Franz Ferdinand : Fresh Strawberries

Scottish native band Franz Ferdinand's first single, "Take Me Out" hit the charts back in 2004 placing them in the ears of  indie-rock lovers from the UK to the US. But what true music hunters really knew was, yes, the single was a hit but Franz Ferdinand's  entire 2004 self-titled album, "boldly bangs on the door to stardom" as Brent DiCrescenzo of pitchfork.com once said.

With their new album, Rights Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action, the band has the same sound that original fans love. With the track, "Fresh Strawberries", the same building guitars and Alex Kapranos' famous voice, it's an almost comforting sound. No longer the new hipster band but for my fellow original indie-rockers, it's lovely to hear some new tracks from this band.
