F·F·S is the one and only album by FFS, the Scottish-American supergroup made of Franz Ferdinand and Sparks, released through Domino on 8 June 2015 in the UK and a day later in the US. The two bands had first crossed paths back in the mid-2000s, but the record itself went down in a 15-day blitz at RAK Studios in London late in 2014, with Grammy winner John Congleton producing, and nobody announced the partnership until that March.
It sounds like exactly what it is: Franz Ferdinand's wiry indie-rock strut colliding head-on with Sparks' arch, theatrical art rock, new wave angles everywhere. The sense of humor is right there in the titles of its five singles, "Piss Off", "Johnny Delusional", "Collaborations Don't Work", "Call Girl" and "Police Encounters", and the critics liked what they heard.
