Florence and the machine concert

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Yesterday I went to Parkteateret to see Florence and the machine again. I was hoping that the small stage indoors would significantly make it a better performance than at Øya. I wasn’t wrong. It didn’t hurt matters that the audience knew better what they were coming for either.

To sum things up, it was a great concert. It was pretty much the same songs as on Øya, but they now had an acoustic part which was really great. Her voice is just in a league of itself.

Well, as I’m busy enough not to post very often – here is a bunch of new music!

Mimo – Running Out (Fenech Soler remix)

Never heard about the Mungolians before, although familiar names in the setup. After listening to them on MySpace, I’m a bit curious.

This should be checked I think. First impressions are that I like their sound, so if it grows on me, it’s good.

Florence & The Machine (UK) Sjøsiden Torsdag 18:30

This is probably the concert I’m looking forward to the most. Florence Welch is 21 and was just nominated to the Mercury award and is also the favorite for winning it. I don’t disagree. Her album Lungs which was released on the 6th of June is an amazing debut album. It’s filled with pearls, both musically and lyrically. It is very, very rare that I can actually listen to whole albums these days. But this is one of them. You should too!

I’ve included some mp3s and some YouTubes. They are all favorites!

Florence And The Machine – Howl

Florence And The Machine – Cosmic Love

Florence And The Machine – Drumming

Glasvegas should be a familiar name. I actually first heard them when I saw their songs were very popular on Spotify. Not quite my cup of tea, but they are good.
