iTunes Review

Florence + the Machine deliver one baroque-pop anthem after another on Ceremonials. Featuring majestic, theatrical arrangements centered on Florence Welch’s remarkable vocals, this is a bolder and more dramatic offering than their debut, Lungs. Booming percussion, strings, echoing keyboards, and big guitars create a towering platform of sound from which Welch emotes with a fury. Her powerful voice erupts amid a gospel choir on “Shake It Out”, “What the Water Gave Me”, and “Leave My Body”, while tribal drums fuel “No Light, No Light” and “Heartlines”. Even the relatively subdued “Lover to Lover” builds to a spine-tingling crescendo. A distinctly British blend of Celtic, goth, and neo-soul influences, Ceremonials is a thickly layered and orchestral production that practically demands a visceral response from the listener. Fans will be blown away.

Better than Lungs!

You'd think it'd be hard to top her last Brit award winning album but she's managed it. I felt exhausted after the last song and was completely blown away. It's an absolute masterpiece and should be as big as "21".

Read a review by some numpty in the mail on Sunday slagging this record for being to commercial and pandering to the American market- what a complete idiot that man is! He obv didn't listen to this awesome piece of work before he wrote his pathetic attempt.
It's a beautiful, haunting album like Lungs but even bigger even better. Every tune is fantastic and I think Florence will be a massive superstar after people with open minds listen to this album.

Phenomenal!

This album is the perfection of my life right now! Highly recommendable to quite frankly... EVERYONE! :-)

Managed by the Camden-based DJ duo the Queens of Noize and backed by a rotating lineup of musicians, Florence + the Machine released...
