The 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 & consistently lauded recordings. Founder Bruce Soord started The Pineapple Thief as an outlet for his music back in 1999 & has since released over 15 studio albums. ‘All The Wars’ saw frontman Bruce Soord mature as a songwriter & grow in confidence, allowing him the use of a 22-piece string section & a choir. Soord explains, "no expense has been spared regarding the production of this record but at its heart it’s still a rock record. It’s very heavy in parts & very delicate & beautiful in others." Following Storm Thorgerson's cover for ‘Someone Here Is Missing’, the artwork for this album features images created by the award-winning photographer Mark Mawson as part of his ‘Aqueous’ series, which was projected onto Buckingham Palace as the background to Paul McCartney's performance of ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ during the diamond jubilee celebrations. Kscope are now proud to present a newly remastered LP edition of ‘All The Wars’, the remastering comes courtesy of Bruce Soord himself.
