Background

In 2015, Stereophonics released their ninth studio album, Keep the Village Alive, and supported it with the Keep the Summer Alive Tour throughout late-spring and summer 2016. During the tour, Kelly Jones announced he would like to release the band's tenth studio album "before next summer" to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Word Gets Around, rather than release a compilation album.[4][5] In February 2017, the band signed with Parlophone Records to release Scream Above The Sounds,[6] having been on their own Stylus Records label for Graffiti on the Train and Keep the Village Alive.

On 27 July, Stereophonics revealed the name, release date and album artwork for Scream Above the Sounds, as well as releasing the lead single "All in One Night".[7] The single was accompanied by a video directed by Joseph Connor.[8] "All in One Night" was inspired by Victoria and was written when the band were touring in Shanghai with Jones in a hotel due to a delayed flight. "I was in this hotel and it was basically an idea I had after watching this German film called ‘Victoria’, which is about this girl who goes into a nightclub and ends up hooking up with these three guys," Jones continued "I thought the idea of two people meeting and their life completely changing over the course of one night was quite an interesting idea."[9]

The next single was "Caught by the Wind", which was released on 4 September 2017 along with a music video. On 20 October the band released the song "Before Anyone Knew Our Name" through their YouTube channel, and on 24 October they performed "Taken a Tumble" on Later... with Jools Holland.

Title and artwork

"The title comes from my feeling that we’re constantly being bombarded with information, at the moment it’s mainly bad news, but you can’t get away from it. You need to be able to separate yourself from all that, to decompress, I think too much people are over-reliant on it.”

Kelly Jones[10]

The cover art was designed by Graham Rounthwaite, who also designed the artwork to the band's fifth studio album Language. Sex. Violence. Other?

The title of the album was taken from a line in the single 'All In One Night'. Kelly Jones said the title of the album didn't come easy. "It’s always the last thing. Scream Above The Sounds came to me one night, we were mixing the album and the line jumped out at me."[10]

Release

The album was released on 27 October 2017 on CD, vinyl and digital download formats, with the downloaded edition including a digital booklet. A deluxe edition was released at the same time with five bonus tracks. Two unplugged versions of previously released songs from the album – "Caught By The Wind" and "All In One Night" and three previously unreleased songs – "Never Going Down", "Drive a Thousand Miles" and "Breaking Dawn". The sticker on the deluxe CD mistakenly lists the tracks "What's All the Fuss About?" and "Would You Believe?" as singles, despite the fact that they had not been released previously.
