A particularly fashionable solo Gilmour with a hint of Eighties kitsch. A stretched sufficiency, but obviously far from what one would expect to hear from Pink Floyd. The least successful work of the band. For now.

"One Slip," "On The Turning Away," and "Sorrow" are saved.

Exactly. For now. Who knows what crap will come out soon.

For me, it doesn't even reach 3 stars, not even if stretched.

I basically agree with you, even though I've reevaluated it a bit in the last few months. Still, yes, we're at most three. I think what's coming out in about a month will have some nice surprises. The mere fact that it's 90% instrumental (they've never done anything like this, I mean an album that's almost entirely instrumental) deserves attention, in my opinion.

Not a great album obviously, but the grand solo at the end of On the Turning Away, after all these years, continues to be one of my unmissable Gilmour highlights. Just over two minutes of inspiration and guitar expressiveness at celestial levels. This proves that in any Pink Floyd album, even the worst, you can always find something memorable.

madcat, I don't know if you saw that they released 2 or 3 demos of 30 seconds of some tracks... they really don't tell me anything.

Yes, Frenky, I listened to them, I didn't tear my hair out either, but they are fragments, made to give you an idea of the sound of the album and that’s it. Maybe I’m wrong and it will be a disappointment eh (just a hunch, I don't think it will be), but I repeat, just for the uniqueness of the fact that it’s all instrumental, it has caught my attention.

We'll see... you don't know how much I hope you're right...
