According to singer Alex Kapranos, the new album from Scottish alt-rock jewel Franz Ferdinand is a collection of musings on the exhilaration that comes from being scared. While it’s difficult to detect this theme, listeners will immediately spot a surplus of delectable beats and lyrics worthy of the mightiest amphitheaters.
Simply press play on the fuzzriffic “Hooked” or Eastern-influenced “Black Eyelashes,” and you’ll be sold. Ditch the pseudo-intellectual pomp and just enjoy.
