Always Ascending

Franz Ferdinand have released a new single and announced a new album.

The album has the same name as the presentation song "Always Ascending".

This is the first album of the band after they teamed up with Sparks to form FFS.

Also, it's the first album without Nick McCarthy, the musician left the band last year. To replace him, FF hired a new guitarist Dino Bardot and a keyboardist Julian Corrie.

The new single is a lot more electronic and dreamy than the previous works. I really like it.

Actually the band is always getting a step further in electronic music. They started with a indie/rock guitar oriented sound and through every album they get a little bit more danceable and electronic (Tonight was their climax for me).

So, let's wait to see, but there's a great new indie electronic song around!

The new album is coming on the 9th of February. It's a long wait but we're always ascending.

 

Spent The Day In Bed

Morrissey's new single already has an official video!
The video for Spent The Day In Bed is a full song film (not like the lyric-films from World Peace Is None Of Your Business) and features a very familiar face if you are a football fan: the problematic English player Joey Barton, which retired not long ago. Barton is a well-know Smiths fan.
The video also features, Morrissey, his band and David Hoyle. It was directed by Sophie Muller.
