THE PINEAPPLE THIEF, 12th EP from the sessions of the previous album.

"All Because of Me" with an air, a voice, a percussive rhythm, an alternative rock tone and a catchy chorus followed by a solo by Bruce, simple, effective. "Last to Run" for the haunting ballad that will deviate into a progressive space as only the thief knows how to do; proven art-rock atmosphere and climate. "Election Day" solemn piano for the latent air then rock soul, heavy with the typical riff; a sound that surfs on Steven WILSON and RADIOHEAD, an aerial break, the guitar launches into space, Floydian with a beautiful velvety synth. "The World to Me" Gavin's hit and Steve's new-wave synth for the rock air where the final keyboard in the distance reassures on the progressive side. "No Friend of Mine" nervous riff, expressive XTC tinkering, between rock and new-wave, pop and art-rock, the conglomerate leading back to prog.

THE PINEAPPLE THIEF, melodic prog rock for 5 session songs, refined with a direct, powerful sound and smooth vocals. 'It Leads to This' was short, these songs give the introspective transition. (3.5).
