Boycott Heaven, which features the single "Holy Roller," marks the first Format album in 20 years. The band broke up in 2008, after which frontman Nate Ruess went on to form fun.
The Format then reconvened in 2020 for a planned reunion tour, but it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They reunited again in 2025.
The Format will launch a full U.S. tour in support of Boycott Heaven in March.
