CLASSIC 2006 ALBUM FROM THE PINEAPPLE THIEF 'LITTLE MAN', REMASTERED BY BRUCE SOORD RELEASED ON CD AT MID PRICE

Formed in 1999 by founder and chief songwriter Bruce Soord, The Pineapple Thief have continued to evolve and refine their sound ever since and they're seen by many as one of the most interesting and innovative rock bands the UK have produced in recent years.

Albums like 'Someone Here Is Missing' (2010) ('extremely classy and frequently mesmerising' Classic Rock); 'Show A Little Love' EP ('it is here that the real magic of a band like TPT shines through' Classic Rock Prog) and 'All The Wars' (2012) have made their reputation and fan base stronger, starting to gather interest from a wider spectrum of alternative rock followers only enhanced with the release in 2014 of their new album 'Magnolia' which was described by The Guardian as "The perfect blend of brains, brawn, beauty and exquisite songwriting...a modern rock masterpiece." Bruce Soord also collaborates with other Kscope artists, joining forces with Katatonia's Jonas Renkse on the 2013 Wisdom Of Crowds project and joining Katatonia on their 'Dethroned & Uncrowned' Unplugged acoustic European tour.

While the earlier releases along with 2008's 'Tightly Unwound', were many people's introduction to the band, they had actually spent the previous ten years quietly building up a dedicated fan base across the globe, selling over 25,000 records and nurturing their 'bittersweet' progressive sound.

'Little Man', the band's fifth album, was originally released in 2006.

The album has been re-mastered by The Pineapple Thief's Bruce Soord and is presented on CD in a digpack with a 4 page colour booklet as part of the Kscope mid price campaign. 'Little Man' is an astounding emotional, atmospheric and satisfying piece of art, and should be essential for any avid prog fan.

The Pineapple Thief are currently promoting their new studio album, the follow up to 2014's 'Magnolia' entitled 'Your Wilderness'.

The Pineapple Thief re-issued their 2006 album, ‘Someone Here is Missing’, newly remastered by Steve Kitch at Audiomaster, following their recent success with two studio albums featuring King Crimson drummer Gavin Harrison. August 2018's ‘Dissolution’ saw the band reach #1 in the UK Rock & Metal chart, #36 in the UK album chart, #22 in Germany, #4 in Platomania Netherlands and #14 in Finland's physical chart, and took them on two headline European tours including their biggest ever booking at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire. ‘Your Wilderness’, released in Summer 2016, achieved something of a breakthrough for the band before ‘Dissolution’, producing 4m+ album streams, a #7 in the UK Independent Charts and two extensive headline European tours culminating at London’s Islington Assembly Hall where the concert was recorded for the live release ‘Where We Stood’.

‘Little Man’ was the album that caught the attention of Steven Wilson and newly forming UK label Kscope, who later signed The Pineapple Thief to release their next album, ‘Tightly Unwound’. The music for ‘Little Man’ is marked by the icy, dark atmosphere created by a combination of keyboards, vibrato guitars, violin, Keith Harrison's percussion and lyrics covering themes of loss. The album also features the fan-favourite and current live track "Snowdrops".

Having recently toured North America for the first-time last year, The Pineapple Thief are currently in the studio working on the follow up to their 2018 record 'Dissolution'.
