The Story Behind: Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand, Ep 206

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Franz Ferdinand formed in Glasgow with the express purpose of making music that would make women want to dance. And - they did. The boys discuss the full backstory of the band and in the process touch on stacked guitar-monies, sing-talking, and the art rock-modded disco beats of the early 2000s.
