Isolee twists up Franz Ferdinand's "Outsiders" into a tripped out dub disco lick!

You realize that this is essentially the Eurotrash remix...this is what they would play at shitty bars in France full of French guido-equivalents. "Tripped out"? Je crois pas. Franz Ferdinand sucks in general...I should have known the remix was going to be this weak. Thanks forindulging me though D.

good to see you know the difference between eurotrash hits and isolee. damn, you're informed. it's people such as yourself that make me realise how much some people don't know about music.

and no, FF OWNS you.

i mean sure, you can say that i don't know anything about music if it makes you feel better about listening to what is essentially eurotrash disco garbage. no, i don't know Isolee is, but frankly, after listening to that, I'm not eveninterested enough toallmusic.com them.

FF is such pretentious bullshit. "Let's make all of our albums self-titled anddifferentiate them only by the colour scheme!" The only song oftheirs Iconsider worthwhile is"Tell Her Tonight" and that's because it's ontheFIFA2005 soundtrack.

I like this, but then I like FF, so why wouldn't I? Maybe Radiohead should have Daft Punk produce their next album and leave that Nigel guy by the curb with the extra copies of Hail to the Thief. They need to stop being so serious!

You're kidding, of course? Please tell me that you, with your Jim Jones-esque fervor for Radiohead, are not calling Franz Ferdinand pretentious? I like both bands, but give me a break here. There's one pretentious band here and it's not named after an archduke.

The second album wasn't self-titled. Might have been the original intent, but they changed their minds. I'm sorry you didn't pick up on that simply because the title wasn't written was on the cover.

Talk about bullshit...

I guess I don't see anything particularly showy about calling your band 'Franz Ferdinand'. It's the name of a 20th century historical figure. It's fairly innocuous and the music isn't overly dramatic either. As a band name, Radiohead isn't that ostentatious either, but then you put on the music.

I hope you don't expect to win anybody over to your side after blatently admitting ignorance of the subject matter.

You are allowed to dislike Franz Ferninand.
You are not allowed to justify your dislike with blatent falsehoods (at least while I'm around).
Just sayin'.

Mmm, just to piss dalen off, this does sound like a shitty eurotrash song. I like Isolee though, is it possible they just had an off day?

Have you ever heard Alex Kapranos do an interview? He does come of as a pretentious twat. Although i do not think the music is pretentious at all.

Glad to see that the wanker emoticon was used again. May i have another one.
