Today, Glasgow’s Franz Ferdinand returns to the rock mainstage with their 4th album Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action. We happen to have a grab bag of Franz Ferdinand swag including a pink tote, an AUTOGRAPHED copy of the new record, and a surprise limited 7″.
This album picks up after 2009’s Tonight: Franz Ferdinand, a success after receiving critical and commercial acclaim with 2004’s Franz Ferdinand and 2005’s You Could Have it So Much Better. The quartet have amassed a fanbase all around the world with minimalistic math rock that was forged with referential pop chord movements.
The album leads with the single “Right Action,” a bouncy and optimistic riff-driven track that throws back to jangly guitars, a snappy chorus, and a big synthy theme. “Right Action” was followed by the release of dance-rock track “Love Illumination.”
For a shot at winning the prize pack, in the comments below tell us your favorite Scottish band besides Franz Ferdinand. I’ve been on a big Mogwai kick lately, so I’ll answer with that.
One winner with a North American mailing address will be chosen a week from today on Tuesday, September 3.
