Both are enjoyable, but I've only a Strokes album... I think FF's style would suit me better, but that their songs aren't yet as good as those of the Strokes...

I like both. Went for Franz Ferdinand cause I'm kind of tired of the Strokes quite honestly.

Me too, I dig their style and attitude but their albums are getting tiring for sure. Franz is more upbeat and almost Strokes meets dance music and I like that.

Going only on the singles, I find Franz Ferdinand quite annoying... I can' really say why either. I guess I just don't like the tunes. I don't feel that way about The Strokes. In fact, I often feel the opposite about the strokes.

Do they have an album out yet or is it still just singles?

Their self titled album came out a few months back. It's great.

Although i went for the strokes, I really like Ferdinand for two reasons;

a) In a club they are more appropriate due to thier dancier beats,
b) They hail from Britain (and I feel patriotic).

But creativeness and originality, whihc are more important, are with the Strokes solidly.

my 2 pence.
