You've probably seen this already. New video for Florence And The Machine's "Drumming Song." It's definitely "louder than sirens louder than bells sweeter than heaven and hotter than hell." If you don't own her debut LP yet, do your ears a favor and grab it over at insound

Noah and the Whale from Black Cab Sessions on Vimeo.

Charlie Fink of Noah And The Whale went back to the Black Cab Sessions to do another take. This time with band member Tom 'T-Bone' Hobden instead of friend and fellow music maker [and gorgeous] Laura Marling. They played "Blue Skies" from the upcoming album The First Days Of Spring

Saw this yesterday. Still really impressed by the chemistry

[MP3] Noah and The Whale - The First Days Of Spring

I'm skipping out on the Weekend Fundown. I'm sorry. Not really. I'll share a new[ish] song instead.

Noah And The Whale released one of my fave albums of 2008 last year with Peaceful, The World Lays Me Down. I first got into them by watching the always care-free styles of Vincent Moon's Take Away Shows. Watching them play Rocks And Daggers in a train in Paris still makes me wish I were actually there.

The new album entitled The First Days Of Spring is due out August 31st. You can read more about the album and a new film written by the gang themselves on their official blog
