Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats practically explodes with deep, primal and ecstatic soulfulness. You don't just listen to this record-you experience it. So it's fitting that the self-titled album will bear the iconic logo of Stax Records, because at certain moments Rateliff seems to be channeling soul greats like Otis Redding and Sam & Dave. But as this gifted multi-instrumentalist honors the legacy of the legendary Memphis label, he's also setting out into audacious new territory.
