Exclusive Franz Track Heads to U.S. on Foe Soundtrack

Exclusive Franz Track Heads to U.S. on <i>Foe</i> Soundtrack

Way the hell back in November 2006, you may recall us running an item about Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand laying an exclusive song called "Hallam Foe Dandelion Blow" on the soundtrack to David Mackenzie's film Hallam Foe.

Well hey, that jam and the soundtrack it's featured on-- which also includes tunes from a ton of Franz's fellow Domino artists-- will finally be released via Domino in the States on September 9. Woo!

However, something to note: in every other country in the world, the film is called Hallam Foe, seeing as it's based on Peter Jinks' novel of the same title, and Hallam is the main character's first name. In the U.S., however, where the film will be released September 5? They're calling it Mister Foe. Makes you proud, don't it?
