Franz Ferdinand share "Lazy Boy," the latest track to be taken from Always Ascending, their forthcoming album out February 9th on Domino. Hypnotically laconic, the track is available via DSPs now and follows the recent launch of the Diane Martel-directed video for "Feel The Love Go" (watchHERE). Franz Ferdinand were in America last week for an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Watch their adrenaline shot of a performance of "Always Ascending" HERE.  Always Ascending is the band's fifth album and was recorded at RAK Studios, London and Motorbass in Paris, with the help of French producer extraordinaire Philippe Zdar (Cassius, Phoenix, The Beastie Boys). Nothing short of a rebirth, the album's 10 songs are a triumphant recasting of the group, bursting with fresh ideas and vigorous sonic experimentation. Always Ascending is available to pre-order via iTunes and all DSPs now and will be available on CD, vinyl and ltd edition cassette via DomMart, with a special DomMart edition, featuring marbled blue and white vinyl, with a signed print and tote bag.  North & South American Tour Dates  April 8 - Toronto, ON - Rebel April 10 - Boston, MA - House of Blues April 11 - Washington, DC - 9:30 Club April 13 - Philadelphia, PA - The Fillmore April 15 - Brooklyn, NY - Brooklyn Steel April 16 - Brooklyn, NY -  Brooklyn Steel (SOLD OUT) April 20 - Guadalajara, Mexico - Roxy FEstival April 24 - Mexico City, Mexico - Pepsi City April 27 - Minneapolis, MN - First Avenue April 28 - Kansas City, MO - The Truman April 30 - Milwaukee, WI - The Rave May 2 - St. Louis, MO - The Pageant May 7 - Dallas, TX -  House of Blues May 8 - Houston, TX - White Oak Music Hall May 11 - Phoenix, AZ - The Van Buren May 13 - San Diego, CA - North Park @ The Observatory May 15 - Los Angeles, CA - The Wiltern May 17 - Oakland, CA - The Fox Theatr Tickets for all shows are available to purchase now.
