamy told NME.COM on learning the news. “Nice to know that shortly after the song finished on Earth, the galloping horses and laser beams would have reached Cydonia at the speed of light. Good new station, will be listening.”
