So I downloaded Ceremonials last night, the album from Florence + the Machine that I've been waiting for since, well, 2009 and my goodness, it is full of marvellousness and general awesome.
There's something quite epic, somewhat melodramatic and more than a little shadowy behind most of the songs on the album. It's a really solid, enjoyable affair, and Florence's ethereal vocals were made to be part of a harp/bass/choral ensemble.
Listening to this album is like having your heart shattered into pieces, reassembled, then exploding with joy, all in a breathless, dark night in the woods full of creaking trees and rustling leaves. Nothing short of fantastic; I love it.
