Florence + The Machine‘s fourth record has been hoped for since the release of her band’s acclaimed third album ‘How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful’. That was in 2015.
There’s been a new record from the songstress at least every three years. the excellent ‘Lungs’ was released in 2009 which was followed by ‘Ceremonials’ in 2011. So it’s highly likely we can expect another in 2018.

It’s been reported that Florence has been working on the record with producer Brett Shaw, who worked on 2015’s ‘How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful’ As revealed by Spanish music blog Binaural, the official website of London’s Miloco Studios claims that Shaw spent a large part of 2017 working on the new Florence album.
‘Brett has spent 2017 recording the upcoming Florence And The Machine Album at 123 studios and out in L.A.’
Binaural has also shared a birthday message from Florence to Shaw which is dated as January 2017. That implies that the new record has been in development for well over a year.
