Franz Ferdinand is preparing to release their fourth studio album ‘Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action’ on 26th August by Domino.

The upcoming album is considered to be a rediscovering of the imagination, vitality and fun. This exuberant and unencumbered record is the first from the Glasgow band since 2009's album ‘Tonight’ and was recorded at Kapranos's Scottish studio, McCarthy's Sausage Studios in London, Club Ralph and a couple of trips to Stockholm and Oslo.

"It's probably the most optimistic record we've made," said Alex Kapranos about the album.
