Florence + The Machine

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Every time a new female singer appears in this country who isn't one from the Leona Lewis school of X factor singers, she inevitably gets compared to Kate Bush. Bat for Lashes was one, and she is very good, but Florence + The Machine is probably the closest I've heard. "Lungs" is an absolutely brilliant CD, the use of percussions and multi-layered vocals is reminiscent of Kate. And dare I say it, this CD is actually better than some of Kate's (but don't tell her I said that).

Highly recommended.

	I think the kid's talented. There's a little bit of Siouxie Sioux in there too. Strong voice and good songs. Very promising. Great set of pins too.

	Yeah... I just get the Special Edition CD and is great... this girl really have an original voice timbre and has a lot of strengh... The music is good, with little folk elements and a lot of percussions... I recomend it to anyone who likes original music... I didn't heard so good music on Pop in several years... hope she keep singing...
