I know the Everybody Scream era is not even over yet (though we are getting close) but still I'm wondering what could the next album be like.
Let's not talk about how she always wants to quit, let's just say there's a new album coming again in a few years. What will it be like?

For me, her previous eras kinda work in pairs. With Lungs she created her own mythical world and I feel like Ceremonials was like a darker, more polished follow up, still packed with glitter and magic. With HB3 she went into more personal territories, breakup songs, more trendy, stripped back visuals and then continued to strip it all down in High As Hope. I think Dance Fever was a return to form, but grown up, seeing someone real professional acknowledging herself as kind of her own mythological creation if that makes sense. For me, Everybody Scream is definitely again a follow up to Dance Fever, leaning more into the horror side of it all, bringing in darker personal stories.

So what could the 7th album bring us? I think she truly enjoys working with her current creative team so that might mean we'll see a third installment in the Florence + Autumn De Wilde universe, with Thunderwing studio designs and supporting visuals by Andrea Zanatelli. As much as I'd love it, I fear it could be a bit repetitive so there's probably a bit of change expected.

As for topics: peace is coming? Morning Elvis on Dance Fever foreshadowed what's next: Florence basically giving birth to new songs on the cover of Everybody Scream because she can't (and doesn't really want to) quit. I wonder if we'll get a peace&love kind of era from her the next time, if And Love is hinting at the future again.

What do you all think? I'd love to read everyone's thoughts, wishes. Just for fun. Again, I know the current era is still on and I'm fully enjoying it. The thing is I just can't get enough of her art and vision amd am always curious about what's next.

Hey all I could swear I remember reading an article from the Dance Fever era that talked about the behind the scenes for the Free music video and Autumn De Wilde being the one to suggest Bill Nighy play her anxiety and some comment about like the bits where he's talking just being like 'somebody said you were annoying today' and stuff like that, I swear I read or heard this somewhere and now I cant find it! Does anybody else remember this?

I was wondering if anyone else here from the reddit is going and would like to meet? I can't wait to see Florence on stage again!

2 days ago I finally witnessed my first F+TM show, in Milan.

I still feel totally overwhelmed by how incredible it was. It's like she bewitched me and now I just need to see her over and over again. I truly hope this isn't her last tour, cause I need to experience her again.

Is there any hope Queen of Peace might get rotated into the setlist for upcoming festival shows?

I’m going to see FATM in Finland and it’s my number one song, so I am really manifesting it to be played.

It seems that on the 2023 festival tour they rotated it in for select shows, so fingers crossed 🤞

Anyone else rooting for it too?

I just realised she isn’t wearing any and haven’t been for a while!

at the Milan show yesterday she was wearing black and i thought she looked a bit pale, and then she started the sermon, and the force was flowing through her, and she was radiant.

and now looking back in all the recent interviews and appearances it does not look like she’s wearing any.

did anyone also notice that, and for how long? since “how big, how blue, how beautiful“ or before?

I find it mesmerising when a person is so truly themselves in their presence and style that you can’t pick out a single detail of how it was done, you’re just overcome by the impact. love to be able to learn how people do that

Hello! I just wanted to know if there is anyone goingnto mad cool! Any groups or anything to talk aand support each other while we are there

Edit: I have found a fan acc on instragam giving updates and helping people (fatmspainfanclub)

Hey yall! This is kind of a repeated post but Im getting desperste with these so I hope its okay.

During Opener festival in Poland I had a sign that said "Here just for Silas"(ftwdk Silas is the blonde one in the witch choir), which was noticed by the aforementioned Silas leading to them interacting with me(pointing, waving etc) during the show. I have absolutely no videos of this and would kill for one of the end of the show when they were walking offstage.

Does anyone have any of said videos of the very end/very beggining? Or any idea where I could get those?

If its of any use I had Dog days are over facepaint and had barricade on the right side of the stage, anything helps!

I’ve just listened to: “How big how blue how beautiful” for the first time and the album blew me away. The album took me on a journey, the artist led the way .. how to describe?

It was beautiful. ❤️

hey yall!! i’ve been seeing flo post about wider tour ranger merch available at the festivals so far. does anyone have pics of the merch from the festivals im very curious what the “wider range” is and hoping that includes the previous NYC exclusive since those are on the website now

For me it would probably be White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane, or Prayers for rain by The Cure.
I know she is certainly a fan of both bands.
