Here's my very own review of Flo's album for the rather nifty website differentscene.co.uk! :)

Absolutely! The debut had many cracking songs, but I didn't like all of it. With this one, I love everything on it! It's one of those uber-rare no-skipping-required albums.

I might go back and reinvestigate the debut now. Did you love it?

Yes! :D And the odd thing this time is that only a couple of them were my own Facebook friends, so the others are properly legit 'likes. Encouraging!

I've been taking a leaf out of your book and spread the link on Flo-related threads on Popjustice, ATRL and her own Facebook page. ;)

So far I'm loving it. Far more consistent than "Lungs". The only quibble I have is that it could have done with some variety. I know the songs aren't all the same, but they all *sound* the same. A couple of quiet tracks would've been welcome.
Yes. While the quality of the writing and production is undeniable, it all melds together towards the end to the point of giving me a headache. Yes you have a distinct style but change it up a bit please.

She is very mannish - could almost be a drag queen - A handsome woman.

Yes, she's a very unusual looking woman. So striking! The world definitely doesn't need another Pixie Lott.
