Just found out Lisa Kekaula also sings on the first track on the Basement Jaxx album Kish Kash -- I didn't really she had so many irons in the fire!

Well, I take it back. I've listened to the Franz Ferdinand album and it's good. Put it this way, they're obviously massive britpop fans and bits of it were such signature Blur moves it made me laugh. That'll turn some people off. But personally I like a bit of Blur and their last album didn't do it for me, but this does (so far). It's art-school and maybe a bit too studenty lyrically, but there are nice tunes on it that are a lot better than some of the rubbish the NME plugs. Basically Britpop mark II. Definitely not a life-changing rock'n'roll experience, except for the band maybe, but any album with a track on it that turns The Human League's 'Gordon's Gin' from Travelogue into a rock tune can't be all bad.

Sorry, haven't been here for a while, but that Franz Ferdinand single is absolutely doing my head in. I think it's great, but... what on earth is the song that they've (perhaps unknowingly) ripped off?? I'm sure it doesn't just sound like something else, but actually is something else, to the extend that I thought it might be some clever post-modern pastiche when I first heard it. Some white funk/pop thing from the 80s maybe (but not any of the obvious avant funk types)????

Sounds like the Metro review nailed it, though they're not entirely evil. Anybody remember a band called Pigeonhed - kind of similar, but clearly not camp enough to succeed...

Does the job for me.
Whether I can still listen to it in six months remains to be seen
