Franz Ferdinand - Always Ascending

Franz Ferdinand's third studio album, Always Ascending, showcases the Scottish indie rock pioneers at their most inventive. Released in 2018, this record strips back the band's signature angular guitars and propulsive rhythms to explore synth-driven arrangements and introspective songwriting. Standout tracks like "Always Ascending" and "Lazy Boy" demonstrate their evolution while maintaining the infectious energy that defined their earlier work. A must-have for collectors of modern alternative rock and longtime fans eager to hear the band's creative reinvention.
