In the lead up to their extensive 2022 European and US tour in support of their latest studio album Versions Of The Truth, The Pineapple Thief present Give It Back, a new album featuring 10 new versions of earlier works including songs taken from the albums Little Man, All The Wars, Tightly Unwound and more. Frontman Bruce Soord's newly recorded vocals and guitars, new Gavin Harrison drum parts, new mixing by Soord and Harrison and mastering by Steve Kitch propel this new release into a must-have that showcases the evolution of The Pineapple Thief.

Harrison explains, "When I first started working with The Pineapple Thief, I had only played on the album "Your Wilderness", so when the time came to play live, I obviously had to approach quite a few songs I didn't know & hadn't played before. Having spent some years in King Crimson (where this challenge was often presented to me), Robert Fripp suggested that you should approach every song as if it were new regardless of when it was written. So, with the blessing of The Pineapple Thief, I developed my own take on some of the earlier material. As the tours went by, I got curious about their huge back catalogue & found myself listening through & applying the ‘old song/new song' process & imagining how I could (sometimes radically) rework them. Initially, just for the purposes of finding other songs to play live. However, Bruce encouraged me to go as far out as I wanted (including writing whole new sections) - after all, the original already existed - so why not breathe new life into these earlier songs? This isn't a compilation album or any kind of selected ‘best of' record - but rather the tunes that gave me inspiration to rearrange, rework, rewire."

The title track from the album is the first single of which Soord comments, "Gavin went through the entire back catalogue and picked out ‘Give it Back'. When I heard what Gavin was doing, it inspired me to completely re-record & re-work the entire piece, it feels like a completely new song & it's already part of our live set." Album artwork has been created by Carl Glover.
