THE_James_Champ Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Summing up every Pink Floyd fan's opinion when I say I do not expect much from this album. That is not my opinion, please remove me from your list of people who you think will say that. I'll file the proper paperwork after the holiday. I'm excited to hear this, specifically because of the era it was recorded in. It's been said to be Rick Wright's swan song. stl_ben, patreeeek and valve 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll file the proper paperwork after the holiday. So be it. My lawyers will arrange a meeting with your lawyers. I'm excited to hear this, specifically because of the era it was recorded in. It's been said to be Rick Wright's swan song. After reading that it's a mostly instrumental/ambient album, I feel quite ridiculous. I had been under the impression that it would be outtakes from The Division Bell. Attach the stone of shame! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No stone for you, this evening. As far as we've been told, the majority was recorded during the division bell sessions, but recently some additional vocals were recorded.

KnowNothing Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'll be picking it up. I don't really look at it as a new album, per say. More like a compliment to the Division Bell, which is more than cool by me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpazzyMcGee Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I always liked their instumental stuff a bit more so I'll probably be picking this up. The Division Bell is my best sounding record so I've got high hopes for this one (although expensive as stated before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scruffy...the janitor Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 No Roger Waters = Not Pink Floyd *Though I'll probably still pick it up because of it being instrumental-ish. emokid9963 and darkforest71 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I picture this album sounding a bit like this, but just with more finger bends, clean guitar tones and ebow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albert Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Summing up every Pink Floyd fan's opinion when I say I do not expect much from this album. I dont agree. I think it could be pretty good. My only concern is recording without Wright. stl_ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I dont agree. I think it could be pretty good. My only concern is recording without Wright. The sessions were recorded with Wright, during the Division Bell years. They are hailing this as his swan song. patreeeek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fernando87 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Im a big Pink Floyd fan and im gonna listen due respect but without Roger Waters is simply not good enough emokid9963 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Jeez, people. Waters hasn't been in the band since the 80's. The end. TheEnigmyst, niblips, tape and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack8urt0n Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Jeez, people. Waters hasn't been in the band since the 80's. The end. I realize you're being on the nose, but to many of us, that is the departure point. Floyd is my all my time favorite anything. The albums they made post-Waters although technically called Floyd, just didn't hit the mark (IMO). Most of the skepticism in this thread seems to be coming from fans who don't hold those post-Waters record in high enough regard to give this release any hype whatsoever. Perhaps there is an attached stigma to still calling it Floyd? Waters went on to make albums post-Floyd, but by releasing them under his own name, he was able to make a creative shift without the expectation of being labeled a Floyd album. Regardless, I still think we will all give it a fair shake before completely dismissing it. emokid9963 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, I still think we will all give it a fair shake before completely dismissing it. I get that, I really do. But Momentary Lapse of Reason/The Division Bell still rank fairly high for me. The very same can be said for Waters' solo albums. Regardless, I think this will be a wonderful album, and I can't wait to hear it. patreeeek and Sandmankev 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
