Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand have done a great job making danceable rock music. Their 2004 debut, Franz Ferdinand was a hot album whose singles made it into many of my mix tapes that year. I also was able to see them live in one of the best venues in Chicago/ever. I literally was spit on by Alex Kapranos, that's how close I was...and it was awesome. Their follow-up album, You Could Have It So Much Better gave us the great (possibly homo-erotic?), "Do You Want To?" and "I'm Your Villain".
Do You Want To - Franz Ferdinand
Im Your Villain - Franz Ferdinand
Well, the boys are back with a new album and you can stream the entire thing on their myspace page. So far I'm liking what I'm hearing - it's a darker, sexier Franz Ferdinand with a hint of disco. Don't judge me for my love of the disco - it still fluffs my Fritos.
