Florence + the Machine have revealed “Sympathy Magic,” a new song off their upcoming album Everybody Scream. Florence Welch and co. stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to give the new track its television debut on Sunday night, and today, they’ve shared the song’s official music video.
Rather than the exorcism found in lead single “Everybody Scream,” “Sympathy Magic,” written and produced with Danny L. Harle and Aaron Dessner, takes on a more searching, empowering tone. Welch continuously dials up the urgency before releasing out into a wide open belt, going for full catharsis as she cries, “So come on, come on, I can take it/ Give me everything you got” in the song’s bridge.

Florence + the Machine have offered the official music video for “Sympathy Magic,” which takes place in a similar locale to the visualizer for “Everybody Scream.” In the video, Welch basks in soft green grass and dances with a quartet of movers around her, eventually physicalizing the song’s brimming passion by literally standing on the edge of a cliff and screaming out the words. Watch it below.

Welch and her band also returned to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to give “Sympathy Magic” its debut on Sunday night. With signature harp, plucked strings, a small choir, and more ornate orchestration, Welch’s composition came to life during the performance; her vocal prowess on full display as she ran through a faithful, passionate rendition of the song, which finds Welch (essentially) laying it all out on the floor. Watch their performance below.
