Franz Ferdinand have shared a new teaser on social media featuring 10 seconds of synthy music and a tantalisingly close date.
It looks like the quintet - who have a newly revamped lineup since the departure of founding guitarist Nick McCarthy - are making good on their summer word to release new music soon. The date teased is just a couple of days away.
