Initially a solo outlet for Bruce’s music the first album, Abducting the Unicorn, was released on Cyclops Records in May 1999. The critical plaudits and small but fanatical fan base that grew around the release was enough to convince Bruce that perhaps TPT was here to stay and he returned to the Dining Room studios to work on the second TPT album, 137.
Following the reaction to its release in the spring of 2002 and the growing demand from fans for live shows, Bruce felt the need to expand TPT to a full band. 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. Wayne and Matt have since left but Steve Kitch (who co-produced and mixed the albums since 10 Stories Down) joined to replace Matt and play the keyboards.
The third album, Variations On A Dream (2004) gave TPT a further boost, reaching out to yet more people all over the world. Three albums followed, 10 Stories Down (2005), Little Man (2006), and limited the run What We Have Sown (2007) which featured re-worked un-released tracks. This was to prove to be the last album released via Cyclops before the band signed to Kscope and released Tightly Unwound. This was followed by The Dawn Raids EPs and 3000 Days, a 2CD re-mixed and re-mastered collection of songs from their ten year history so far.
The band returned in May 2010 with their new album Someone Here Is Missing. This album marked a significant step forward in the maturity of the band’s song writing and earned the band critical acclaim. In April 2011 the Thief were privileged to be invited to cover Pink Floyd's 'Money' by Mojo magazine for their cover CD tribute to the Dark Side of the Moon.
The band will release a new studio album in September 2012.

Try As I Might
The Pineapple Thief Lyrics
And i
Don't want you looking in
Don't want you over here
Don't want you asking
What is wrong with me?
What is wrong?
And i
I've got this open wound
It's open for all of you
To come on in and tell me what is wrong.
So what is wrong?
With everything i ever did with you has blown to pieces
With everything and everyone we knew
And all i need is
To make a stand and try as i might.
I don't want you asking.
I don't want you asking me
What is wrong
And my
My head is caving in
The whole world is looking in
And telling me what is wrong
Well what is wrong with all of you?
Don't want you looking in.
Just what is wrong?
With everything i ever had with you
Has been torn to pieces
And everything and everyone we knew
Knows what we did
So i'll make a stand and try as i might
Give up on you.
Don't want you looking in
Don't want you over here
Don't want you asking
What is wrong with me?
What is wrong?
And i
I've got this open wound
It's open for all of you
So what is wrong?
With everything i ever did with you has blown to pieces
With everything and everyone we knew
And all i need is
To make a stand and try as i might.
I don't want you asking.
I don't want you asking me
What is wrong
And my
My head is caving in
The whole world is looking in
And telling me what is wrong
Well what is wrong with all of you?
Don't want you looking in.
Just what is wrong?
With everything i ever had with you
Has been torn to pieces
And everything and everyone we knew
Knows what we did
So i'll make a stand and try as i might
Give up on you.

Lyrics
And I don't want you looking in
Don't want you over here
Don't want you asking
What is wrong with me
What is wrong
And I
I've got this open wound
So put through all of you
To come on in and
Tell me what is wrong
So what is wrong?
With everything I ever did with you
Has blown to pieces
With everything and everyone we knew
And all I need is
To make a stand and try as I might
I don't want you asking
I don't want you asking me
What is wrong
And I
My head is caving in
The whole world is looking in
And telling me what is wrong
Well what is wrong
With all of you
Don't want you looking in
Just what is wrong
With everything I ever had with you
Has been torn to pieces
And everything and everyone we knew
Knows what we did
So I'll make a stand and try as I might
Give up on you
And everything I ever had with you
Has been torn to pieces
And everything and everyone we knew
Knows what we did
So I'll make a stand and try as I might
Give up on you

Gavin is so cool, he sounds a bit raw on this one. He has altered his tone a bit for this song as part his rhythmic design vision, but those gorgeous ghost notes and his hi-hat work are unmistakable. 🤘🏼
Borivoje Janačković
That snare... soooo goooood :D
Roxana Dumitrescu
This song has probably saved my soul - that's why I love music. Really amazing, this song conveys a message that is not very popular or easy to express, so it goes right where it should :)
Dantess26
Stunning track from TPT as always, loving the poppy-prog format. Beautiful.
Tom Galonska
Oh yeah, the hype is real! And i'm going to see them live next month... Awesome!!!!!!!!
