Franz Ferdinand share 'Hooked', the third track from upcoming album 'The Human Fear'
Frontman Alex Kapranos describes the nighttime-inspired track as the band prepares for a UK and European tour beginning this month.
Franz Ferdinand have released their new single 'Hooked', the third track to be shared from their upcoming sixth album 'The Human Fear'.
The new track follows previous singles 'Audacious' and 'Night Or Day', featuring the band's characteristic post-punk sound with prominent synth elements. The song includes the pre-chorus "I thought I knew what love was/But then I met you" before moving into a chorus of repeated "You got me hooked" over synthesizers.

"Sliding into midnight, it's a nighttime prowl of a song. If we all have the human fear, then that's alright when you're hooked," says frontman Alex Kapranos.
The band first performed 'Hooked' live during a show at Strathpeffer Spa Pavilion in September, while another new track, 'Bar Lonely', recently received its television debut on CBS Saturday Sessions.
