I really liked it. It was an extremely cohesive/pretty listen, one of my favorite Floyd records.

I don't think it's in any way bad, though just not evolved from Division Bell. It's not the most interesting album, either, and Floyd albums usually leave me in awe, while I found forgettable.

If Roger Waters was on board, we would have had reasons to except something out of the ordinary. As it is, I don't expect much (I'll get to listen to it properly before the weekend); a decent epilogue to a story finished decades ago, at best.

Just finished first listen. There were a couple of moments that struck me as sorta "Wish You Were Here-ish" but overall pretty forgettable. Of course, I am firmly in the Roger Waters camp and don't think they've done much great work since he left.

Is it solipsistic in here or is it just me?

Finally got around to this album and I rather enjoyed it. As a "Pink Floyd" album, it's alright. It doesn't really compare to their other stuff, really harkens back to Wish You Were Here at times, but comparing it to their other stuff, it's ok. As just an album by a band, it's a pretty good album. It's interesting more often than it's not, the guitar-playing is fantastic when it's strongly featured (duh, it's David Gilmour) and all in all it makes for a nice album. Nothing mind-blowing, but far from a disappointment.

This is a very divisive album, it seems. People really love of it, or they're very decidedly bored with it. Not much in the way of "this really sucks," or anything similar. I'll probably check it out in the next week or so.

I definitely feel like The Division Bell was the final chapter in the Pink Floyd legacy, and this is just an epilogue to it.


Probably the most accurate thing I have heard about it.

I've listened to it three times since my last post. Initial impression confirmed: where are my copies of "Wish you were here" and "Animals"? Ah, there they are...
