Welch first sparked speculation over her return to music by sharing a series of snaps on her socials over the past few months.
Taking to Instagram she shared a series of images, alongside the caption "Toil and trouble," which appear to see her in the studio with IDLES guitarist Mark Bowen as well as display the word October, which could hint at an Autumn album date for the band.
The photo of the musician’s notebook contained some possible themes for the next F+TM record, such as “witchcraft”, “folk horror”, “magic” and “insanity”
Everybody Scream marks the first record since Florence + The Machine's Dance Fever album, which included the singles King and I'm Free.
