Since starting off on Glasgow's underground scene organising parties in abandoned buildings, Franz Ferdinand have made a name for themselves with their transgressive spirit and boundless energy. With an innovative approach to blending art and music, the Scottish band strikes a balance between great songs, memorable riffs and bold ideas that get listeners thinking as well as dancing.

On their sixth studio album, The Human Fear, they explore unease as a driver of our shared experience. The adrenaline of the unknown, vulnerability in human connections and dizzying changes are themes that run throughout this record on which the band stays true to their identity while opening up to new horizons. Recorded with the characteristic immediacy and freshness of their sound, this album captures the essence of a band in constant evolution. Alive, awake and more authentic than ever, Franz Ferdinand invites us to tap into the vibrant heartbeat of The Human Fear.
