Franz Ferdinand present the new album 'Always Ascending'. Nothing short of a rebirth, the album's 10 songs are a triumphant recasting of the group, bursting with fresh ideas and vigorous sonic experimentation. 'Always Ascending' was recorded at RAK Studios, London and Motorbass in Paris, with the help of French producer extraordinaire Philippe Zdar (Cassius, Phoenix, The Beastie Boys), the mutual affection between band and producer seeping into every dazzling groove. 'Always Ascending' shows Franz Ferdinand broadening their palate, as exuberant as it is euphoric, creating a sound that singer, Alex Kapranos, refers to as "simultaneously futuristic and naturalistic."

Franz-tastic 10/10
They sound totally revitalised and I've not been able to move onto another album since this came out! I love every single track and it's their strongest album since their debut. 'Always Ascending' is their best lead track in many years, but it has to be 'Huck and Jim' that's the strongest and most relevant. Not one duff track here - and at 39 minutes it seems like thy've not allowed for any fat. Seems like that collaboration with Sparks paid off - maybe Collaborations 'Do' Work? :-)

Some great tunes but not their best album for me.
Some great tunes but not their best album for me - it doesn’t hit the heights of the first two, but they are still a top band.
