Rockers Franz Ferdinand have chosen an unusual instrument for their new track Katharine Kiss Me - a human xylophone.

The Scottish band claims the use of human bones as a percussion instrument adds an 'African influence' to their forthcoming third studio album.

Guitarist Nick MCCarthy says, "My favourite part is the human bones percussion. It sounds like a dead man dancing - because it is."

BnR has obtained an exclusive picture of their buffett table, these guys are hardcore.
