Interest in Souled American has quietly resurfaced in recent years. In 2025, Omnivore Recordings released Rise Above It: A Souled American Anthology, earning a glowing review from Uncut that praised the band’s genre-defying approach. Earlier reissues and essays from artists like John Darnielle and David Lowery further cemented their reputation as a quiet but foundational influence.
