    It is not a surprising album but it's quite solid. For a band that already has 20 years in the business and 11 studio albums it may be difficult to sound innovative or fresh but they have succeeded.

    Dissolution is the album The Pineapple Thief have been promising since 2012's All the Wars: it's poetic, erudite, emotionally powerful, and chock-full of musical imagination.

    It wouldn’t be a Pineapple Thief record if we weren’t served some moody tracks. There are less than usual (no complaints about that) and often spiced with louder sections throughout.

    Although Dissolution doesn't surpass the Pineapple Thief's greatest albums (or even consistently change things up), it does outdo its predecessor and offer devotees another idiosyncratic collection of rousing songwriting and remarkable instrumentation.
