Album notes
Franz Ferdinand: Nicholas McCarthy (vocals, guitar, keyboard); Alexander Kapranos (vocals, guitar); Robert Hardy (bass guitar); Paul Thomson (drums).
Often referred to as Scotland's Interpol, Franz Ferdinand made the scene with a sound that, like its NYC contemporary, owed a huge debt to 1980s post-punk and new wave. That fact, along with the members' snappy outfits and art-school sensibilities, allowed the group to easily slide into a fan-space somewhere between The Strokes and The Rapture. While the Wire influence is still in full effect on the Glasgow quartet's second full-length album, YOU COULD HAVE IT SO MUCH BETTER, there are also big dollops of Beatles, from the throbbing McCartney-esque bass on "The Fallen" to the "Julia"-style vocals on the acoustic ballad "Fade Together." With its clever lyrics and jaunty feel, "Eleanor Put Your Boots On" mines mid-period Kinks territory, while "Walk Away" recalls the clever wordplay and loopy melodies of XTC. Elsewhere, the group refines its melding of frenetic Duran Duran-approved dance rhythms and Duane Eddy-by-way-of-Adam Ant twang guitar, delivering a bracing and high-energy platter of stylish and danceable rock.

Editorial reviews
Kapronos' voice is a marvelous wide-eyed sneer....[The album] sounds exactly like what you'd expect, with pumping disco beats and lookin'-sharp guitars on track after propulsive track. - Grade: B+
Spin  

3.5 out of 5 stars - ...YOU COULD HAVE IT SO MUCH BETTER shows deeper roots in the first wave of white electric dance music: specifically the crunchy-guitar R&B and arch-garage songwriting of 1965-67 Kinks....
Rolling Stone  

4 stars out of 5 - Musically, the palette has grown without getting out of hand. Lead guitarist Nick McCarthy appears to have an inexhaustible well of singable guitar riffs: pungent, perfunctory, and hardly ever pretty...
Mojo  

...[S]hows Franz Ferdinand working harder and sounding bigger, befitting their stature as rock's saviors of the moment.... - Grade B+
Entertainment Weekly  

Ranked #11 in Mojo's The 50 Best Albums Of 2005 - An imperious state-of-the-nation address delivered with ease.
Mojo  

Ranked #3 in Spin's 40 Best Albums Of 2005 - Their second disc builds on the kraut-disco of their debut, but frontman Alex Kapranos' dubious sensitivity makes YOU COULD HAVE IT so much better than its predecessor.
Spin  

[It] overflows with danceable beats and catchy hooks.
