Franz Ferdinand is a band formed in Glasgow in 2002. The name of the band was originally inspired by a racehorse called Archduke Ferdinand. After seeing the horse win the Northumberland Plate in 2001, the band began to discuss Archduke Franz Ferdinand and thought it would be a good band name because of the alliteration of the name and the implications of *his assassination* (which was a significant factor in the lead up to World War I).

With their unique blend of indie rock and post-punk revival, Franz Ferdinand has become one of the most influential bands of their generation. Their catchy hooks, energetic performances, and clever lyrics have garnered them a dedicated fan base worldwide.

Influenced by artists such as *Kaiser Chiefs*, *The Last Shadow Puppets*, and *Dirty Pretty Things*, Franz Ferdinand's music combines infectious melodies with thought-provoking themes. They have released several critically acclaimed albums including "Franz Ferdinand" (2004), "You Could Have It So Much Better" (2005), and "Tonight: Franz Ferdinand" (2009).

'tonight : franz ferdinand' is the brand new album from franz ferdinand recorded between glasgow and london by dan carey. explosive and infectious, and undeniably franz ferdinand, but a bigger, brighter beast. 'tonight : franz ferdinand' is music of the night: to fling yourself around your room to as you psyche yourself for a night of hedonism, for the dance-floor, flirtation, for your desolate heart-stop, for losing it and loving losing it, for the chemical surge in your bloodstream. it's for that lonely hour gently rocking yourself waiting for dawn and it all to be even again.
