The Pineapple Thief is the musical vision of Bruce Soord, formerly with Vulgar Unicorn. He started TPT as an outlet for his music back in 1999.
In the spring of 2002, after the third album, Variations on a Dream, which was probably the album that gave TPT the boost they needed, reaching out to yet more people all over the world, Bruce decided to form a band to take his music to the fans. The band consisted of his close musical friends - former university band mate Jon Sykes on bass, Wayne Higgins on guitars, Matt O'Leary on keyboards and Keith Harrison on drums. Matt has since left but Steve Kitch (who co-produced and mixed the fourth album 10 Stories Down) has since joined to play keyboards. Wayne Higgins left the band in March 2008, but the group continues as a four-piece live act.
The first six albums were released on Cyclops records. In late 2007, the band were signed to Kscope Records who would later re-release their older albums.

The record took shape slowly but surely as the band meticulously perfected their sound. Often guarded, ‘It Leads To This’ keeps its ace in the pack up its sleeve, biding its time until all the right pieces fall in place, giving way to a beautiful, cinematic experience on every track. Conceptually the record is Soord’s efforts to better understand himself &amp; the world around him. Opening with the coy melodies of ‘Put It Right’ before moving into the metallic groove of ‘Rubicon’, the album builds to the heart of the record with the epic title track, the cathartic ‘The Frost’, followed by an introspective ‘All That’s Left’. The ominous ‘Now It’s Yours’ and ‘Every Trace Of Us’ keep the foreboding atmosphere topped up whilst delivering The Pineapple Thief’s signature dynamism, closing the record with the haunting ‘To Forget’. One of the leading lights in Europe’s experimental rock domain, The Pineapple Thief were formed in 1999 by founder and chief songwriter Bruce Soord. ‘It Leads To This’ is their 14th studio album. The line-up has remained solid since 2016’s game-changing ‘Your Wilderness’: Bruce Soord (guitar/vocals), Jon Sykes (bass/backing vocals), Gavin Harrison (drums/percussion) and Steve Kitch (keyboards). ‘Your Wilderness’ made the UK Album Chart Top 75 with 2018 follow-up ‘Dissolution’ peaking at #36, alongside #1 UK Rock &amp; Metal, #22 German album chart &amp; #4 Netherlands Platomania album chart. Whilst not only a phenomenal musician but Bruce has also been instrumental in many stereo &amp; immersive remixes of albums, being at the technological forefront &amp; a ‘go to’ guy for 5.1 Surround &amp; Dolby Atmos mixing. The Pineapple Thief previously released their early years collection ‘How Did We Find Our Way 1999 – 2006’ in 2023 with Bruce Soord also releasing his third solo album ‘Luminescence’ to critical acclaim, supported on the road in autumn 2023.
