Florence And The Machine reveal new album details
Dark direction hinted at for sophomore effort
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 23 May 2011
Florence And The Machine frontwoman Florence Welch has shared some insight into the writing process of the currently untitled follow-up to 2009's critically-acclaimed debut album Lungs.
In an interview with Nylon Magazine, the flame-haired singer revealed that the lyrical content of the next album will have a supernatural and personal feel.
''A lot of the songs on the new album are about imaginary things," she said. "Things that you can't touch: ghosts and rumours, my dead grandmother, things visiting you in a dream.
As Welch approaches her mid-twenties, she has taken the time to pause and reflect on her life.
"It feels as if there's still a lot of questioning left to do," she said. "Just because I'm happy in my relationship, I've still got issues to deal with. I'm going to be 25 and I feel like I've got to be a grown-up now. I feel like your life is always a battle between safety and freedom.''
