The Pineapple Thief have shared their new single, ‘Driving Like Maniacs’, the latest track to be taken from their upcoming album Versions Of The Truth which is out on September 4 via Kscope.
The track itself is harmonious and affecting in its delivery yet despite its atmospheric bliss, tackles the heavy subject of loss and separation. The accompanying video is a melancholic yet beautifully visual piece of work and captures a personal and profound journey through the eyes of frontman Bruce Soord whilst weaving between performances by the band.
“The song has a very specific meaning to me, from a very specific event in my life. But I always give George (Laycock), who produces and directs all of our videos, total control over how he wants to adapt it for the big screen. The main shoot was shot along a coastal road on the Dorset Jurassic Coast, and I spent the sunset of an August evening driving up and down the coastal road in a car. It brought back vivid memories from my youth,” comments Soord.
