Artist of the Month | Florence + the Machine, Lungs

Lungs is the debut album from this Brit girl and her back-up band.  The sound blends soul, indie rock and alternative with strong vocals and an incredibly full sound. The album was released mid-July of 2009 in the UK and sat for several weeks at number 1 as well as snatching up a number of awards (and still going strong).

The entire album is solid, ranging from rocking fast songs to a few more experimental melodic tunes reminiscent of Milla Jovovich's The Divine Comedy.


Highlight tracks are Dog Days Are Over, Girl with a Fist, Between Two Lungs and the cover You've Got the Love (originally performed by Candi Staton).
