by Eli Sokeland It’s been a little while since Franz Ferdinand has released an album. Their last release as a band was the studio album Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action in 2013. In the meantime, they released FFS in 2015, a collaboration with the band Sparks. Since their previous album, the band has changed its lineup. While Nick McCarthy, a founder of the band, did leave, the band gained a music producer and two new full-time members for this album. With their most recent disk, called Always Ascending, there are obvious differences from Franz Ferdinand's most popular hits.
New songs, new band
Franz Ferdinand keeps the beat pumping
The track never picks up the pace much and the lyrics are dull and unoriginal. This might be due to the fact that it feels incredibly mellow. However, the song still very misplaced and irritating within the album.Always Ascending is different, and that’s ok
Always Ascending Top tracks: Recommend if you like:Genius
