Franz Ferdinand – Always Ascending

With Always Ascending, Franz Ferdinand reinvent themselves without losing their essence.

Released in 2018, the album leans into a more electronic and refined sound, blending dancefloor grooves with atmospheric touches and sleek production. It’s a transitional record — reflecting not only a shift in lineup but a desire to evolve creatively. Still danceable, still sharp-witted, but now with a futuristic polish. Franz Ferdinand looking forward, always ascending.
