Review by Riffiter

Lungs

Florence + the Machine · 2009

4.0

Lungs announced a voice that treats every song like a séance: harps, pounding toms and Florence Welch's hurricane contralto turn breakups into pagan rituals. "Dog Days Are Over" became inescapable; "Cosmic Love" out-dramatizes everything near it. Gothic maximalism as debut statement — overwrought by design, irresistible in practice.
