"I'm a LADY, too!": Franz Ferdinand as the ugly sisters?
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver October 14th, 2004
Cor, first the God of Fuck himself dresses up in a frock for some film or other, and now those Scottish indie types Franz Ferdinand are at it. Maybe.

Y'see, the band have been invited to contribute some music to the next Harry Potter film (um, and the Bus Ride to School, or something), but word is that they might also make a cameo appearance.

Alex Kapranos told music channel VH1: "There's a section where there's a band of ugly sisters playing and I think, well... some members of Franz Ferdinand may be the ugly sisters in the band. There's an excitement and innocence about those films. I like how there's good and evil, and that's a clarity which is quite refreshing."

I find R Whites to be more refreshing, mind.
