This is the 3rd album by the Scot-popsters named for the ill-fated Archduke of Austria. This one’s been panned by critics a bit but mostly because of the high expectations their first two raised. This, to me, sounds like Franz Ferdinand (without a giant hit within) - Sort of New Wave-ish, British-accented, power pop. On the ‘YCE Rock scale, I’d give it a 7.4 - Gladden
