Franz Ferdinand – Tonight, Franz Ferdinand

Franz Ferdinand do appear to have misplaced the zeitgeist that they held so firmly, only letting go long enough to pick up an award or two in their first cosmic year at the head of an irresistble post punk revival.

It would appear however that we did resist.

There is nothing within as struttingly brilliant as Take me out or conversely as annoying as Do you want to? It’s neither indie enough to be indie or straight out pop enough to be pop (they were rumoured to have approached Girls aloud musical svengali’s xemonmania in the gestation period for this record).You will find plenty of synths and some crunching base lines, Turn it on especially.Dance music then?

Dance music, in Mojo! Hang on!

That’s a 6/10 from me

Had a listen? What did you think?
