#16 | SAULT | Nine
Forever Living Originals | Buy via Turntable Lab

According to Patrick Corcoran: “SAULT always do a tremendous job of balancing the darkness and light—no matter how angry, worn down or dejected they may be, it is always counterbalanced by hope and a sense of self determination. This album is no different. If you can move hips, that is great. If you can move minds, then that is equally good. But to do both (as SAULT have consistently done) is to hit the sweetest of spots—that can be world-changing. While it doesn’t hit the same spine-tingling euphoric heights as 2020’s ultra-dynamic duo, Nine is another excellent addition to the group’s catalogue and once again proves that Inflo and Cleo Sol (as main contributors) are nearly untouchable in their prowess. Here’s to them maintaining their pattern of releases and 11 following in the not-to-distant future.” [Read the Full Review]

Editor’s Note: ‘Nine’ was intentionally available via streaming platforms for a limited time only following its release, but the album is no longer available to stream.
