"This is a very important album for the band," says Steve Howe, Yes' longest serving member, master guitarist, and producer of Mirror to the Sky, the bands 23rd studio album. "We kept the continuity in the approach we established on The Quest, but we haven't repeated ourselves. That was the main thing. As Yes did in the seventies from one album to another, we're growing and moving forward. In later years, Yes often got going but then didn't do the next thing. This album is demonstrative of us growing, and building again." For Yes, that "next thing" is a collection of high energy, intricate, lush and layered new studio songs for an album which adds to the band's much heralded legacy, while charting a path to exciting future times ahead. Mirror To The Sky will be available as a Ltd Deluxe Electric Blue 2LP+2CD+Blu-ray Artbook with poster, as well as a Ltd Deluxe 2CD & Blu-ray Artbook, both of which feature the album in pristine 5.1, as well as Dolby Atmos, a first for any Yes album. Also included on the Blu-ray are high-resolution stereo & instrumental mixes. The album will also be available as a Ltd 2CD Digipak, Gatefold 180g 2LP & LP-booklet, Standard CD Jewelcase & as Digital Album. All featuring cover art by Roger Dean.
