Hmm. Tough call. The Mouse have a rather angular pop sense. In fact, I'm still amazed they've become as popular as they have. They've been around for years. My inclination is that you wouldn't care for them, based on your relative indifference to (the raging brilliance, brilliance!) of Franz Ferdinand (as they have vague similarities in their fondness for odd arrangements). If it didn't take me so damn long to upload, I'd post a few tracks for you -- but you can get "Float On" as a freebie here. As far as last album singles go, I prefer "The Ocean Breathes Salty." You can listen to clips on the Good News For People Who Love Bad News Amazon page, though. ("Bukowski" is my hands down favorite.) Take a gander at their past albums, too.
