The sunflower emoji continues the floral theme that the band has embraced in their recent music hints. On April 16, they updated their social media channels, launching a new logo and directing fans to their website. Users are prompted to enter a password by clicking the link.

This leads to a site named Bloom – Wolf Alice. Beneath the new black and gold logo, a phrase reads: “Each flower needs the neighborhood with dirt.”

Fans who submitted their email addresses received a message with the subject “Bloom.”

This email appears to contain a lyrical sheet, starting with the lines: “Do I have to force you, sit in your arms/ damn, baby, baby/ you want me to show you who I am/ see this fire in my eyes, a boy/ This is your flash in a pan.” The handwritten note also includes previously mentioned lyrics: “Each flower should focus with dirt.” Another line states: “But I bloom baby bloom/ I will see me and you will see that I am standing.

Meanwhile, lead vocalist Ellie Rowsell has continued the flower theme, sharing numerous flower images on her personal Instagram. In contrast, bassist Theo Ellis posted just one flower emoji on X/Twitter.

Speculation regarding new music from Wolf Alice started when they were announced as part of Glastonbury’s lineup for 2025. They will also perform in Liverpool next month.

Back in 2022, Wolf Alice received several NME nominations, including Best Album by a British Artist and Best Album in the World for Blue Weekend. They also won the award for Best Festival Headliner.
