Franz Ferdinand have finally announced a new album: Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action. That’s the album art above. It will come out via Domino on August 27.
It’s mind boggling to think that this is their first album since 2009’s Tonight. They spent the last year recording the album in frontman Alex Kapranos’ Scottish Studio, and Nick McCarthy’s Sausage Studios in London. Kapranos gave us this when asked for a quote:
The Intellect Vs The Soul, played out by some dumb band.
Awesome.
