Bringing  along her soaring, ethereal voice, flame-haired Florence Welch leads  her Machine back for their 2nd LP 'Ceremonials'. Unapologetically more  sumptuous & grandiose than its captivating predecessor, the usual  cavalcade of instruments & fantastic rhythms are once more evident.  More cohesive than 'Lungs', Paul Epworth's huge-sounding production  initially muffles diversity & lacks restraint, but 'Ceremonials'  turns out to be a real grower. It is ultimately a winner too, due to its  bewitching nature, stirring highlights, rousing climaxes & alluring  vocals. Recommended Tracks: What The Water Gave Me, Shake It Out,  Spectrum, No Light No Light & Heartlines.
