Franz Ferdinand é uma banda formada por quatro rapazes de Glasgow, Escócia, em 2001. Aliás, a pessoa que deu nome à banda existiu: Francisco Ferdinando foi um arquiduque austro-húngaro, cujo assassinato foi o estopim para o início da Primeira Guerra Mundial.
Robert Hardy "Bob" (baixo), Nicholas McCarthy "Nick" (guitarra), Paul Thomson (bateria) e Alex Kapranos (vocal e guitarra) lançaram um EP independente em 2002, que garantiu, no ano seguinte, a contratação pelo selo Domino.
