Arriving three-and-a-half years after 2011's well-received Ceremonials, the 11-track set, the first Florence + the Machine album to be produced by Markus Dravs (Arcade Fire, Coldplay), eschews some of the bombast and water- and death-fixated metaphors of Lungs and Ceremonials in favor of a more restrained sonic scope and an honest reckoning with the dark follies of your late twenties. This change is most notable on the workmanlike opener \"Ship to Wreck,\" a shimmering, open road-ready folk-rock rumination on the ambiguity\/inevitability of post-fame self-destruction that, unlike prior first cuts like \"Dog Days Are Over\" and \"Only If for a Night,\" feels firmly rooted in the now. The bluesy (and ballsy) \"What a Man,\" the propulsive and purposeful \"Delilah,\" and the gorgeous title track impress the most. Instead of building to a fevered crescendo, as is the Flo-Machine way, the latter cut, a transcendent, slow-burning, chamber pop gem, dissolves into a simple and elegant, yet still goose-bump-inducing round of horns, and is breathtaking without knocking the wind out of you. ~ James Christopher Monger\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Ship To Wreck2.What Kind Of Man3.How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful4.Queen Of Peace5.Various Storms \u0026amp; Saints1.Delilah2.Long \u0026amp; Lost3.Caught4.Third Eye5.St Jude6.Mother\u003cbr\u003e1.Ship To Wreck\u003cbr\u003e2.What Kind Of Man\u003cbr\u003e3.How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful\u003cbr\u003e4.Queen Of Peace\u003cbr\u003e5.Various Storms \u0026amp; Saints\u003cbr\u003e1.Delilah\u003cbr\u003e2.Long \u0026amp; Lost\u003cbr\u003e3.Caught\u003cbr\u003e4.Third Eye\u003cbr\u003e5.St Jude\u003cbr\u003e6.Mother\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Island \/ Republic \/ Umr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51431673397537,"sku":"602478209673","price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/602478209673.jpg?v=1751196034","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-au\/products\/602478209673","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
