(Alright, here we go with riff one)

Did you ever get the feeling
That there's something come undone
An unreeling in the seaming, the stitching gone
So you rip a little harder 'til that rip becomes a run
Feel the fabric of existence – come unspun
Hey there we don't care, could be standing way out where
You're naked and freezing 'til you run
Freeze or run

But don't stop feeling audacious
There's no one to save us
So just carry on
And don't go blaming the neighbours
You know they're the same as us
We should just get on
Get on

With a plastic carrier bag in each hand
The rain fell low so you were standing
Under the holly tree with exasperated feelings and
Hey ho you don't know
Is it a joke? No, I said no!
I'm serious, more serious than I've ever been
I've ever been

So don't stop feeling audacious
There's no one to save us
So just carry on
And don't go blaming the neighbours
You know they're the same as us
We should just get on
Get on

Did you ever get the feeling
That your world has come undone
No revealing of a reason to carry on
When hey there... it's there
Waiting just in there
Ready any time to come along
Along

So don't stop feeling audacious
The unknown and the famous
They say just carry on
And no there's just us to save us
Forget any favours
We should just get on
Get on with it

I say, that's rather brazen of them 
A song from the future that sounds like it came from the 80s. 
Future Song...! 
Kewel...!

Will gladly fight for your right to disagree with me but what bands boil your p155?


One thing that boils my piss is not using the actual word for piss.
On the substance of your comment, I can't parse "unauthentic [sic] art school pretentions".  Are their pretentions inauthentic because they went to art school?  If so, I think you might be in for a bit of a shock when you realise just how many musicians honed their craft at art school (disclaimer - I didn't go to art school, but I'm in a band with two architects and a printmaker who did).

HaHa - it's got a 10th Jan 2025 release date... The site shows ISO format dates; YYYY-MM-DD

Dates done proper 
All the young dudes ...
Fresh Franz! In fact, it's so fresh that it's from the future… “Released 2025-01-01.” Where did you get your time machine, William?
All right! Audacious new stuff from Franz! They really have an unmistakable sound... Earnest, teasing vocals, rhythms that charge ahead recklessly or hang back waiting for that impeccably timed punch that they have such a knack for... Their lyrics are always a kick, too! It's been a while... I'm excited to hear more from them!

Fun and intriguing cover art! And the music is great, as always 
Something of the Beatles/Tears for Fears in there. 

Not sure about it tbh - go for a 7 until I hear it again a time or 2 more - suspect I might be pushing it down to a 6

Liking what I hear on this my 1st listen.
I thought this voice sounded familiar! Had to get up from my work to see who it was, and I was right. Cool tune.
