My thoughts on the new Franz Ferdinand album: it begins powerfully with the great Ulysses. It continues with Turn It On, No You Girls, and Send Him Away, which in my humble opinion should not be in an album we waited almost 3 years for, and it gets loose there. Things improve wonderfully with Twilight Omens, and after it come 5 songs {Bite Hard, What She Came For, Live Alone, Can't Stop Feeling...

And so it came and went. The Mogiversary. Three years. Where once I would mark them off month by month, this one faded into obscurity. Nothing worth noting, nothing to say. I guess the spark has gone. That's not to say I didn't try. Those late nights, the days I'd check in on you everyday, every hour, just to see how things were going, those times I couldn't tear myself away. But that was a lon...

Knowing how certain MOGgers (who shall go unnamed here) love Scotland's most swaggering contemporary rock band Franz Ferdinand, I thought it imperative to provide the site with a couple of videos from a recent episode of "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson."I'm fond of the new FF album Tonight: Franz Ferdinand - which I've already touted elsewhere as a hybrid of dark cabaret music and glam-...

I've been browsing through my previous posts & I realized that I might come off bitter, romance wise. I mean, I've burried x-boyfriends 6 feet under in more than one posts, I've asked you to share lyrics that put love in the doghouse, I've demostrated a tendency to post lyrics concerning strictly sex & I've claimed total identification to a song titled "Why Do You Love Me".I feel like sheding s...

One of my favorite songs on the new and third from Franz Ferdinand, Tonight, finally got a brand new music video. "No Your Girls" reminds me a little of the Franz I fell in love with in '04 when "Take Me Out" became the 21st century's new power pop anthem. The video? A little strange in the mod meets swinging London/Austin Powers choreography aspect. I think I actually hate it. Love the song, h...

Apparently, Franz Ferdinand are working towards a new direction with their upcoming album. The band recently played a low-key show in their native Glasgow showcasing new material with a keyboard-led motif, according to NME.Speaking about the new songs, guitarist Paul Thomson said it was "synth-led, we've gone crazy buying old synths... We played Nashville recently and all the synths short circu...
