Despite a shift in tone & approach, the captivating vocals of Florence Welch still highlight Florence & the Machine's 3rd LP 'How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful'. The horn-heavy front half is as grandiose as its predecessor, but the latter half is more restrained, with Welch's vulnerable side taking over to mixed results. Produced by Markus Dravs, there is a downplaying of rhythms, but the well-crafted melodies are simply sublime. Ultimately, this is not only a dynamic record which should bode well for the act's future, but is also a darn fine album on its own merits. Recommended Tracks: What Kind of Man, Delilah, How Big How Blue How Beautiful & Ship to Wreck.

Nah Ceremonials is her best work.

I have to go with Ceremonials as tops, but goddamn, her voice is so beautiful.

"Third Eye" and "St. Jude" shouldn't work for me but she knows just how far to take a sound without overdoing it
