Skip to main content Florence and the Machine Courtesy of UMG Trending on Billboard Everybody Scream, the new album from Florence + The Machine, tops this week’s fan-voted music poll. Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (Oct. 31) on Billboard, choosing Florence Welch’s latest work as their favorite new release. Everybody Scream was let loose on Halloween, in a week that also saw new releases from Tyler, The Creator, Reneé Rapp, Brent Faiyaz and more. Florence + The Machine’s sixth full-length studio album brought in 53% of the vote. The timing of the set’s release is fitting: “For this album, I didn’t realize how close death was,” Welch recently said in a cover-story interview with L’Officiel. “It was sort of like, Oh, death is just a doorway. Also, if the last album [Dance Fever] was a fairy tale, this one is a horror film, so it all made sense.” Florence + the Machine See latest videos, charts and news The frontwoman was referring to her experience suffering an ectopic pregnancy onstage — which caused her fallopian tube to rupture and required emergency surgery — in 2023. “As you can see, I have this well of grief that I’m trying to find ways to navigate,” she said. “I was in this fog, and I had to find meaning and my own belief system.” Brandi Carlile Returns to 'SNL' to Perform Songs From 'Returning to Myself' Jessica Simpson Marks 8 Years of Sobriety: 'Alcohol Silenced My Intuition' Tame Impala Resurrects 'Sundown Syndrome' at Halloween Barclays Show “This is the most personal album I’ve ever made, but it’s also my most mythological in a sense. I wanted to create my own folk horror songs within it,” she explained in the interview. The 12-song tracklist of Everybody Scream is led by its title track followed by “One of the Greats,” both of which were previewed ahead of the full collection’s release. Looking ahead to performing the music from Everybody Scream live on tour, Welch told NPR that the stage is her place “to let how big the feelings are out, you know? Like, if I feel deranged, which sometimes I often do, and if I feel like I want to scream but I can’t, or I want to weep but I can’t, or just to move my body, like, violently almost, to get something out of me. That is my favorite thing about songs is they hold so many different things at once, and that’s my favorite thing about performance. You know, it is endless.” Among the new releases trailing behind Everybody Scream are Tyler, The Creator’s “Mother,” with 15% of the vote; Reneé Rapp’s “Lucky,” with 6% of the vote, and Brent Faiyaz’s “Have To,” with 2% of the vote. Twenty percent of voters chose “other,” meaning their personal pick was not on the list. See the final results of this week’s poll below.
