Hey look, if they were giving a legit opinion (some of the songs are too boring or I miss the old Florence), something like that, I'd disagree but understand their opinion. But when it's something stupid like saying it sounds like her old work, I can't accept that as an opinion lol

We all wanted something like Cerimonial cause it's a phenomenal record, but she came with something fresh and genuine at the same time. I'm so happy so far.

Suddenly I'm overcome,
dissolving like the setting sun,
like I've fallen into oblivion,
'cause you're driving me away.
Now you have me on the run,
the damage is already done,
Come on,is this what you want
'cause you're driving me away.

"Some things never sleep" sings Florence in 'Queen Of Peace', and you get the feeling that one day (in the far off future, of course), that may well be the inscription on her headstone. But for now, Flo is referring not to herself, but instead her ceaseless tormentor, as she leads a controlled cacophony into battle to soundtrack the album’s most cinematic outburst, with strings and horns aplomb.

The Dora thing is getting a little .......
Love their description of QOP above! It's kind of a confusing song, weird to understand.
Love how this album gives off very significant vibes of the early Lungs songs and even some of her unreleased--My Best Dress, Tear Out Your Tongue, Throwing Bricks, Halloween, Little Donkey, and Small Hands, namely. Very clearly influences, just evolved versions of them.

Read the reviews, and still we have people claiming that these songs are just like the old ones....I remain perplexed at those statements. Its like they expect Florence to decide that she wants to sing only with a banjo and that her lyrics will be in Navajo.
That said, me feeling now is that the album will end solidly in the mid 70's in Metacritic, like Ceremonials did.

DDDDDDD banjos and Navajo creys
I'm hoping for higher than C and lower than L. Anything lower than 75 is simply an injustice for a FATM album  in fact, Ceremonials deserved the 79, and Lungs deserved 80+
It's ridiculous, really, that Ceremonils is only slightly higher than basic pop girls' albums (no offense)
