The Middle Eight

I grew up to the beat of electronic drums

I'm going out, I'm gonna drink myself to death

Florence + The Machine Hurricane Drunk



What a strange video. The parts with lighting effects and layered images are fine, but the bits where she's overlit and shot "flat" are surprisingly amateur. For those of you familiar with the imagery for Tori Amos' Under The Pink, this video reminds me of that. Hurricane is not my favorite choice for a single, but it works in terms of showing her range. Cosmic Love or Howl should have been next...

Good shoes though!

    Howl should be next, but I am over the moon with this release, it's probably my favourite after Rabbit Heart! And yeah, the video is rather dilettante, I agree.
