WHAT IT IS: Each of the album’s nine tracks retain familiar anthemic qualities that have propelled the band into one of electronic music’s biggest live juggernauts. From the offset, SOLACE proves to be RÜFÜS DU SOL’s darkest & most introspective work to date. After first listen, it comes as no surprise that this year alone, the band saw feature as the cover of September’s Mixmag issue, secured a yearlong global sync with Grey Goose, & reached a career milestone of over a quarter of a million tickets sold to date. “[RÜFÜS DU SOL] are about to hit a whole new level” – Pete Tong, BBC Radio 1
