		The four band members--Craperi, Hardy, bassist Kate "Jasper" Straight and vocalist Raj Baht--approach the music with hardcore frenzy and volume, but the music has sophistication and humor often lacking in the genre.
		Still, Craperi's rolling, rollicking rhythms are propulsive, Straight's stop-start basslines are odd and ear-grabbing, and Hardy's guitar tone provides a thick, reverb-laden, treble-kicking wash of sound.
		He never appears in public with the band (or comes to a practice if a reporter is going to be present) but co-wrote many of the songs and will be playing on the band's forthcoming demo.

	Eye - Franz Ferdinand - 02.19.04
		Yes, Franz Ferdinand belong to the grand UK tradition of art-school rock (though only bassist Robert Hardy has actually attended one), boasting a spiky, sexy mix of pop discourse and disco discord that sends Roxy Music and Pulp on an exchange-student program with Talking Heads and The Pixies.
		Still, as Hardy attests, surviving hand-to-mouth can be a real pain in the ass.
		Paul [Thomson], our drummer, had the most radical ones: he was a life model at the art school where I was studying, and would also do things for medical science.

		It was then that Kapranos got to know painter Bob Hardy.
		When Hardy was given a bass guitar in 2001, Kapranos convinced Hardy to join him in a new band, explaining to the reluctant Hardy that painting and music were both equally important methods of expression.

		So when Lenz and her husband, Charlie, moved to Dallas in 1994, she ended up at the University of North Texas and discovered she was probably the only person in Denton who didn't have a band.
		The band performed no more than five shows around Denton, and it was indeed one of those kinds of bands that happens only in Denton: Everybody sang, they played at the Karma Cafe, and the repertoire consisted of vintage 1950s and '60s tunes.
		In the end, she would go through a handful of drummers, guitarists, and bassists before settling on the lineup that would record Kim Lenz and Her Jaguars.

		I realized, eventually, that although his songs are dark and disturbing, they are also incredibly literate, beautiful and often rather witty--Thomas Hardy meets Robert Johnson, with some Jim Thompson thrown in for good measure.
		He was accompanied, at times, by violinist Warren Ellis, drummer Jim White and bassist Susan Stenger, who helped him create the strangely folksy new sound that permeates his upcoming LP, No More Shall We Part (WEA/Warner Bros.).
		Because he is revered by his fans and hardly ever shows up in this area, the Cave performance was a bit of an occasion, like the Oscars of the hipoisie.

		Hardy stayed there overnight and was transferred to a Tokyo hospital the next morning, probably because everyone knows the hospitals in Osaka suck balls.
		Well, here's the deal: NME says Hardy will be out of commission until at least December 3rd, which will have him missing shows in Detroit, Camden, and New York, so Fiery Furnaces bassist Toshi Yano will fill in for him until his expected return in Philly on December 3rd.

		However, his Life Cycle album on ECM is a solo set on which he exclusively plays cello, an instrument with which he's not normally associated...and unfortunately, though he's a bassist of the highest order, Holland is just not a first-rate cellist.
		ECM is run by a man named Manfred Eicher who is notorious for perfectionism, and there are a lot of running jokes that involve using his name as part of the label's acronym -- i.e.
		Interestingly, though, the passages that Holland plays pizzicato tend to appeal to me more; part of that is because I tend to think that's what he's best at -- after all, he makes his living playing pizzicato, for the most part -- but it's also a real relief from his comparatively strident cello tone.
