The MTV Unplugged concert radiates exactly this: personality. And although Florence Welch's voice threatened to break towards the end and they do not dare at the last sung hits DOG DAYS ARE OVER and SHAKE IT OUT, the high notes than just those to sing this concert recording can only be described as a complete success. The band hereby expresses her love for atmospheric pop out, which soundscapes full of melancholy, but also hope evokes. I would have liked to have heard the playful Electro-Pop numbers SPECTRUM and RABBIT HEART in this less-is-more-robe, but anyway ... It probably should not be so.
The sound breaks another blow for the purchase of this CD. Unlike, for example, the album Ceremonials by Florence + The Machine, the individual shots do not suffer from the Loudness Wars. The voice is always there and is never overshadowed by the instruments or by respectfully restrained reactions of the audience, resulting in no distortion and prevails a certain dynamic of soft and loud tones. Super, so I hear Pop prefer!
