Our Pick of the Year: Lungs by Florence and the Machine
Lungs introduced Florence Welch's voice through arrangements built from drums, harp, guitars and large choruses. Dog Days Are Over, Rabbit Heart and You've Got the Love suited radio and festival stages without flattening the album's darker imagery. The record helped set the scale of British indie-pop in the early 2010s.
