Reasons why the new Franz Ferdinand album is ace:

1.) One of the songs is called "Jacqueline"

2) One of the songs mentions Terry Wogan, presenter of the eurovision song contest

3.) It's better than "Room on Fire"

4.) It's got some nice arsing-around type pictures on the inside sleeve AND in the bit underneath where the CD goes.

5.) It's got "Darts of Pleasure" AND "Take me out" on it.

6.) All the songs are about 3 and a half minutes long but they feel about twice that length.

7.) Alex has the snarliest, sexiest, most British voice since Jarvis Cocker.

8.) It's just fucking ace.
