Florence + The Machine announced their sixth studio album, Everybody Scream, slated for release on October 31, 2025. The eponymous title track premieres today, accompanied by a visually arresting video directed by Autumn de Wilde.
Over the past two years, singer Florence Welch crafted Everybody Scream with her closest collaborators. Notably aboard this creative journey are Mark Bowen of IDLES, who also appears in the new video, alongside Aaron Dessner and Mitski. This album marks a deeply personal chapter informed by Welch’s own lifesaving surgery during the Dance Fever tour. Her recovery took her through a terrain of spiritual mysticism, witchcraft, and folk horror as she confronted the fragility of the body and explored what it means to be “healed.”
Thematically, Everybody Scream traverses womanhood, partnership, aging, and mortality, uncovering the eerie in the everyday.
