Heavy in Your Arms

Florence + the Machine

A heavy, claustrophobic gothic romance that feels both physically crushing and spiritually soaring.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the sparse, ominous piano intro into the crushing, hip-hop-influenced drum break.
The explosive bridge where Florence Welch's vocals multiply into a towering, self-harmonized gothic choir.
The final, breathless vocal run that hangs suspended in a massive cloud of cavernous reverb as the beat drops out.
