Florence Welch, better known alongside her band as Florence & The Machine, confidently announces her arrival on 'Lungs'. With several strong singles taking up a fair portion of this debut release, it's clear that Welch is as much a pop writer as she is a left-field artist, despite the early influence of punk and grunge on her life. Musically, these influences are tempered by an admiration for soul and contemporary indie. Welch also received the Critics' Choice award at the Brits in 2009, usually a sign of big things to come. Includes the singles 'You've Got The Love' and 'Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)'.
