Customer Reviews

first review?!

this came out nearly 7 years ago, and i have the first review? wow

Best band ever

I love this band! Take me out is my favorite song!

Fabulous!

Alright, let's break it down.

1. Take Me Out 10/10
The song that truly put Franz Ferdinand on the world charts. It starts out very smoothly with some great vocals backed up by some upbeat guitars. 55 seconds into the song it completely changes, turning into a pleasantly repetitive chant, backed by a fabulous guitar riff. I really can't explain how fabulous this song is.

2. All For You, Sophia 7/10
A rocky bouncy beat starts up the song leading to some nice vocals. It eventually leads to a brooding chorus. The lyrics are based on the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the man that the band is named after. Overall it's a bit too high pitched.

3. Words So Leisured 8/10
A pleasant acoustic remake of their previous EP's Darts of Pleasure, with altered lyrics it sounds quite nice, but I miss the German at the end.

Overall it makes a nice clean EP backed by the classic Take Me Out, and as usual fabulous album cover.
