Franz Ferdinand

They've been playing this catchy number on WOXY for a couple of weeks now.
 
 Given the preponderance of UK music fans on this board, I'm wondering if anyone has heard the full album from this Scottish band.  Good?  Bad?  Indifferent?

Hello, a rare daytime appearance from the lesser spotted Markie.......
 
 I have an EP of theirs. I think its pretty good, but I can't remember much more about it. So does that mean the album is out now? If so I guess I will be buying it.

A rare appearance of any sort from me...KEXP has been playing the song for a bit too.  It looks like their full length is to be released Feb. 9th.  I don't know if that's just a UK release, though.  I hope they don't pull a Coral and end up not releasing anything here for another 6 months.

Their self-titled album is coming out on Domino Records. I have the EP also and like it. Fun dance-y tunes. And I am looking forward to seeing them live sometime. They have an interesting  history. You can find their official site  here .

All of my British friends (the ones over there) love some of their recorded works but say they absolutely suck live.    :roll:  In most cases, they saw them live 1st and then were very surprised by liking the recordings.
