'Sunshine and Balance Beams', Pile's ninth album, is a Sisyphean parable concerned with labor and living. To write it, singer Rick Maguire inhabited 'a dark place', wrestling with the concept that there is no enlightenment, no end to suffering. Maguire explores workaholism, the myth of meritocracy, and acceptance of mortality - all through a devilish allegory of trudging through a shadowy forest towards the uncertain dream of a bright clearing.
