About this album

Universal Music International Div. (2009) Released: 14 Aug 2009 14 tracks (49:48)
Florence Welch explained to Mojo magazine the album title: “I’ve done a lot of gigs where it’s just been me singing, and playing a drum. Drums are really important to me they’re like the heartbeat of music, and I think of the voice as the lungs. If you strip it down to its bare elements, that’s what it is, the lungs and the heart. The rest of the band is the body.” (Source Between Two Lungs Songfacts)

    Ceremonials is dark and ominous, mystery follows a lot of the tracks and seems rather Gothic at times. Despite all of this, I always find that album uplifting and inspiring, there's something about the production and the sound of the tracks that makes you feel like you can face anything. This album is much more scattered in terms of style. I think because the tracks are much more different to each other and the lyrics don't follow a set theme (like Ceremonials does) more people can relate to it. I believe Florence would have less fans if Ceremonials was the first album, simply because people find it harder to relate to - from what I've heard anyway. Both are breath-taking and deserve many plays. Ceremonials is my favourite out of the two though :))

    Ceremonials is awesome, but lungs is her precious gem, perhaps because it's much more simple and floral, Ceremonials has a great baroque pop orchestration, with organs and choirs, complex as ghosts and darkness, and lungs is just as simple as nature, breathing, trees and wind, that's what makes it so special.

    I haven't really been able to pull myself away from this album long enough to listen to Ceremonials properly. Lungs is a masterpiece and completely addicting.

    Yes, she's released only two albums, but Lungs is so much better and will probably be remembered as a masterpiece. Ceremonials is overproduced.

    isn't writing "still her best album" a bit ridiculous, when she released just 2 albums in general? still I prefer the new one, fell in love with it
