The Ladder

Marking a reunion with producer Bruce Fairbairn shortly before his death, 'The Ladder' sees the veteran progressive rock outfit attempting to recapture the lush, complex dynamics of their 1970s zenith while integrating modern pop sensibilities. The record heavily features world music instrumentation and sweeping synthesizer arrangements, functioning as both a nostalgic return to form and an exploration of new sonic textures.
