I have that APB record -- what's it called, LIVE IN YOUR LIVING ROOM or
something like that?  As I recall, they were much scritchier than A Certain
Ratio, but I haven't listened to it in years.  APB remind me a lot of the
Fire Engines too.  

Franz Ferdinand also remind me a lot of early (pre-funkified) Orange Juice,
a comparison that I don't think I've seen a lot of.  

I somehow keep buying a near-complete collection of ACR records, even
though the only one of their songs I really like is "Shack Up."  Damn you
Factory Records and your fabulous graphic design!
