About This Track

'Bow' by SAULT is an alternative track from the album 'Untitled (Black Is)', released in 2020. The lyrics repeatedly return to the image of bowing, then move into a roll call of African places, before turning to a comment on kinship, as in “Blood thicker than water”, and a plea for liberation. The tone is devotional but also urgent, with countries named in quick succession and a direct address that gathers into a clear political conscience.

"Bow" is a track by SAULT, from the album Untitled (Black Is), released 19th June 2020. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about SAULT.
