The Pineapple Thief have released ‘Hold The Ashes’, the latest single from the progressive art-rockers, and their first release with InsideOutMusic.
The video for ‘Hold The Ashes’ was directed by long-time collaborator Jeremy George of Blacktide Productions, and it features the band performing the track at School Farm Studios in the UK.
As Bruce Soord explained: “One thing is certain, one day we’ll all be ashes. It’s the gift from the gods that comes to us all. For some reason, when writing this song, I couldn’t stop singing about ashes in the context of understanding what life is about. Writhing in constant conflict. Why? So take these ashes and scatter them far and wide. You know, make the most of it.”
‘Hold The Ashes’ is available to stream now, with the video below.
Founded in 1999 by Bruce Soord, the band has long been one of the genre’s most successful and accomplished outfits, releasing 16 studio albums and touring worldwide. The current line-up consists of Soord (vocals, guitars), Jon Sykes (bass), Steve Kitch (keyboards), and Gavin Harrison (drums).
With a new studio album recently recorded, The Pineapple Thief will be playing selected UK and European festival and headline appearances over the Summer, followed by a Stateside tour.
