 A Very Good Floyd Disc
Submitted on: 2009-09-28 |

| PF fans are so funny; It's not PF w/o Roger, this one sucks, not a great album, etc. This disc is a good example. The songs are great, the playing solid, but a lot of negative reviews. JUST LISTEN TO THE MUSIC PEOPLE!!! If you want to get all wound up, become a Rush fan....... |

 The worst of Pink Floyd's works
Submitted on: 2009-08-01 |
|
This was a horendous album by Pink Floyd's standards.This was definately my least favorite album.Almost everyone thinks that A Momentary Lapse of Reason was worse that The Division Bell.What are you talking about????That being said I cannot give a Pink Floyd album less than three stars.That would be heresy!For I always find something I like about a Pink Floyd album.Keep Talking,in my opnion,was the only descent track on the album.The rest was just trash!!!!!Nick Mason and Richard Wright don't even get to do anything.Half the album used progamed drums.What's up with that man?Come on!!!!I know that for a fact because it even says so on the liner notes for Echoes:The Best of Pink Floyd!!!!!!
So, all in all buy The Wall,buy Dark Side,buy Meddle,buy any other Pink Floyd album.Just don't buy this one.It's a waste of time and money.I mean,I do recall hearing somthing about David Gilmour saying that this album was the best Pink Floyd album since Wish You Were Here?Sorry Dave,but you're way off in my oppinion.1st of all,The Wall was my #1 favorite Pink Floyd album ever!!!!!!!!!!You really just can't beat Roger's epic storyline song writing style!So even though this was a sort of Gilmour's The Wall,pardon me but it SUCKED BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!So again I say buy any other Pink Floyd album just pass up on The Division Bell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

 Not Pink Floyd Without Roger Waters
Submitted on: 2009-07-21 |

| Although much better than its predecessor, A Momentary Lapse of Reason, The Division Bell, like the previous release, is not a Pink Floyd Album really but a David Gilmour solo recording. Although Wright and Mason contribute on the tracks, the whole feel of the album is all Gilmour. His softsoken vocals combined with the ethereal blues guitar style we've come to cherish and admire, lacks any real resonance and feeling. What's missing, of course, is Roger Waters' dynamic vocals (and incredible bass lines of course)that lends itself so well to Gilmour's guitar magnificence. The album is pure parody of Pink Floyd in it's prime. While Gilmour himself has said that this is the best album by Pink Floyd since Wish You Were Here, it is nothing of the sort. His comment is clearly a crack at The Pink Floyd albums Animals, The Wall, and The Final Cut which were primarily Waters' driven projects. Give the album a careful listen to the lyrics and you will find that this new project is Gilmour's own "Wall" whereby many of the same themes of the original are revisited. Gilmour is definitely trying to outdo Waters but fails miserably. |

| Pink Floyd is one of the most musically talented groups to ever play. This album is a prime example of their superior talent. I love every song on the album. The album, recorded in exceptional audio quality is a must have for any pink floyd fan, any rock fan, any guitar enthusiast. The lyrics are also vastly more intriguing and thoughtful than nearly any other artist, especially today's modern music. Highly recommended. Worth $50. |

This album (cd) is a masterpiece. But, you have to look beyond the normal
debates to see and hear the truth. This collection of songs is always
mistakenly thought to be about Roger Waters. Although a couple of lines might in fact be about David and Rogers falling out, anyone who has suffered through a relationship with someone who is a narcissist and has a personality disorder knows these words ring clear and true. David was in the process of divorcing his wife, the mother of his children. He masterfully penned his feelings of despair and elation, triumph and tragedy. Listen again with new ears and understand, this is the very finest 'divorce' album ever written. The song 'Take it back' is obviously about his then girlfriend and future wife, Polly Samson. 'Coming Back To Life' and 'A Great Day For Freedom' are stories of rebirth after being strangled in an abusive relationship. By the way, David Gilmour is one of the greatest writer/singer/guitarist/musician's who has ever lived. Just listen. |
