It's with a heavy heart and idle dancing feet that I must announce that the next release from Glasgow's finest, Franz Ferdinand, has been delayed until 2009. The follow-up to You Could Have It So Much Better is taking longer than expected due to a complicated mixing process. Why rush perfection? Being the selfish FF fan that I am, my reasoning is because we have waited so very long for the new album and frankly I'm getting tired holding on for it, and I'm bored with my iPod playlists...and I've forgotten what Alex Kapranos looks like! To their credit, the band is putting the date back into next year instead of the previously set 2008, and have turned a deaf ear to all the whining by fans...like me. In the meantime, the band has been performing smallish gigs around the UK. Catch 'em if you can, and be privy to many of their new tunes before everyone else. Lucky ducks! Me envious, much??
