...Franz Ferdinand You Could Have It So Much Better; $13.49 These disco-loving Scottish art-school punks spend much of their second album boasting of their badness. Singer Alex Kapranos is blessed with Mick Jaggeresque persuasiveness-Evil and a Heathen and I'm Your Villain would be musts on any syllabus of "Songwriting for Cads"-but he's also growing in ways that suggest depth.

...least of its satisfactions is Wolf Creek's felling of cultural stereotypes. So when Mick Taylor begins riffing on Paul Hogan's line, "You call that a knife?" one senses Crocodile Dundee being buried forever in an unmarked grave. It's little surprise to learn that the director's next project, Rogue, is to be about a marauding crocodile in Kakadu National Park - Steve Irwin, watch your back. Already one can see Mclean setting a steely trap for unsuspecting audiences to slip into...
