Franz Ferdinand: Next Album Details

Franz Ferdinand have revealed details surrounding the release of their third album. The band, who toured recently in support of their second LP "You Could Have It So Much Better", have said that the next project will be very different to their past work, according to NME.com.

"It's not about getting to the white hot heart of pop," revealed singer Alex Kapranos, speaking to The Observer. "We just want to get to the next place after this one."

Franz Ferdinand hit the road again on October 27 at Leuven's Brabanthal, when they kick off their European tour, with support from Editors.

As previously reported, Franz Ferdinand are set to release a double disc DVD on November 14 featuring live performances and loads of extras. The DVDs will include the bands complete sets from London and San Francisco as well as snippets from their performances at last year’s T In The Park, Glasgow Barrowlands, The Avalon in Los Angeles and parts of their Australia/New Zealand tour.

The extras featured range from interviews to Karaoke films for "Matinee" and "Take Me Out" as well as a documentary entitled "Tour De Franz" about the band on tour.

Jeez, they just released their album a few weeks ago, and they're making another one?

[leaping badger]

ok that was quick, something tells me this album may take a while or be dissapointing though. You could have it so much better is amazing

[fingerpkngood]

[slash_015]

really productional. Franz Ferdinand rules. My fav song on the Album is "This Boy"

[MATTTHEMOP]

well in the 70s and 80s lots of bands released an album or even 2 per year or something.

its those sort of things that make me wonder how metallica made the black album within a year.

Wow! that makes you wonder, what makes me wonder is how I haven't seen one single three minute song done by them.

[henryt-bags]

Franz Ferdinand said they don't like waiting for the media to squeeze all the juice of their albums - they like like making music fast.

[Rockn_Clay]

BWwahhahaaha maybe because they lack this littel thing called talent.. ya thats the one.

[HeLL-SpAwN]

Franz do have talent. And Indie music is in a completely different league to metal music so lay off with the Metallica comments. Matinee is 3:49, Take Me Out is 3:13. All more than 3 minutes i believe...

Going to see Franz on 26th November in the MEN. Can't Wait. Best song on You Could Have It So Much Better With FF is "I'm Your Villain".

Peace and Love.
