FWIW, on the latest Sound Opinions episode, Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot call the new album a "masterpiece" and "album of the year."

With DeRo on our side, how can we go wrong?

This is the message I get via SAULT chat. Anything you want me to ask them?
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 16 August 2020 15:55 (five years ago)
i believe it is a bot, as i received the same exact message.
the plot thickens.
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Sunday, 16 August 2020 16:42 (five years ago)
Have you replied to the message?
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 16 August 2020 17:00 (five years ago)
yes!
i said thank you for making awesome music and the response was, "how long have you been a fan?"
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Sunday, 16 August 2020 17:18 (five years ago)
At this point, I think I prefer the Cleo Sol album over the new SAULT.
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Sunday, 16 August 2020 18:52 (five years ago)
why would you say something so controversial, yet so brave?
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Sunday, 16 August 2020 20:17 (five years ago)
It's my year of living dangerously
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Sunday, 16 August 2020 22:00 (five years ago)
Well, yeah the Cleo Sol album is one of the best of the year. I think I'd agree with it being stronger than the Sault album, but it feels like an extension of the same sort of sound.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Thursday, 20 August 2020 22:34 (five years ago)
Absolutely does
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 20 August 2020 22:35 (five years ago)
i disagree, but they're both in my top five, so whatevs.

Would've thought it just meant "thanks" to supporters... but says "Pt. 2"!!!
― Soundslike, Sunday, 6 September 2020 21:20 (five years ago)
i have one thing and one thing only to say:
OH FUCK YEAH
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Sunday, 6 September 2020 21:46 (five years ago)
seems like a new record to me, they obviously like to crank it out
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Sunday, 6 September 2020 22:49 (five years ago)
so the end of the last record goes in a fairly gospel direction, not sure how much I want more if that is what the cover art is indicating
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Sunday, 6 September 2020 22:52 (five years ago)
clips posted to their instagram just now.
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Monday, 7 September 2020 14:24 (five years ago)
Previews sound great! Only one track seems gospel-influence from what I can tell. Groove-wise it sounded closer to 5 to me.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Monday, 7 September 2020 16:12 (five years ago)
I don't want to spoil it so just gave a few seconds' listen to each preview but this sound potentislly right up there with '5' and '7' (love 'Untitled' but just not quite as much). Inflo is Midas but with a happy ending.
― Soundslike, Tuesday, 8 September 2020 06:05 (five years ago)
Somehow I convinced myself this was coming today, got me through the week.
Anybody heard anything anywhere about it?
― Soundslike, Friday, 11 September 2020 19:04 (five years ago)

great news! what a review.
― Gerneten-flüken cake (jed_), Thursday, 17 September 2020 19:16 (five years ago)
Awesome. Still waiting on my delivery for the last one though!
― mmmm, Thursday, 17 September 2020 19:24 (five years ago)
Oh shit
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 17 September 2020 19:34 (five years ago)
"more obviously dancefloor-focused"
I like the sound of that
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 17 September 2020 19:38 (five years ago)
psyched

Still waiting on my delivery for the last one though!
mine arrived yesterday so hopefully en route.
― stirmonster, Thursday, 17 September 2020 19:45 (five years ago)
psyched for tomorrow.
― stirmonster, Thursday, 17 September 2020 19:47 (five years ago)
Indeed, I like the sound of this one.
― Gerneten-flüken cake (jed_), Thursday, 17 September 2020 20:05 (five years ago)
Got my CDs of '5,' '7,' and 'Untitled (Black Is),' but not LP of the latter. Seems like they're reaching folks in the U.S. now-ish.
― Soundslike, Thursday, 17 September 2020 20:25 (five years ago)
I would *love* for "18 September" to mean midnight, GMT, so I could get this in two hours...
― Soundslike, Thursday, 17 September 2020 21:02 (five years ago)
it’s on spotify here (australia)
― just sayin, Thursday, 17 September 2020 21:09 (five years ago)
Yeah, that's pretty much how new releases work globally, so you should look for it!
xp
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 17 September 2020 21:35 (five years ago)
I guess that's assuming you are on gmt time. It should be out by midnight on your local time zone.
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 17 September 2020 21:36 (five years ago)
Oh, sorry--I'm EST (US East Coast) so was hoping it'd be 12 midnight where Sault are based, and hence 7:00pm my time. I'll just have to wait till tomorrow ; )
― Soundslike, Thursday, 17 September 2020 22:02 (five years ago)
Also I'm looking to buy it--so I'd guess for me it's whenever Sault decide to put it up on Bandcamp : )
― Soundslike, Thursday, 17 September 2020 22:04 (five years ago)
Now?https://saultglobal.bandcamp.com/album/untitled-rise
― Jeff W, Thursday, 17 September 2020 23:42 (five years ago)
Now!
― stirmonster, Thursday, 17 September 2020 23:47 (five years ago)
Sooo fucking good
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 18 September 2020 00:07 (five years ago)
On first listen, yes indeed. Loving all the Batucada style drums.
― stirmonster, Friday, 18 September 2020 00:40 (five years ago)
Really like this. Suspect the more spoken word tracks like You Know It Ain't will pall a bit over time, but still, I love this band.
― Tsar Bombadil (James Morrison), Friday, 18 September 2020 01:38 (five years ago)
Definitely more of a disco thing going on here, I'm digging it.
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Friday, 18 September 2020 04:29 (five years ago)
Slaps so hard! This fuckin band
