Of the title track to the new album frontman Bruce Soord says” “This track probably doesn’t need too much in the way of explanation, I came up with the title when we started writing the record back in October 2018. At the time, the world around me seemed to be losing respect for ‘the truth’. Any version of the truth, it seemed, was fair game as long as it got you what or where you wanted. I never expected the song to be even more pertinent today.
“The video however tackles very personal distortions of life and truth. George Laycock, who produced and directed the video, found some beautiful locations down here on the Dorset Jurassic coast, together with some local ‘swimmers’. Luckily, as George lives just 40 minutes away from me, we were able to shoot together again, even in today's strange climate. The rivers, the blue seas and virgin blue skies unblemished by vapour trails look otherworldly. ‘It’s not how I remember it….’”

Totally the best sounding Hi-Hat ever recorded.
This band is a masterclass in songwriting. Everyone is absolutely on top of their game.
Every single layer is so perfect, minimal and enriching and suits the song so well.
Of course, Gavin's playing is as masterful as always, but Bruce's writing is so tasteful and purposeful, plus his production is off the charts as well. Crystal clear. Really excited for the album.
Anything Gavin is involved in is gonna be 🔥.
So true!
Yeah, but they were already on fire before Gavin. The whole band is amazing. It’s not a one man show (of the person who’s been in the band the least amount of time, especially).
🙄
@@stephantelm4922 you're clueless!!
As a PT - Fan like me, I can't ignore this great Band here. Just Wow 😮
Don't know what should I do first. Listen to vocals, drums, bass, beautiful marimba, guitars, piano and synths... or watch the perfect video... I am amazed and thrilled for rest of the album!!! 😁
Agreed. This song is so full of instrumental flavor.
I love that the past few videos have just had Bruce sitting somewhere, or walking somewhere. It's not a criticism, I just think it's a funny motif. "Alright guys, with this video, Bruce is going to.....walk that way."
Social distancing.
Best song of the year, by far.
This is what I called Music. Gavin is perfection.
How about Bruce? Jon?…
Transcends ordinary Prog-rock. Simultaneously spiritual and grounded. Rhythms and counter rhythms build through the narrative with expert execution. Once again, great stuff.
Dzięki Ci Panie że pozwoliłeś mi się urodzić w czasie kiedy ci faceci postanowili robić muzykę
The production on this song is amazing. Everything is clear, the mood seamlessly changes as the tempo shifts up and down. I love how the dissonance keeps you hanging for longer than you expect. It makes you hope for resolution and they do resolve into a fantastic jam, but make you work for it emotionally. Pure bliss to listen to.
The new songs are getting darker gradually.
What I like is that they're not all depressing sounding, even if the lyrical theme isn't positive per say.
Moreover, in my pov, lyrics are mostly based on terror management theory or nihilistic prospect.
Don't mind if they do. Darker and personal themes go nicely in prog bands like them (Gazpacho is another excellent example). At least that's what I think.
@Elijah Rosgard All to their own I guess. Something about their old stuff before Gavin came in just didn't grab my attention like their newer stuff. I think they just become more musically spacious and less heavy elements were used. I come from listening to metalcore and Dream Theater and such so I'm not alien to heavier stuff, but for me, their sound works better this way. As a fan from a beginning such as yourself, however, I can see how the change might be a bit disappointing or confusing though.
Ah.. this hi-hat is 😍
It's extra crispy. Vintage Zildjian Constantinople, 14 inches.
@Elijah Rosgard I guess he means the beginning of the first real "full sound" chorus? yeah - I say it was probably Vel 120... I really LIKE the idea, but I think it has been modified - maybe post-modified - I would have loved to hear that "live" played, which he certainly can do, though not with THAT dynamic different. But let's see what they make out of it LIVE.
The guitars on The Pineapple Thief's new songs have been amazing and Gavin's playing also seems quite different from their previous songs as if he's giving more space to other instruments and vocals to shine.
That's something Gavin did very often in Porcupine Tree. It's awesome to see he's still using space so creatively and considerately while making the most of it.
yeah but that sextolet is saucy !
His left footwork though
Bruce has such a haunting voice, perfect for this music. Love his guitar work too, full of nuances and beautiful effects!
Got my ticket for the May 17th show in Milwaukee!
Gavin absolutely killed it, i'm amazed of how far he can go with his creativity. Keep making music, art is truth
Gavin is the new Bill (Bruford) !!!
This is TPT, not the Gavin Harrison Band
@@stephantelm4922 sure, that is true...but just like PT, TPT were nowhere near this level without Gavin.
LYRICS
You caught me in the black light
There was no way out for us
I thought it'd be a matter of time
But you lost your head
I followed you, but you were out of sight
I did everything I could to get you back
Into my light
It's not how I remember it
You sold me out before I had time
To fight
Now it's not how I remember it
You cornered me
Knocked me out
If you follow me, then I'll be out of sight
If you follow me, then I'll be out of sight
I'll never be the one who comes and crawls
Back in your light
It's not how I remember it
You took control
And sold me out before I had time
You follow me, but I am out of sight
You follow me, but I am out of sight
I never wanted anyone else to fall
Into your light
It's not how I remember it
It's not how I remember it
It's not how I remember it
If I had known what it's all about
Someone told me to work it out
I live in this frequency
Frequency just for me
Just scattered voices
Not one that I can say
Is close enough for me to make it out
No words that I can care about
This is a world of silence
This is a world where you are safe
Yeah, I am lost in this frequency
It's a frequency just for me
I hear no voices
Not the ones that I betrayed
You follow me, but I am out of sight
Yeah, I'm out of sight
You follow me, but I am out of sight
Yeah, I'm out of sight
I never wanted anyone else to fall
Into my light
You caught me in the black light
There was one way out for you
I knocked you out
Is that how you remember it?
Fantastic!
They've really hit the spot with the last 2 albums and I'm glad they're continuing that sound into this one while still managing to expand it.
What a great piece of art. Not like any other piece they've done before. Mind Blown.
Love this song, a real piece of art
at 3:12 I got a feeling of "The Final Thing on my Mind". Awesome work as always. Can't wait!
guitar work is mindblowing
God that bass is tight.
Love this! You guys never dissapoint!
OMG I love Gavin's drum playing
🙄
The album of the year
...so, basically she is still in denial, even in old age. Great song.
Thanks for pointing it out
Please, explain to me , what's really going in this video ? I thought i got the idea, but now i see , i'm parallell with the meaning of this song !
Brilliant Video!
Gavin Harrison always gives satisfaction from his solos to Porcupine Tree to this, The Pineapple Thief! Ghost notes always get me.
I am here for Gavin Harrison...love him as much as Marco Minneman...both great both unique...love the song , love arytmic drumming ...
🙄
The cinematography of the video is mind blowing ❣️❣️❣️❣️
Quel régal pour les oreilles ! Le chant de Bruce Soord donne toujours des frissons et Gavin est comme d’habitude géant.
This album is already phenomenal
Gavin es el baterista que SIEMPRE hace TODO BIEN 👏🏼
Bruce cant do a thing wrong I guess and hope too. This is another amazing example of classic works and his legacy... way to go...
Unbelievable musicians, what a song
Already bought tickets and VIP passes for Stuttgart, 19 October 2021!!
Beautiful, beautiful song! The piano in the background at 4:10 reminds me of Max Payne's main theme somehow.
I wish this was 10 minutes longer
Absolutely !!!
they are perfect progressive rock band. hope they continue
Another masterpiece to keep sanity awake
Otra exquisita canción de esta gran banda donde lo simple y complejo conviven de manera natural!!
Probably the best video of theirs and the best album of 2020
Li seguo da qualche anno, si sente l'influenza dei Porcupine tree , ma sanno essere anche molto originali. Ottima musica
Who knew.. Away from Crewkerne in Coventry and I hear the pineapple 🍍 theif on BBC Coventry. Like it!
WOW! What a xp for me. Song of Time.
To me Bruce's past still haunts him in his mind . Very intense ! I can relate !!!
Give a chance to this group they're amazing, every song is a journey
Awesome!! Love your band!! Hopefully I'll get a chance to see you guys live here in the US after the virus has gone.
Me too! I've seen Gavin live with King Crimson, superb! The work with Porcupine Tree, extraordinary...
GH....best drummer on the planet.

Thank you so much for this! Can't wait for the album.. 💙💙💙
Man 4:07 is so cinematic! TPT has never sounded so grand! Gavin’s drum tone is GOLD! Top excitement for this album!
Goddammit this song is about as perfect as a song gets. And of course there was Gavin.
Excited! Already liked!
Hahahah same here
Great music and stunning pictures ... how can someone NOT like this?
Well this makes me extremely excited for the album. Absolutely love this!
Unreal lyrics
Bon sang ! Heaven & Hell ! What a gorgeous track... At once profound and spectacular, shadowy and brilliant, intimate and epic ! It's intense and captivating all along. With many subtle & intricate ideas and sounds never damaging this flow of moving and accessible music. And I love how the "marimbas" in the arrangements bring an unexpected kind of "Peter Gabriel's San Jacinto vibe" to some parts of the song... :)
Another fantastic track! I think this is my fave so far from the 3 that you released! Bravo!
what an awsome song
More like this!
Amazing song.

Amazing neo/post/wherever prog song. Kudos!
Cant wait for the Bristol gig
BIG TALENT.
I like this.
This is my favorite song of the entire year's releases. Is amazing, Gavin did an amazing job, and the rest of the band don't stand behind, is wonderful
Gavin assolutamente protagonista.......grande band.....
I actually liked the video straight away before the video started.
No doubt this band will never disappoint you!
Excellent music. Beautiful images. A stirring video.
MASTERPIECE.🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍
excellent
Very Very good! Musicianship has leveled up big time. But I must Say!! Gavin is in a league of special master
As always, Gavin's drumming is a pure joy and combined with other instruments it sounds just perfect.
There’s more to the band than Gavin
That's a cracking tune.
What a masterpiece! probably one of my favorites singles of this album. Can't wait for the whole thing
Wonderful Song!
Best song of the album for me! Total masterpiece!
what an incredible song. The song writing is masterfull. Im not even gonna start with the musicianship.
Perfect song.
Beautiful song 🎵 ❤ beautiful video! I can't wait for the New Album!!!!!!
The BEST !!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏
Good album!
So good
This video probably matches much more intimately with the lyrics and music than the previous two. At least, I feel there are more visuals that can enhance the lyrical content. The song itself is another masterpiece. I can't wait for this album next month!
Oh my word I didn't even realize September was next month... All this time it's felt like it's a couple months away for me. Lol, I guess I'm getting this and Niel Morse's new album early then :P
@@RyanxDunn Morse's album -- do you mean the Cover to Cover one with Portnoy and George, or is there another one I missed?
@@chetthehoss he's releasing one called Sola Grata on 11 September this year that sounds really good. It's a concept album on the life of Paul the Apostle and how he went from being a persecutor of Christians to being an apostle. The first single is "In the Name of the Lord". Check it out, it's really good.
I wish I could like this a million times
oh YES!
best album 2020
An absolutely awesome Band 👌 I love this band 👏👏👏
This song is a masterpiece !!!
Absolutely fantastic, what else can I say, tomorrow I'll get this new CD.....
Beautiful
Great song, great band
The production on this is just 👌.
This should be future
