Snakes & Ladders, the new album from indie rap duo Armand Hammer, was written and recorded in the winter of 2025-'26. Perhaps reflective of our times, it's a project full of extremes and contradictions: intimacy, compassion, love, and conviction mingle with fear, anger, hopelessness, and violence. With Snakes & Ladders, ELUCID and billy woods delve into the knotty conundrums of our lives, in this country, in this world, and in this moment. Production credits go to Preservation, clipping, Animoss, Kenny Segal, Sebb Bash, Mekala Sessions, Child Actor, Saint Abdullah & Eomac, Theravada, Jeff Markey, Messiah Musik and Steel Tipped Dove.
