Franz Ferdinand [wiki] v2.0? That's what it seems when you listen this track for the first time! So, to get a conclusion, let's take a closer look (using Wikipedia info):

	Franz Ferdinand	The Rakes
Formed on:	2000	2001
Origin:	Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom	London, England
Genre:	Indie rock, Post-punk revival, Art rock	Indie rock, Art rock, Post-punk revival

Too close, isn't it? But if we say that TR were the support-band for FF during winter 05... the solution to the question is clear.

P.S.: I love the amateur/home made style used on the video.
