I got it when it was released and liked it more than the previous album. That said, I don't really see anything significant new added to this release (unless I am missing something) that would make me go out and buy it again.

Still haven't got around to buying the new versions of Dark Side/Wish You Were Here etc. My favourites of the original albums were always (perhaps bizarrely) Meddle and Animals. I still play Fearless quite regularly on the guitar partly to wind down from the idiocies of my work environment.

I think this is in reference to "The Endless River" - an uncompleted album of supposedly ambient pieces recorded in 1994, which has been finished by Gilmour and Mason and will be released later this year.

The collector's box of The Division Bell does baffle me a little. Although I don't hate it quite as much as a lot of people do, it really is an incredibly safe dad-rock album which I can't imagine would have had any attention at all had it been released by someone else. Are there really people who want a superultramegabox edition of it? I do enjoy High Hopes a lot, though.

That particular announcement passed me by. Sounds to me as though it would perhaps be better off without the additional vocals and guitar solos as that sounds like an attempt to play it safer. It'll be interesting to hear what it sounds like, but not an automatic purchase. My interest in Pink Floyd waxes and wanes.

i must have read like two sentences about it so my impression was that these are leftover tracks from the division bell which were largely complete but not entirely

mason and gilmour put the final touches on it and bam - the great big spliff has arrived!


i'm extremely pumped
NEW pink floyd! :D

Oh God, Alex Paterson minus Thomas Felman plus Dave Gilmour masturbating a guitar for an hour.

My hopes for The Endless River are slightly higher than they would be if it was just "a new album of songs" - certainly the fact that it was started as an experimental side project suggests that it could, potentially, be them attempting to do something a bit 'different' for the first time since Wish You Were Here. And Gilmour's last solo record was surprisingly reasonable, so there's potential. It's just difficult to imagine me properly liking a post-Waters Floyd album.

This will contain the last recordings by Richard Wright with the band. It wouldn't be honourable to just include them in the new deluxe Division Bell as "extras".., so it shall be completed, newly added upon, and released separately. Looking at it that way: that's really awesome and makes heaps of sense :)

Seriously one of those "never thought I see the day" things, greatly looking forward to it!
