First review as a staffer! I'll link a stream when it becomes available to the public.
Thanks Mongi, you should definitely give these guys a listen. I'd start with Variations on a Dream or Little Man. The debut Abducting The Unicorn is sweet too but hard to find.

Nice review, I expected it would be longer, but it's quite helpful as it is.You're off to a good start as a staff reviewer! I'm stunned by the two singles and can't wait to listen to the rest of it. First TPT album I truly enjoy.
You might want to correct ''alum'' with ''alumnus''.

I'll be a poor man's Adam Thomas in no time! No, it's just because I reviewed Magnolia back when it came out and it was hard to say much more here without just repeating what I said there.
I've heard people say alum a lot in life for some reason, but I guess alumnus is a more technical term so I'll probably change it.

Haven't been into these guys besides Little Man and Variations. Short and sweet review though.

"The Pineapple Thief step into the wilderness, and while not as adventurous as it could be, remains a captivating journey nonetheless."
This isn't a proper sentence. May I suggest:
"The Pineapple Thief step into the wilderness, and while the resulting album is not as adventurous as it could be, it is nonetheless a captivating journey."
Or simply:
"The Pineapple Thief step into the wilderness."

Nice short review, definitely makes me want to have a listen. Always found these a little boring but the single from this was great. Also Harrison (easily my favourite drummer, the guy can make beautiful sounds come from a kit) being this is bound to make things more interesting. looking forward to checking it out.

I thought Someone Here is Missing was a fantastic record but was disappointed by All the Wars and Magnolia. Sounds like this will be a turn for the better.

I found this superior to the previous two records SirArthur, which I also enjoyed, so hopefully you'll like it too. Someone Here is Missing is still their best in a while though imo

Not sure if I can be bothered with this, have a feeling it's not gonna be much more interesting than Magnolia... I'd say that Bruce Soord has burnt out as a songwriter but then his album with Jonas Renkse was some of the most interesting stuff he's ever done, if he only he'd continue down that route

The first two songs are around, people who like this band who're on the fence about this should jam them and see what you think.

I'm only on my first listen right now, but found a piece of interesting news: the limited special edition will feature a second disc that consists of a single 40-minute track exploring the "progressive and ambient side" of the band. https://vimeo.com/177555008

I've only on my third listen, but my first impressions are that most of this feels like run-of-the-mill acoustic ballads with some cheap builds and guitar solos taped on. "No Man's Land," for example, is an acoustic ballad for two minutes, then starts to steadily builds up to a climax, with all the instruments coming in for 10-30 seconds before the song just... cuts off. It's as if the band wants to be progressive, but doesn't know where to go. The album is also surprisingly light on hooks.
Darran Charles and Gavin Harrison did a great job, though.
(Edit) Because it wasn't mentioned in the review: Darran Charles (Godsticks) does the guitar solos in the album.

It's the first The Pineapple Thief album that I like from start to finish. It's not sth extraordinary, mostly run of the mill, but it's run of the mill done right. I guess 3.7 will be my rating, too.
