My new favorite artist: Florence + the Machine. I’m not actually sure if it’s a band or just a singer, but I do know that I love the album and style.
The first time I heard Florence + the Machine was from the Eclipse soundtrack. She has a song called “Heavy In Your Arms” that was featured in that movie. It’s pretty awesome–very emotional, powerful, and raw (plus great singing and pretty unique). So I figured I’d try out the album Lungs, aptly named because the lead singer Florence Welch has a nice pair that’s very apparent in her singing. As singing goes, she is amazing.
My favorite songs on the album are: #4 Howl; #2 Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up); and #7 Drumming Song. Below are links to the videos for #2 and #7. Also, if you get a chance, listen to #4 Howl in your car with the music blasting, windows rolled down, while driving really fast. It’s a great feeling
