Great album, yes.  "This Fire" might be my personal favorite (just the most sing-alongable).  "Michael" is dead sexy, for anyone of any gender or sexual orientation--it's just hot.

Is that a bad thing or a good thing? (Forgive me.)

On the b-side of "Michael."

I thought this (http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2004/11/1204.cfm) was very amusing (also posted on the Morrissey thread).

The follow-up to Franz Ferdinand, the band's debut, will be in stores October 4. Rather than going through the work of choosing a name for the album, they're just reusing the title of the first album, which we suppose was really more of a non-title. And if that's not enough for you already, the second album will bear the same cover art as its predecessor, only with different colors.

Wow, they really are gimmicky. My friends would tell me they just make 80's music for nostalgia and gimmick but I wouldn't listen to them, then this. My friends are right, franz ferdinand sucks.

Franz Ferdinand renames 'Better' new album

NEW YORK (Billboard) - After initially opting to self-title its second album, Scottish rock band Franz Ferdinand has now opted to call the set "You Could Have It So Much Better ... With Franz Ferdinand."

The album will still be released as planned Oct. 3 internationally and the next day in North America via Domino/Epic. First single "Do You Want To?" will precede the album on Sept. 19.

The original plan was to have only the band's name printed on the new album cover, and to distinguish it from its similarly self-titled predecessor with a different color scheme.

Franz Ferdinand is gearing up for a handful of U.K. festival dates later this month, beginning Aug. 20-21 at the V Festival. A North American tour will begin Sept. 20 in Chicago.

Franz Ferdinand will issue a five-track "single" for "The Fallen" on March 27 in the U.K. — meaning staunch Franz fans in the U.S. will need to look for a copy in the imports section of their neighborhood record store. The single will feature the new tracks "Lauren Wells," "Brown Onions," "Jeremy Fraser" and the "Ruined by Justice" remix of "The Fallen."
