Take me out.
I am in utter adoration of these
boys.
Billed as "the most hyped band to come out of Glasgow," Franz Ferdinand takes tempo changes to a whole new level. They wanted to make music that would turn on blokes and babes alike, and by golly, they've done it. I love the straight-out blistering rock guitar, happy doses of funk, the occasional (and by now standard) nod to mechanical 80s beats, and of course, their lead singer has the classic Brit indie nasal whine down.
"Michael" will probably gather hordes of male gay fans: "You're so sexy...Come and dance with me Michael." And "The Dark of the Matinee" will, I'm certain, trigger many happy memories of Greenbelt theater groping.
