Get ‘Hooked’ on Franz Ferdinand’s new ’The Human Fear’ song

Franz Ferdinand has shared a new song called “Hooked,” a track off the band’s upcoming album, The Human Fear.

“Sliding into midnight, it’s a nighttime prowl of a song,” frontman Alex Kapranos says of “Hooked,” which gives The Human Fear its title in the lyrics.

“If we all have the human fear, then that’s alright when you’re hooked,” Kapranos adds. “I thought I knew what love was… but then I met you.”

You can listen to “Hooked” now via digital outlets.

The Human Fear, which also includes the lead single “Audacious,” drops on Friday. It’s the follow-up to 2018’s Always Ascending.

Franz Ferdinand will launch a U.S. tour in March.
