““It’s your troubled hero / Back for season six”, Florence Welch sings on ‘The Old Religion’ – a note of irony ringing through her distinctly sirenic voice. Yet rather than a tale of her singular torment, her sixth album as Florence + The Machine – the aptly-titled ‘Everybody Scream’ – mostly operates as a collective exorcism of the horrors and hopes inherent to womanhood. Weeks ahead of the album”

“Florence Welch and her band enlist Mitski, Aaron Dessner, Danny L. Harle, and IDLES’ Mark Bowen to make a guttural, flinty rock record. Though sometimes overwrought, the album often intoxicates with its folk-horror atmosphere and Welch’s magisterial-as-always vocals.”

“Everybody Screams is Florence + The Machine at their most intimate and theatrical. The chamber arrangements strip the songs down to their emotional bones, letting Florence’s voice feel haunting, human, and incredibly powerful. The strings, piano, and softer production choices turn familiar tracks into new emotional experiences—you can practically feel the breath between every note. Not every reimagined moment hits with the same intensity, but the album as a whole feels bold and beautifully curated. It’s a reminder of Florence’s unmatched ability to blend raw vulnerability with soaring drama. A stirring, elegant rework that proves her music thrives in any form.”
