Kiss With a Fist
Kiss With a Fist – Florence and The Machine
A cynical parody voicing the cyclical nature of abusive relationships or just the kind of weird-sexy fetish stuff you discovered on your second read through the pages of vice, privately noted as a ‘sado-masochist goldmine’ and then continued to sheepishly indulge in at the back of the bus. Florence and her machine pound through the blues in full rockabilly swing, raucously accounting for a few smashed plates, a broken leg and an incinerated mattress. With a soulful but perfectly misplaced voice reminding you of inappropriately applied bright lipstick ‘Kiss with a fist’ is perhaps reminiscent of KT Tunstall after she actually admitted to committing bestiality with her Black Horse.
