Florence and the Machine

[Edgnar]

Holy crap, this chick has got a voice and the Machine is pretty awesome too. Definitely pop music but good tunes.
A little taste..
Video is a bit weird, but the music is good.

She's super solid. "Binding" is a bitchin' song.

Got into a bunch of "girly" music hanging out with the last girlfriend. If you like Florence you should try Lykki Li, Feist, The Kills, and Cat Power... all amazing female vocalists.

I will add Portishead, and Goldfrapp to your list. Florence and the Machine reminds me of Siouxsie and the Banshees. Good stuff

Lungs is a fantastic album. Snagged it with the iTunes gift card that I got for Christmas.

No doubt...three of my favorites from back in the day. Saw Siouxie on the first or second Lollapaloza, "Killing Jar", "Dear Prudence"... unreal.

I love Florence + The Machine.

I really like some of Portishead's music, some of it is just OK.

I've been listening to Ceremonials lately - as I didn't know about Lungs - but I'll check it out via Spotify now: thanks! A good one from Ceremonials:

She's got some serious pipes, no doubt.
I'd echo the Portishead and Lykke Li recs. Portishead came through town a few months ago: every bit as good as they were ten years ago.
Also have enjoyed some of Thao Nguyen's stuff. Different genre perhaps, but good.
