Now about "Ceremonials" and the music on the fully excited me. In a particular genre can not classify the album that sound 12 tracks very different. Hints of pop, rock, dance, classical music and so much more can be heard, partly so enchanting mixed and arranged that one can only marvel. Very impressed by the integration so (ur) classical instruments like harp, piano or wonderful string arrangements myself. The boundaries in music are fluid and are sometimes summarily undermined here. This is an incredibly broad musical spectrum results on one album. Of course, not every song a hit, but who expected that already.
Only if for a night - The cool sound is accompanied by a monotonous piano line, Strings elements make for good drama. Strong and beautiful presented with a clear melody - Pop at its best with hit potential.
Shake it out - After the peaceful introduction created a veritable Mitgröhler. Especially the refrain so simple as it is effective, animated literally to sing along. The sound is carried by hot drum sounds, the organ is perfectly integrated and despite the lack of guitars sounds's beautiful rocky.
What the Water Gave Me - Very unusual building, the increase in the sound is always interrupted by the quiet chorus. After each chorus is another element to the music and the title joins appear always bulky and perfect. What begins as a quiet pop ballad ends up being decent rock song. Geil.
Never let me go - That is not my case. Tiger gay and inflated song with sticky piano and monstrous Popballadensound. Would not the beautiful voice of Florence, one might almost think the song was borrowed from Celine Dion.
Breaking down - Loose, flaky and schmissig the music sounds here. A mixture of 70's disco and modern pop music, danceable and catchy. Alison Goldfrapp would probably enjoy playing this song.
Lover to Lover - What happens if you mix a piano accompanied Chanson with rock sounds can be heard here. The result is a cooler title entraining and immediate results. Timbre and superhot.
No light, no light - organ, harp and a cool dance sound. This fits well together. For this purpose a rousing melody and a voice that drifts partly in aria-like heights.
Seven Devils - Mystic and powerful ballad that is supported by a wonderful piano element. Then, when the choir attaches to the chorus that sounds as if the devil appear in the company of singers. Finster and threatening with eerie tension build - just awesome and a highlight of the album.
Heart Lines - published too late for over a year - because actually the title sounds like a typical football World Cup anthem for South Africa. Cool Buschtrommel elements in sound, a catchy melody and the usual Mitgröhlstellen. Perhaps the comparison is a little because a little more momentum the song already had tolerated, yet it works right away.
Spectrum - Now we take a trip to the dance scene. A geradlieniger trance sound and a decent beat quicken Florence downright to peak performance. Powerfully and absolutely intoxicating. Impressive as beautiful in this sound image classical harp was involved. In the intermediate part and at the end there's then a small harp solo. Another highlight of the plate.
All this and heaven too - a bit bumpy the basic sound appears. Again, the classical instruments were re-integrated perfectly. The fleet rock-pop title sounds good and is catchy.
Leave My Body - Beautiful rock ballad that is slightly painful emphasized straight. The chorus is very strong, the mixture of Florence's voice and the chorus sounds really cool. In the end, the song loses in an echo, which is kind of a cool end of the album.
Almost one wants to think that on this album something for everyone must be there, so versatile the music sounds. Whether's the big breakthrough is a Germany with us remains to be seen, most beautiful title shall be consulted in all cases. And I think there is probably still some people like me who to come in this 2nd album by Florence + The Machine as new fans.
