Expect more epic and invigorating stadium-fillers on florid British siren Florence Welch’s sophomore LP, Ceremonials (Universal). If lead single Shake It Out and buzz track What The Water Gave Me offer an accurate reading of the 25-year-old’s fluttering musical pulse, she and producer Paul “Rolling In The Deep” Epworth are aiming very big, save for a few purported detours into dubstep on one song (uh-oh) and woozy R&B territory of the Drake variety – perhaps the result of her reported studio sessions with Toronto’s hip-hop heartthrob? – on another.
