Somebody Give Franz Ferdinand a Hand!


I just checked out the new FF album. As was the case with their first album, these guys only know how to rock. It's like they're a car that only goes fast, or a baseball player who can only hit home runs. Just like the Archduke himself, these guys sound like they are about to ignite something huge-a revolution in rock 'n roll! (Ok, maybe not, but I had to get an Archduke Franz Ferdinand reference in here somewhere).
Too many standout tracks to mention them all, but "The Fallen" is my current favourite. "Eleanor Put Your Boots On" and a couple other songs suggest that they have been listening to the Beatles lately. It seems like the Franz Ferdinand 'sound' is still a work in progress, but count me in for the ride.

What's going on with the new FF single, "Do You Wanna"?

First, Usher had a song by that name. Usher.

Second, it sounds like a fake, a parody of a FF song. It's like a Will Farrell, SNL cover of a FF song.

Points taken.

I believe the official title of the song is 'Do you want to'.

It's not my favourite track, but I must say it does grow on you a bit after a few listens.
