Florence + The Machine

Ja volim svaku njenu pesmu. Jednostavno zraci energijom! :D
Npr. kad sam cula 'Girl With One Eye' pomislila sam - jadan onaj ko joj se zameri. :D
Na novom albumu ima stvarno dobrih pesama. Ne znam da li ste culi ovu...

 
Skoro sam otkrila za Florence and The Machine, i to krajnje slučajno, preko jednog od trejlera za novu sezonu Igre prestola. :lol:

Oduševila me je energija koju sama Florence prenosi, i koliko god apsurdno delovalo, ima u pesmama nečeg altruističkog.

Nešto svakako novo i sveže na čitavoj inostranoj muzičkoj sceni.

Sada slušam:
 
Nadam se da nemate protiv da ponovo aktiviram ovu temu. :)
Poslednjih meseci baš često slušam Shake it out, pesma je stvarno divna. Takođe mi se dopada Dog days are over. :)

Ako nekoga zanima može da odsluša Glee verziju od Shake it out, mislim da je stvarno divno otpevana. :D
 
evo neke njihova biografija, mada ja nemam ba[ visoko mi[ljenje o njihovoj muzic

Biography

Florence And The Machine is a musical project fronted by Florence Welch. The rest members of this formation constitute the band called The Machine and play the music to the singing executed by Welch. The Machine lineup is composed by Robert Ackroyd, Christopher Lloyd Hayden, Isabella Summers and Tom Monger. Welch was born in the southern part of London and began revealing her artistic skills since her infant years. The girl’s parents used to hear numerous complaints from her teachers who were mad at her singing songs right during the classes. As a teenager, Florence grew deeply interested in the punk culture and loved the music played by Nirvana, and Green Day. During her college years, she discovered the works by the likes of The White Stripes and Kate Bush. She did not receive a diploma as she dropped out in a year and a half after the start of the studying to fully concentrate herself on music.

In 2007, Florence teamed up with The Machine. The music the new ensemble was about to play was built on the indie rock foundation with noticeable influence of soul. The lyrics of the songs by Florence And The Machine were also a peculiar aspect. Welch’s verses were overloaded with symbols and images to conceal safely the main idea. According to her own words, she preferred to write with focus on the questions of morality. The very first compositions by the beginning band found recognition among the critics and love of the audience. Moreover, the mass media were committed to drawing as much attention as possible to the emerging group. The most active was BBC featuring Florence And The Machine as one of the most promising acts of the Great Britain. At the Brit Awards 2009 ceremony, Florence received the Critics Choice Award, a special prize established a year before to highlight the remarkable young talents. To a large extent, it was due to the singer’s image. From the very start, Welch positioned herself as a willful and independent performer able to shock and surprise the listeners.

It was before the release of the first studio album when the nicely promoted Florence And The Machine played their gigs at Glastonbury and Reading festivals. Their first singles, Kiss With a Fist, and Dog Days Are Over, immediately became huge hits. After another single, Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up), reached the twelfth position in the national charts, it was clear that the up-coming full-length record was sure to receive warm welcome and be a bestseller. Entitled Lungs, this record arrived in July 2009. It soared to the second place in the British charts leaving the top only to late Michael Jackson.

Florence + The Machine - One of the Greats

– Ne znam baš kako da objasnim ovu pesmu, to je bila neka vrsta dugačke poeme o ceni veličine. Ko odlučuje šta je to? Zašto to uopšte želim? Zašto nikada nisam zadovoljna?
Osećam se kao da umrem pomalo svaki put kada snimim ploču, a na poslednjoj turneji sam umalo i bukvalno umrla. Ipak, uvek iskopam sebe da bih pokušala ponovo, uvek pokušavajući da udovoljim toj jednoj osobi kojoj se ne sviđa, ili da konačno osetim da sam napravila nešto savršeno i da mogu da se odmorim.
Rano u karijeri, bila sam dosledno ismevana i nipodaštavana zbog grandioznosti svog izraza. Gurnuta sam u centar pažnje, ali mi je iznova i iznova govoreno da to ne zaslužujem, ili da, pošto to nije po nečijem ukusu, nije dobro. Dakle, možda je ovo 15-godišnji izliv frustracije. Ali, takođe, mnoge stihove sam ostavila jer sam mislila da su smešni.
Mark Bowen iz IDLES-a i ja smo je napisali u jednom dahu. On je svirao gitaru, a ja sam je samo otpevala direktno sa stranice. Namerevali smo da je ponovo snimimo, ali prvi snimak je jednostavno imao neverovatnu energiju.
Zatim nam je Aaron Dessner pomogao da je dovedemo do istinski transcendentnog mesta. Htela sam da se na kraju osećaš kao da se raspadaš u ništavilu. Što je ponekad osećaj koji u meni stvara kreativni proces. Smrt i vaskrsenje iznova i iznova.
