Franz Ferdinand


It would almost be rude not to mention this track.

I love Franz Ferdinand. Love the Franz. I sometimes forget the sheer reiablity that their debut album brought to my life. You need some awesome, kick-arse indie? Not mediocre, sub-standard Radio 1 indie? Oh well, you must try a bit of Franz Ferdinand. You like that? Well see them live. Honestly, I cannot impress upon you how momumental Franz Ferdinand are as a live act.

But who could have predicted the tenth track on their latest album, Lucid Dreams? I like to think I'm a bit of a musical lothario. Yet there was just not a hint upon the horizon of this.

Do not allow even one miniscule lapse of concentration as you may suddenly think your existence has suddenly shifted into an alternate universe.

My well-used phrase 'break-down', doesn't come close...
