Franz Ferdinand sophomore LP gets title.. sort of

Reported by yewknee

Remember the debut release from Franz Ferdinand was just a self-titled release? Rumor is that the second release will also be entitled Franz Ferdinand and every album there after will also be entitled Franz Ferdinand. Turns out the band will just change the color scheme on their debut's artwork and go from there. Read what Alex Kapranos had to say about the whole concept....

"The whole point is that the album doesn't have a title. We decided quite a while ago that we didn't want to give any of the albums titles, they were just going to be called Franz Ferdinand. The albums are going to be identified by their colour schemes rather than a title. The contrast of different colours creates a different mood. We experimented with different combinations of colours and this one stuck. At one level they looked good together, and they capture the mood of this record quite well." - Alex Kapranos
