I just found this band and I have to say, they're absolutely amazing. I love the singer's voice.

ZOMG, this is awesome.  I've heard them elsewhere, but never got a cue to who they were.  She's got an awesome voice.

Lovin' it. Sort of a Kate Bush type feel. :thumbsup:

"Howl" is probably my favorite song on this album, followed closely by "Drumming Song" and "Girl With One Eye."

They're HUGE over this side of the pond - and well deserved. I've seen them live and Florence is majestic to watch as she performs.  :thumbsup:

If you like this, also try Marina and The Diamonds...

I wonder if there are 10,000 teenagers on YouTube right now arguing about whether Florence Welch is or isn't copying Lady Gaga, or vice versa. I bet there are, but I can't be arsed going to look.

I just discovered Flo and the machine a few weeks back, and found out that they were in concert here with just enough time to not be able to go :'(  I found them because they have a song that is on the Snow White and the Huntsman soundtrack.  I believe that it is not on any of her albums.  Good good stuff.

I'm not a big fan, but I enjoy their songs as long as they are not totally overplayed in the radio. If you ask me in certain songs Florence's voice sounds very Annie-Lennoxy :)

Their 2011 album - Ceremonials - is pretty good writing music for me.   :thumbsup:
