MP3: Franke - Skinnad
Aside from being twice as long as it should be, "Skinnad" is proof positive that Franke's return comes with a bang, not a whimper. The swagger and the attitude are of primary importance and thank goodness those qualities have been retained. And there's far less self-conscious brooding. Instead, we get sunglasses and leather jackets. But what I love most has to be the trashy cymbal abuse and the gratuitous reverb. If you're gonna go for that, go whole-hog and oh, they do. But five full minutes? Please. Thankfully none of the other songs on the album make the same mistake.
