Franz Ferdinand are set to release their second album of 2009. The Scottish rock outfit has recorded a dub version of their previously released album.
'Tonight: Franz Ferdinand', the group's previous album, already had the right ingredients for the album to be dubbed. Producer, Dan Carey, has worked with dub artists such as Lee "Scratch" Perry and Mad Professor in the past.
Speaking to Billboard in November 2008, lead singer Alex Kapranos described Carey as having "a different dynamic than other producers." "I think with anything, it has to be a collaboration and we find ourselves bouncing off one another rather well," Kapranos said of the group's work with Carey. "He's coming from that Jamaican perspective -- there's much more space; the bass guitar leads a lot more on this record than anything else."
Titled "Blood," the album will be released June 1 through Domino.
