Florence & The Machine: How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful (2×LP) – LP

The next album from the acclaimed British act Florence + The Machine is titled How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful.

In the UK, this is undoubtedly one of the most highly anticipated releases of the year.

Recently, the new track Ship To Wreck made its global debut on British radio. UK critics are already calling it one of the most compelling works of Florence + The Machine's career to date.

"I was thinking about my own self-destructive side, and how you can build something up only to tear it down. You often end up destroying what you love the most," says singer Florence Welch about the new song.

Markus Dravs, who has also worked on successful releases by Björk, Arcade Fire, and Coldplay, produced the new album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful.

Florence and the Machine formed in London in 2007 and are one of the most prominent British breakthroughs of the last decade. They finished third in the BBC Sound of 2009 poll, and less than two months later, they picked up the Critics' Choice award at the BRIT Awards. In the summer of that year, they released their debut album Lungs (2009), which topped the UK album charts and earned a nomination for the prestigious Mercury Prize. Their second album, Ceremonials, followed in 2011.
