Since when did The Pineapple Thief begin compromising with their songwriting capabilities? It works well when the riffs and melodies are interesting, but for what it's worth, they're not. Even the catchiness sounds kind of stale from a band
that are renowned for powerful chorus'. However, there is a silver lining and that silver lining has the name of 'Reaching Out'. It may not soar in the same way as 'So We Row', but it does have all the elements that make any TPT song great.
Emotional and beautiful vocals, brooding atmosphere and a fitting guitar solo in the middle. Easily one of their best songs, which can't be said for the other 8, sadly.
