Oh my god ahahahaha
Being telepathic with Alex Kapranos was not what I had on my 2026 bingo card but it is probably a good thing - after all, the next World War will probably be prevented by this Franz Ferdinand
Just played his new one and, well, let’s just say I was compelled to find and quote this post.
Oh good, a whole day celebrating 1991. On a Wednesday.
