“To be performing and nominated at this years VMAs is completely amazing and especially for the song ‘Dog Days.’ I recorded that song in a cupboard with no instruments and the sound of the drums was me banging my hands on the wall, clacking pens on Mpc’s and generally causing a cacophony with anything I could lay my hands on,” said Florence + The Machine. “For this song to be recognized at such an iconic event is a total dream."
