Putting out new material that still packs a punch after founding in 1999 is without doubt a challenging move. Although, to say you\u2019re releasing an eleventh studio album must be quite something for prog rockers The Pineapple Thief<\/b> as they release \u2018Your Wilderness\u2019<\/i>. Edging closer to being twenty years in the making, it\u2019s interesting to see how far they\u2019ve come since vocalist Bruce Soord founded this fruity name as a \u201cmusical outlet\u201d until 2002 when the band came together. Often thrown at the easy comparison to giants such as Radiohead and Muse, The Pineapple Thief<\/b> continue to forge their way to join that iconic list of names with their ongoing creative growth.<\/p>\n

\u2018In Exile\u2019<\/i> greets us with Soord\u2019s distinctive ethereal vocals and most notably the addition of Gavin Harrison\u2019s (The Porcupine Tree) drum work which creates a perfect blend alongside the intricately placed moments of lead guitar. In \u2018No Man\u2019s Land\u2019<\/i> it\u2019s easy to compare Soord\u2019s voice to Thom Yorke\u2019s. Voicing airy echoes, this atmospheric track draws on the wilderness indeed. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2018Tear You Up\u2019<\/i> opens with heavier influences, Harrison\u2019s nifty drumming being the key point, later growing in aggression with a crunching guitar accompaniment. \u2018That Shore\u2019<\/i> draws on electronic production elements and is tranquil but equally haunting. \u2018The Final Thing On Your Mind\u2019<\/i> nears ten minutes long and the instrumentation and vocals are breathtakingly layered and resonant, while \u2018Where We Stood\u2019<\/i> closes the record with the soft, melodic guitar work being the centrepiece.<\/p>\n

\u2018Your Wilderness\u2019<\/i> is a great reminder of their consistency of quality but willingness to experiment at the same time. A melancholy journey both lyrically and musically through a vast empty space which will either have you deep in thought or zoned out entirely. It\u2019ll be interesting to see where The Pineapple Thief<\/b> go from here after so long. There\u2019s definitely no signs of stopping!<\/p>\n
