It was around five years ago that Franz Ferdinand exploded onto the scene with their awesome self-titled debut album, and then had a terrific follow-up album in late 2005, You Could Have It So Much Better.  (And I like listening to them while playing Snood; go figure.)   FF is the one of the few rock bands that have come out in the 2000s that I dig.

Now, after a 3+ year absence, the band is back with a new album, Tonight: Franz Ferdinand, which debuts January 26, 2009.  And they're premiering their new video, Ulysses, online at Spinner.com.  The song and video are a bit of a departure for FF, and it's a bit darker.
