Pineapple Thief: Little Man [Vinyl LP]

‘10 Stories Down’ is The Pineapple Thief’s fourth studio album, originally released in June 2005. The album was recorded across 2004 & 2005 with frontman Bruce Soord serving as producer. In 2023, it received a full remix & remaster treatment by Bruce Soord (mixing) & Steve Kitch (remastering). A blend of progressive rock with elements of Brit-pop, the album is often likened to the moody atmospherics of Radiohead or Muse. The album actually supersedes an earlier, limited "preview" release titled ‘12 Stories Down’ (2004), comprising rawer mixes & a few exclusive tracks. ‘10 Stories Down’ represents the definitive, polished version. ‘10 Stories Down’ stands as a defining early work for The Pineapple Thief. With its dreamy, melancholic textures & progressive compositions, it remains a fan-favourite & a landmark in the band’s evolution.

After a five-year break, ‘Magic 8 Ball’ marks Gazpacho’s return with eight new tracks built around the idea of fate. How it moves without warning & how the choices we make can slowly strip away who we thought we were. The album is structured as a series of short stories. Each song follows a different character at a breaking point. Moments where something changes permanently, whether they see it coming or not. Musically, the album stays true to Gazpacho’s core. Atmospheric, layered & emotional. But more focused. No unnecessary weight. Just eight stories told with clarity & tension. The album was mixed by Thomas Juth (a-ha/Elton John/Paul McCartney/Cat Stevens) & mastered by Hans Olsson at Svenska Grammofonstudion Mastering.
