Didn't find a topic 'bout them, so made one. Let's talk about Franz Ferdinand!

[petit_charat]

Franz Ferdinand are splendid. i dunno why we didn't mention them in the Indie Topic..
hmm..
anyways, i LOVED their debut album. couldn't stop listening to ti for a while. although their second album has more songs, the first album is just...awsome. lyrically AND musically.
you could literally dance to every one of those songs. and 'Jaqueline' has the BEST guitar hook since ever. that song is just love, seriously.

I haven't had the great chance to see them live, although they do look like heaps of fun live. their DVD is pretty stunning, with lots of live footage. anyone seen them live? feedback? are they really THAT awesome?

i'm hoping for a new album out this year (?) ... i dunno, just speculating, but it would be great if they did release one.

[missdevotional]

Oooh Franz Ferdinand, I haven't listened to them in a while.
I quite like them, I remember when they first came out. Everyone loved them ^_______^

They're releasing a new album (autumn)!
And I read there would be a single out for summer.

[petit_charat]

YAY. yes i read something on the NME website about them previewing a new single.. it should sound super.

missdevotional: i think you may be talking about Kaiser Chief's 'ruby' song.. =]

Franz Ferdinand were pretty huge when they first started. 'take me out' was a good first single.
not saying they're not huge now, but i think they over-hyped 'take me out' too much and played it farr too much on radio that people got sick of it.
its so disappointing when stuff like that happens, because you know the band has soo much potential.

[mizer_unmei]

Yay Franz Ferdinand! <3
One of the best bands to come out recently. Hurray for the revival of the new wave sound. I just re-listened to their first album. "Come on Home" is a PERFECT song. Ahh, so good.

And I heard that thye got Girls Aloud to do backing vocals on a song. Which is awesome, because I've just discovered the awesomeness of Girls Aloud too.

They totally need a new album out. The summer can't come soon enough!

[EMPIRE]

Lupp them. their debut album, amazing. second is great too. Franz Ferdinand, just cool and fun to dance to.

[justiiine]

oooooh! i LOVE franz ferdinand! XDDDD

OH how embarrassing. LOL.
I'm so stupid
Thank you
I get them mixed up sometimes all the time

Which is stupid of me, because Franz Ferdinand are so much better

[TunaTin]

Aaah Franz Ferdinand!
I like them Especially Michael, Take me Out (who doesn't like that song XD), and Darts of Pleasure.
I heard the frontman's bi?
Haven't heard from them for a while now though, what they been up to?
xx

[petit_charat]

the frontman is going out with the girl from Fiery Furnaces (i think that's the band)...
although i haven't heard of him being bi.
he has impeccable fashion sense though.
apparently noel fielding punched alex kapranos' girlfriend in the face... i heard it on Never Mind The Buzzcocks..

[chocopocky]

AHHHH! I LOVE YOU FOR MAKING THIS TOPIC! <33

Franz Ferdinand is tha shizz. *kisses cd*

I love their style.

[eleventwenty4]

I love them!

I went to their concert and they were stellar. Awesome live!

[orangeSHR00M]

ive only heard take me out like...a year ago out but i still remember this song because of how the guitar about a minute in changes...
its really catchy. xD;

[litoxshortaii]

take me out was my first exposure to franz ferdinand and now i am in love with all their songs

[babiesburn]

Ohh, I love the Franz! They were such a new sound to me when my virgin ears heard their first album. I really love their approach to music.

From 'Franz Ferdinand,' try: "This Fire," "The Dark of the Matinee," and "Come On Home."
From 'You Could Have It So Much Better,' try: "Outsiders," "You Could Have It So Much Better," "This Boy," "I'm Your Villain," and "The Fallen."

Alex is such a good-looking man, as my icon confirms.
