What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Phil feeling happy.

OK so the Franz Ferdinand have a new album out. They already feel like the old boys of a scene which is about to fall really hard on it's edgey, spiky art rock arse. Mind you they've kind of left that art rock behind and replaced it with pure pop. This is pretty commercial folks..... though I suppose they always had that about them. So it's another album of Franz songs which are more poppy and less strong than the debut. I reckon it's alright though and there's a handful of decent tracks on it. And as long as you skip 'Do You Want To' I think you'll probably enjoy it if you're a fan already. I can't see 'em winning any new fans with this though. Clint says it reminds him of the final Adam & The Ants album which I bet you weren't expecting.....(it does indeed sound a bit like it but there's no Franz rap unfortunately -Clint)

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.
