By this time, Franz Ferdinand will have been sooooo 2004 while the music media will have passed on the mantle of band du jour to the next worthy one (time's a-tickin', Killers). For their debut, they wowed the critics with their brand of garage pop that's catchy and cool, and netted them a few awards. Expressive guitar work and shifty melodies (you hear the influences: Gang of Four, Joy Division, etc) hold your interest until the needle hits the end. Now let's see if they make it past a second album.

Franz Ferdinand rocks, but they dont have that something... That something that marks them for greatness. That sound that makes them unique. Theyll have to grow up like Green Day did if they want to survive.
They can be great by starting to behave like asshole rockstars and be in the tabloids every 2 weeks. Great publicity nyhahahaha!
Or they could date Pamela Anderson. That wont assure them of fame, but theyll have fun.
