Earthquake Music: Flo+the Machine

In case you haven't evacuated your city yet, an earthquake just hit the Virginia-DC area and shook the whole east coast. Despite the eye-rolling of Californians, whose own state is just two shakes away from becoming an island, we here on the Atlantic are wondering what could have caused such terror. What's that you say? A shift of plate tectonics along a fault line? Okay fine, but let's be a little creative here. Did the earth tremor in sadness at news of the passing of legendary Motown songwriter Nick Ashford? Maybe it was freaked out that Selena Gomez covering Nicki Minaj's Superbass is considered rapping. More than likely, it involves something more geological. But maybe, just maybe, the earth was stoked to hear the just-released first single off of Florence+ The Machine's upcoming album. It's just a guess, but either way That's What the Water Gave Me is full of Florence's powerful vocals, haunting choral harmonies, and rain-dance percussion, all of which she promises will be highly featured on the new album set for release in the Fall.
