Scottish synth-pop titans CHVRCHES have officially announced their fifth studio album, All The King’s Men, scheduled for release on January 22, 2027. The eagerly awaited collection follows their return single "Roses" and ends an extended hiatus since 2021’s acclaimed Screen Violence, a period during which members Lauren Mayberry, Iain Cook, and Martin Doherty stepped away to pursue solo and collaborative projects before reconvening in Glasgow.
The band describe the new recording sessions as a deliberate return to exploratory roots, drawing upon acoustic British songwriting traditions, post-punk urgency, and adventurous electronic production. In addition to "Roses", the LP gathers newly refined compositions that the trio road-tested during recent festival appearances and unannounced performances, marking a renewed creative momentum for the Glasgow trio.
Alongside the album reveal, CHVRCHES have outlined an extensive international tour kicking off in North America in February 2027 before moving across Britain and Ireland in the spring. Ahead of the major dates, two intimate charity appearances are scheduled for late October in Glasgow and London, giving longtime supporters an early glimpse of the new stage show.

Fans will have to keep their dancing shoes polished until January, but the lead single and newly announced tour schedule provide ample proof that CHVRCHES have returned with their anthemic spark fully recharged.
