Always Ascending
- Shrink-wrapped
A triumphant recasting, Franz Ferdinandâ€™s Always Ascending is as exuberant as it is euphoric, bursting with fresh ideas born of what Alex Kapranos calls â€œaggressive sonic experimentation.â€ With the help of producer Philippe Zdar (Cassius, Phoenix, Beastie Boys), Kapranos and co. took a knife to their old canvas, producing an album that is so foreign in its familiarity it could only be current. A sound the singer refers to as â€œsimultaneously futuristic and naturalistic.â€ These are the louche tales of the Parisian night, the exhilaration of an Italian car racing down the autobahn; a feeling of euphoria so pure it could only exist on a knifeâ€™s edge. As such, best to press play expecting nothing more than a good time. â€œI hope that when you listen to it you feel exhilarated,â€ Kapranos says, â€œUntil you fully absorb the lyrics.â€
