Florence The Machine announces Halloween album Everybody Scream

Florence The Machine announced a new album, Everybody Scream, set for release on October 31, Halloween, marking the band’s sixth studio project and their first since 2022’s Dance Fever. The act unveiled the title, cover art, and a preorder link, while confirming a 12-track collection that will be issued in multiple formats, including standard cassette, CD, and vinyl, along with special Chamber Versions that add four bonus tracks and an alternate cover. A Bloodwood Edition of the cassette also appears in the lineup, with several bundles available for fans.

The anticipation for Everybody Scream has built since a series of cryptic social media posts and a teaser video that showed Florence Welch digging a hole and then howling at the camera. The album’s artwork, released alongside the announcement, features Welch in a stark, atmospheric presentation, with the imagery reinforcing a gothic, Halloween-friendly aesthetic that aligns with the project’s title. While no lead single has been released yet, the band has indicated that more music will follow in the run-up to the autumn drop.

Details about the tracklist remain undisclosed, though preorder pages confirm 12 tracks will appear on...
