Divorce at High Noon

The early music career of Franz Ferdinand singer Alex Kapranos is set to be revealed with the re-release of The Karelia's 'Divorce at High Noon'. The 1997 album will come out on through Roadrunner Records and shows Kapranos' first stab at fame before he found success with Franz. Taking their name from a Greek brand of cigarettes smoked by drummer Tassos Bombos, The Karelia enlisted The Monochrome Set's Bid to produce the album. At the time, Kapranos was going by the name Alex Huntley and was joined by Bombos, bassist Glen Thomson and Allan Wylie on trumpet. The new version of 'Divorce At High Noon' will also feature two bonus tracks 'Divorce At High Noon' (French Version) & 'Love's A Cliche' (single version) plus the video for 'Love's A Cliche'. 2005.
