Florence + The Machine - Ceremonials

Review by David Edwards

Ceremonials resolves in three sections: a stunning win at the first, an abject defeat with the second and a hard-fought draw to conclude proceedings. »

florence and the machine's new album is titled 'ceremonials' and released on halloween. the follow-up to 2009's 'lungs', is built around the 'big' themes of "love, death, violence and guilt". there's big moments of confession in it, overcoming your demons and trying to find in song the ultimate hangover cure. the lp was recorded at london's abbey road studios with producer paul epworth. it's more stripped down but also much heavier than 'lungs'.
