Franz Ferdinand Releases New Song “Night Or Day”
Scottish rock band Franz Ferdinand, consisting of Alex Kapranos (lead vocals/lead guitar), Bob Hardy (bass), Julian Corrie (keyboards), Dino Bardot (rhythm guitar) and Audrey Tait (drums), released a new song “Night Or Day” on November 18, 2024.
The song is the second single off of their upcoming sixth studio album “The Human Fear”, which is set to be released on January 10, 2025.
The track was written by Alex Kapranos and produced by Mark Ralph.
The accompanying music video was directed by Rianne White.
The band lead singer Alex Kapranos said of the song in a press release, “Life may never be easy, but damn, we'll make sure we live it up night or day. Night into day. We collaborated with the hugely talented Rianne White to capture the Drama-Noir of the environment where we recorded this and the rest of the LP. She has a sensitivity and energy which exploded into that space, giving a glimpse of the world where we made the music. Storm shake the room and boom... the dark heart of Scotland beats strong. Filmed entirely on location at AYR Studios.”- Director Rianne White said of the video, “This song emulates the turbulent, transcendent immensity of feelings that live and breathe within four walls. Born with Franz Ferdinand in their Scottish studio, where they recorded this beauty, 'Night or Day' was a powerful meeting of visual and sound, all caught in the eye of 16mm black and white film. These are the storms we dance in!”
