Florence & The Machine are rejoicing at the Brit Awards, having won the most valuable prize of all - according to the British Academy of Music, they have made the best British album of the past year!!!Florence and the Machine are a young English band who were very high in all the new star polls for 2009 at the beginning of last year, and even before the release of their album, they won the Brit Awards Critics' Choice Award.The album was nominated for the prestigious Mercury Awards. Florence has not disappointed and has produced a truly spectacular album that balances the line between buoyant pop and wild rock with magnificent harp sounds, all led by Florence's absolutely magical voice. "Lungs is a record that is impossible to listen to because it is so intricately interwoven and well thought out that it cannot be fully humbled. All the hype surrounding this young Englishwoman is - pay up, Gordon Brown - completely justified." MUSICSERVER.CZ "Imaginative choruses and melodies that take their time and gradually wrap you up are just one piece of the puzzle. For Florence's snappy verve and passion infuse each of her metaphorical verses, and through longing, rage, tenderness and simple storytelling, her record gains in durability. For she doesn't rely on a single subterfuge, hiding mysteriously for a moment, then brutally revealing herself. You won't discover it so easily, but you'll want it all the more..."
