Thanks for posting Bex! It was an interesting read. I had already read his tweets, as I'm sure we all had, and was sympathetic for his predicament. However, I'm disappointed to see his messages displayed in the news like this. He has a right to be angry and express it in any non-violent way that he pleases! It's a shame that non fans/friends read his messages just to get a news story out of it. I know twitter is public domain but it just seems unethical to listen in if you don't really have his best interest in mind!! Great to hear confirmation of the next album in the works though!!

Yeah, I agree. The media likes to pick up these things and it doesn't surprise me in the least that it's NME that have picked up on it. And as per usual it's all water under the commercial bridge now.

Indeed, haven't bought one since the Tonight interview etc. They've sold out with all the stupid ads and all that, though that has been part of music mags *thinks of The Face* but it was more music related ads etc. Oh I agree, it's a VERY bitchy publication

Its funny...or maybe not- but when Alex throws a "cunt" here and a "motherfucker" there the NME prick up their ears. But they can barely give his band a decent mention from one month to the next. Fickle? Absolutely. +1 you said it

Franz Ferdinand begin writing 'different' fourth album Franz Ferdinand
Alex Kapranos says he's 'trying to do things in a different way'. Franz Ferdinand have started writing new material for their fourth album, frontman Alex Kapranos has confirmed. The Scottish singer/guitarist told BBC 6music that he and guitarist Nick McCarthy had been working on new songs at McCarthy's house for the follow-up to last year's 'Tonight… Franz Ferdinand' effort.
"I've been round at Nick's and we've been writing some things, and trying to do things in a different way again," he explained. "You'll hear it before too long."
Kapranos added that he was a touch wary about revealing too much about the writing sessions this early on, however.
"Before the last record I talked far too much about it," he said, "as we had the ideas and I made a vow that I wasn't going to say anything about what we are actually doing until we've done it, and then wait about another three weeks."
Franz Ferdinand are set to tour Australia from the end of this month, followed by some South American live dates.
