They're a better version of The Strokes.

Franz Ferdinand (http://www.franzferdinand.co.uk) released their new single "Dark Of The Matinee" in the UK today. It's available as a DVD, CD, or 7". There are a whole bunch of extra features, so you might want to pick that up if you're abroad.

I love this band.

[venus/bacchus]

[Thomas Sway]

It's actually a band, not one guy. He's on Domino Records, and the full length is out in America, I got the Domino version from Best Buy...and I think Sony's gonna start releasing it.

I was just wondering if this EP is going to be released in America
