Franz Ferdinand
Franz Ferdinand are set to release their first feature-length DVD next week, through Domino Records. The 2-disc set not only includes live performances from around the globe but also a myriad of very special bonus features.

The first disc includes a selection of live tracks from last year including fantastic performances at Brixton Academy, T In The Park and a homecoming at Barrowlands. Disc One also includes footage from the band fifth ever gig at Glasgow School of Art, as well as specially-produced karaoke films for 'Matinée' and 'Take Me Out'. Disc Two comes packed with two full concerts from London and San Francisco with extra bonus live tracks including the previously unreleased 'Can't Stop Feeling'.

The double DVD is available to pre-order now for release on November 28th through the official webshop.
