What an unarguably breathtaking vocal ability Florence Welsh demonstrated in the 2009 release of her debut album, ‘Lungs’. However, it seems in her second album, ‘Ceremonials’, that The Machine has begun to dig its heels in a bit. I’m hearing all of the things originally presented in 2009, but with more umph from the instrumentation.
