Franz Ferdinand vs. The Killers

[Elvis Presley]

FF

The Killers are a poor Strokes rip off

 

[smooshcat]

I really like both of these bands and their albums, but if I had to pick.... Franz.

 

[FullonEdge2]

Wow! It looks like they'res a bit of controversy over this one.

For now, I'm tempted to say I'm more inclined to get a FF cd because of a few of their songs that have hooked on to me, but the jury's really still out on this one.

 

[WinnieThePoo]

Well, by the looks of this thread, I think you are going to end up buying both. I like FF but Loooooove The Killers.

 

[Souly]

Franz Ferdinand.

 

[Jack In The Box]

FF

The Killers are boring

I like both bands but I prefer the Killers.

 

[Lancemc]

[Bono's shades]

Franz Ferdinand for me. I'm still listening to their album all the time, but I'm getting sick of The Killers.

 

[Yahweh]

Franz Ferdinand in my mind have more potential.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

I've only heard two songs by the Killers. I've heard the whole Franz Ferdinand CD. And I love that CD. Therefore, my vote goes to Franz Ferdinand (can I just say once again how much I love the song "The Dark Of The Matinee"? And "Take Me Out" is still a personal favorite as well).

I don't mind the Killers, though-I do like the two songs I've heard by them.

The Killers

 

[Numb1075]

I own both cds. I enjoy the Killers, but FF album is so original and is really solid throughout the CD.

Here is what the Killers sound like to me: A cross between something you would find on The Cure's "Wish" album and anything by The Flock of Seagulls.

I was suprised to notice all of the synths used on the Killers album, it has a real 80's vibe.

But Franz Ferdinand is the winner in my book.

 

[korczykp]

FF's sound bugs me...

and I just love the killers, when I heard somebody told me, I have to say I didn't care for it all that much... but I picked up the album anyway, and I fell in love with it

 

[zooperson]

Franz Ferdinand. they are way better live than the Killers are but the killers were great too. i love both bands but Franz just because they bug me less and im less ashamed of admitting that i like them.

 

[BVS]

FF are a better band, Killers have a better sound but I hate their lyrics.

 

[Cute Irish Bono]

Franz Ferinand! But I like them both but I don't love them.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

As of late, the more I hear "Mr. Brightside", the more I like it. I've managed to hear a couple of other songs of theirs-"Smile Like You Mean It" and one with the name Jenny whose title I can't recall right now...those two are okay, but I still prefer "Somebody Told Me" and "Mr. Brightside".

2 of the best bands of this year. Its a bit hard to choose between the two, Ive heard both albums and prob prefer the killers slightly - saw them live last night and they were fantastic.

But I bet if I saw FF tomorrow Id be changing my mind.

Both fantastic bands that we need right now.

 

[elevation2u]

whats next...
creed vs. barenaked ladies?

 

[anitram]

If I have to choose, I'll go with FF. More fun. Neither is the best thing since sliced (whole wheat) bread....

 

[zooperson]

whats next...
creed vs. barenaked ladies?

HMMMM... barenaked ladies. that song "one week" is pretty darn catchy.
