Their efforts on ‘Dissolution’ earned them their highest UK Top 40 album chart entry to date and also #1 in Rock and Metal, as well as reaching #22 in the German album chart, #4 in the Netherlands Platomania album chart and #14 in the Finland album chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe new material establishes The Pineapple Thief's intent to elevate themselves to new heights, with a desire to develop their songwriting and technical capabilities, and with artwork created by iconic design agency Stylorouge, whose previous work includes Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Blur and British film ‘Trainspotting’.

The second disc ‘Uncovering The Tracks’ features four new re-recordings of The Pineapple Thief tracks which represent their darker and heavier sound and songwriting direction over the past two studio albums with Gavin Harrison on drums. The set also features photography by Diana Seifert and re-imagined artwork based on the original by Stylorouge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Season of Mist - North America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53025788756265,"sku":"P-54437-","price":11.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/9219\/5113\/files\/The-Pineapple-Thief-Hold-Our-Fire-CD-54437-1-1684773411.jpg?v=1778039110"},{"product_id":"the-pineapple-thief-variations-on-a-dream-lp","title":"The Pineapple Thief - Variations On A Dream - LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eKscope present ‘Variations On A Dream’, the third album from The Pineapple Thief newly remixed by Bruce Soord \u0026amp; remastered by fellow bandmate Steve Kitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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 \u0026amp; consistently lauded recordings.
