Meet Florence Welch, the most sincere vocalist this side of 30. Backed by a rocking band, her voice is equally at home over handclaps and a tambourine as it is screaming out over hard drums and guitars. Her catchy "Kiss With A Fist" got me hooked, but the soul that pours out of "Hospital Beds" made me a fan for life. Her voice completely fills out the melody making the song infinitely interesting despite the constant tom drum and acoustic strumming. The lyrics are amazingly intricate and visual despite the slow tempo and short length.
The album,
