Tonight: Franz Ferdinand

homerun_homer

Got my filthy mits on this tonight. It's a cool album. Anyone else got listening to it yet?

Lorr

No but I want it.............

The Hustler

First listen I thought it wasn't the best, but a DEFINITE grower.

7/10

Lorr

Had a few listens today and its already grown on me. Can't Stop Feeling and Twilight Omens are my favourites so far. A definite improvement on YCHISMB.

Enzo Scifo

Got tickets to see them in Limerick, cant wait

homerun_homer

Yeah I'm looking forward to the Limerick gig a lot. I love the album already, it is way better than #2 as the songs are more varied. I love the dancier and groovier feel to the record. I'd say Nick McCarthy barely plays guitar on it, synths rule.

The Hustler

After weeks listening I can now confirm we've an early contender for album of the year. There are AT LEAST 6 potenetial singles/hits on it

insinkerator

I thought this wasnt out til next month, just goes to show what i know . They kinda disappeared under my radar about two years ago.

Better go get my hands on it then

cerebis

had a quick scan through some of the songs this morning...wasn't really impressed!

JaneyMc

I'm surprised this is getting such positive reviews, I've always thought anything I've heard from them to be pretty unremarkable.

eclectichoney

Ulysses and What she came for are excellent - two standouts for me thus far

Whipping Boy

Sounds catchy enough so far, will take a while to give a proper opinion though.

What's with Lucid Dreams though? I loved it when it was released last year but they've edited it and stretched it out into 8 minutes long? Bit odd!

Xavi6

Only heard that 'Ulysees' song so far. Absolute rubbish.

lordgoat

I loved the live songs i heard over the summer, not too keen on the Ulysees single.

Xav check out the rest of the album...

cherryghost

dont like Ulysees too much, but its a great album all in all. Welcome back, Franz!

Enzo Scifo

went in to get it today to be told its not out yet, I presume with all the reviews on here its available to down load?

homerun_homer

Yip, got it on download from a torrent site. Berrate me for stealing music but I will be buying the special edition box set of the album so they'll get what they are owed.

Xavi6

Gave the whole thing a few listens and it's not better than a 4 out of 10. Disappointing tbh.
