Franz Ferdinand lead singer Alex Kapranos has revealed that the group's third studio album has been delayed.
Kapranos admitted that their untitled LP, a follow-up to 2005's You Could Have It So Much Better, has been pushed back to early next year.
He told BBC 6 Music: "We've still got quite a bit of mixing to do but because we don't really know how long it's going to take, we're going to put the release date back a bit.
"I can't see it coming out this year. I think it's more likely to come out in January or something like that."
The singer also confessed that the bandconsidered calling the album Bite Hard, but were forced to drop the name due to potential misinterpretation in the US.
"[Bite Hard is] quite suggestive but apparently in the States if you say something 'bites' it means it sucks, so if something bites hard, it sucks really badly. So we thought, 'No we'll choose another title,'" he explained.
