NEWS// Florence and the Machine: Shake It Out MP3


You've all heard of Florence and the Machine, and 'Shake It Out' is just another stunning number from the band. From a throbbing, subtly building start, Florence explodes with a drum beat and that tone of hers that sounds fantastic. "Tonight I'm going to bury that horse in the ground" goes one line that I'm particularly fond of, before the harmonised chorus demands a dance. One thing the group do so, so well, is that sonic build. They layer sound upon sound so effortlessly that when the climax comes round, you're blown away. Her songs are larger than life, but retain an honesty that clicks. Stream it up above!

NEWS// Florence and the Machine: What the Water Gave Me MP3

I know everybody is going to be posting this, but if anyone only reads Music Dissection (I highly doubt this), I want them to experience this track too. And it really is a good'un. Full of lush texture and a somewhat creepy 'Wicker Man' esque cover, 'What the Water Gave Me' is absolutely fantastic. Full of builds and satisfying climaxes, turn your volume up and rock along. Whatever your thoughts on Florence and her crew, you can't deny she records some brilliant stuff.
