at least you have a crush on talented people like Chris, Florence and Guy unlike some other members on this forum............

OH SNAP. THIS JUST GOT REAL.

 

OMG. You acknowledged their epicness. I believe you have just made my day.

OMG So I just finished playing Dragon Age 2... I was all emotional at the end because I didnt want the game to finish... Then the credits rolled in with Florence and the Machine's 'I'm Not Calling You a Liar'! It's a really epic version though. Dunno if you guys have heard it, but it's PERFECTION!

 

EDIT: Found it on youtube! :bomb:

Too much epic.

^ I'm listening to it now. I like it! :wacko:

:dance: I like the fact that they reworked the music but it still sounds like something Florence and the Machine could have put in the Lungs album.

 

Agh! Dragon Age + Florence = head explosion.

hapinness...hit her...

Those pics were enough to make me follow that Tumblr. :sweatdrop:

Florence + the Machine has been nominated for the Time 100 Poll! It's basically this annual thing where Time magazine gets a hundred of the most influential people and feature them in a future issue. Those people include scientists, politicians, artists, athletes, humanitarians, etc. I don't know if it's all voted by readers, if Time picks them, or if it's a combination of both, though. :thinking:

 

You can go here to vote for her/them, if you wish. :nice:

 

Here's Time's little blurb on FATM on that page:

 

Though the flaming-haired Brit's debut album came out way back in 2009, Florence Welch's songs (she records with a backing band as Florence and the Machine) truly found their audience in 2010. Between her visually stunning performance of the rousing "Dog Days Are Over" at the MTV Video Music Awards and her appearances at both the Grammys and the Oscars, Welch is one of pop music's most unique and flamboyant singers.

"Age: 4"

 

Really, Time? BAHAHA.

I think they mean the number of years FATM has been active as a musician/band. I did a double take when I saw that number, though. :lol:

Oh, OK. That makes a bit more sense.

 

...But wait, aren't they talking about Florence for this, as opposed to the entire band? That doesn't really add up.

Yeah, that's what confuses me. :blank: To me, it seems like they're leaning more towards Florence as an individual.

If that's the case, then why are they bringing The Machine into this? I mean, I know musically that The Machine is a HUGE part of everything, but if you're going to do what Time is doing, say that it's Florence Welch, not Florence + the Machine. Contrary to what some might think, they're NOT the same thing.

I love the:

...euh... IN AMERICA!! :lol: Flo was huge in Europe and mostly England already in 2008...XD

 

To me, it seems like they're leaning more towards Florence as an individual.

Yeah, but F+tM has a bastard status...it's not really a band...it's the recording/touring name of a singer...so it's not shocking me they pointed Flo out more than the others...

No, because Florence herself refers to her band members as "The Machine." They're a completely different entity. Also, temporary or not, it's still a band; it counts.

 

At any rate, the last bit of your comment confuses me. Exactly what point are you trying to make?

we agree :) I just said I understood why they were pointing Flo more than the others, even if they were putting 'F+tM' on the poll.

See above ^^

Oh. NVM then. Sorry 'bout that.

New video with Florence and Isa:

 

SHLOFT.

I like that she and Isa are keeping thing low-fi to make the demos. Keep them grounded! Love you girls!

More album news!!!

 

Florence And The Machine's new album is going to be a lot "heavier" than her 2009 debut 'Lungs', according to producer Paul Epworth.

 

Speaking to BBC 6Music, Epworth, who is working on the album with Florence Welch in London's Abbey Road Studios, also said that the singer's second album would be done by "the end of July".

 

He said of the way the new album is sounding: "It's going to be more stripped down, but it's heavy, rhymically. It's a much heavier record than the first album."

 

Epworth added that he believed Welch was moving away from her indie roots into different territories. He said: "It's a lot less indie and lot more soulful."

 

The producer also indicated that there were 16 songs up for inclusion on the album, but that this would be whittled to fewer than that by the time it comes to be released.
