Franz Ferdinand
The band Franz Ferdinand is still around. They bill themselves as the “most evil band in Scotland” but it’s not that edgy. They have the existentialist twist that you’ve come to expect from this group, but we haven’t been able to find much evil in it. Unless you find themes of romantic boredom and existentialism to be particularly evil, that is. But otherwise there’s nothing much exciting going on there. A lot of people really like the music and the style, and it does have some fun attached to it. It’s not a bad band or anything. Just they need to work a little harder at getting themselves better billing or edgier songs, depending on what it is they’re trying to accomplish.
