Description
THE PINEAPPLE THIEF - HOW DID WE FIND OUR WAY: 1999 - 2006 - THE NEW 8-DISC DELUXE BOOK-SET AVAILABLE VIA KSCOPE.
"This box set covers the first 5 albums & all the associated bonus material from when I started The Pineapple Thief in 1999 through to 2006. Opening the old sessions was like opening a very large window into my former self. This box set has taken a strange emotional toll. Where did the drive, the dedication, the obsession come from? Did I take it too far? How on earth did my girlfriend stick around through it all to eventually become my wife? Opening up the sessions I could remember how I would spend hours experimenting. I was like a child, everything seemed to be a new discovery. So here it is. The first epoch of The Pineapple Thief." - Bruce Soord, 2022
Kscope are proud to present, the first in a series of deluxe book-sets cataloguing The Pineapple Thief's tremendous output. The first instalment focuses on the bands' humble beginnings with 'Abducting The Unicorn' in 1999 through to 'Little Man' in 2006.
The Pineapple Thief are one of the leading lights of Europe's experimental rock domain, led by post-progressive mastermind Bruce Soord, the band have built an incredibly loyal fanbase over the past 23 years through extensive touring & consistently lauded recordings. Founder Bruce Soord started The Pineapple Thief as an outlet for his music back in 1999 & has since released over 15 studio albums.
For 'How Did We Find Our Way', all albums were meticulously remastered by Bruce over a period of months using painstaking methods to salvage early material thought lost. The blu-ray comes with all albums in 5.1 & Stereo Surround quality for the first time which proved to be a huge undertaking for Bruce. In recalling the original stems to create new mixes, Bruce states "the Atmos mixes in this box set could be played in anything from a huge theatre with 100 speakers, in an enthusiasts home setup with perhaps 8 speakers through to something much more straightforward such as a soundbar or even streamed to headphones." - a spectacular audio treat for fans. At the centre of this package is a 64-page book featuring previously unseen, rare photographs from Bruce's personal archive along with superb liner notes from Anil Prasad & interviews with Bruce.
