Far and Wide

On their sixteenth studio album, Far And Wide, The Pineapple Thief sound more like a rock band than ever. The progressive edge is still there, along with that knack for spine-tingling atmosphere and a clear feel for the troubled world around us.

A decade and seven albums into Gavin Harrison's time on drums, this record captures the chemistry, road miles and bigger stages of recent years. You can hear that lived-in energy straight away.

From the moody pull of opener New World Order, these songs hit hard without losing the subtle turns and lighter touches. Far And Wide is an abstract set of reflections on the state of the world, grounded in shared human experience.
