The headline "FFS - Piss Off' is almost too good to be true on April Fools Day, but here you have it: Franz Ferdinand and Sparks have banded together to form FFS, and are celebrating the news of their debut album by streaming "Piss Off."
The final track from the band's self-titled debut, "Piss Off" is a jolly romp through the angst-driven desire to be left damn well alone. Ensemble chorus vocals give the track a bizzare stage musical-esque vibe, but before it can fall into a self-parody the track drifts into a delicate breakdown complete with piano and crooning lyrics.
FFS' self-titled album is set for release via Domino on 8th June.
Stream "Piss Off" below.
