We got a full on Rick track and a track where Gilmy where Gilmy actually wrote a good song which went well with his riffs. I love this album

This is their second longest album and unlike the Wall, it doesn't nearly felt as long as it is. That's how great it is.

after countless listens i can definitely say there's some certified bangers in the album (this post war dream, your possible pasts, fletcher memorial home, title track, not now john, and two suns in the sunset). though i still think it's kinda flawed compared to their other albums, more specifically The Wall.

Vocal-wise? Musically Rick is all over this and never seems to upstage David’s guitars. It’s what they had over bands like Yes or Genesis where the dueling guitar-keyboard solos might go on a bit much. David and Rick were more like two good guitarists in the same band rather than most guitar-keyboard bands anyway.

to your credit, maybe i'm just blindly misattributing what each member brought to the table (i'd have to get back to you once i listen to Rick's solo stuff to know for sure), but this album's always promised me a mostly texture-driven take on the Floyd sound that i don't think we actually get, not all the way through anyway. these compositions are their most atmospheric since Wish You Were Here, for sure, but even songs like Marooned eventually devolve into the band performing a mere backing track to Dave's performance. i know it sounds insane to tell David Sodding Gilmour to tone it down, but i feel like whatever sound he was trying to get at here gels way more tastefully in On an Island.

The real failing of these records is that they never found a way back to just being a trio. David is a decent bass player and playing multiple instruments well into Rattle That Lock. The three of them with Guy Pratt just woodshedding stuff but that became impossible.

I understand that this album is not the best in the work of pink floyd, besides I am a big fan of Roger, but this album is good, perhaps because it was the first album that I listened to from pink floyd, and perhaps because it is really good and this is not a feeling of nostalgia. It upsets me that this album is more popular than Animals. Animals is a hundred times better than this album.

The disparate track lengths on that album naturally prohibit it from outpacing this, where the average length of the songs on this are around 5 minutes or at least far more radio friendly.

For a band that at one time practiced open isolation from it's audience, this record's central theme of communication feels as almost an open denouement of that and of particularly Roger's increasing need for control while also practicing his own open isolation from within the band leading eventually to his exodus. This album as a totality is not about him, or Syd, but of the reckoning the three remaining members particularly Gilmour, had to make now that they were living legends. After which, he called it a day on the band as an active entity. While not so shocking, the sad reality is that nobody would have blinked an eye if they kept on going through the 90's onwards. By not doing that it has enhanced the legend a bit, that they never got to the point that the records were of poor quality and that they didn’t need the success as the kind of crutch most of us would probably have done in their place from time to time.

Awesome! Yeah I really love the songwriting on this and the melodies are very beautiful. It truly feels like a goodbye album especially the last song on it.

I love it too, matter of fact, this is actually my 3rd favourite album after DSOTM and The Wall. This is the album that introduced me to Pink Floyd and Gilmour's amazing guitar solos. It has a special place in my heart.

Practically all Gilmour Floyd albums are too samey or just plain boring to me. Gilmour had talent but no real direction or emotional gravitas (compared to Roger) . I can appreciate the pristine production, the spacey vocals and the lush ambient instrumentation but an album that's 66 minutes of that is just too much, though I will admit that this was just as bad as Waters on his worst day (The Final Cut.) It's truly a shame they could never reconcile.

The Division Bell, the entire album is distinguished by being dense and with a peculiar power to ambientize those who stop to listen to it, manages to be melancholy without being corny; to be sad, without being depressed; dreamlike without being utopian and manages to be reflective without being suggestive. Among the tracks, "Poles Apart" is enigmatic, in addition to the brilliant lyrics about "Sid" and "Waters", a song, by the way underrated, that manages to be beautiful from the beginning, under Gilmour's strumming on the guitar and his voice of pillow, in the middle, in the second minute, with the weight of Wright's insane and contemplative interlude, until the dramatic and idiocratic end, typical of the Floyds. Missing Waters and his humanist lyrics? Yes, but Gilmour opted for musicality over political discourse. On the other hand, we could see how much Gilmour and the late Wright formed a unique symbiosis. Album note 10

It absolutely is, probably only behind Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, The Wall and maybe Animals.

Гениальный альбом, Явно не самый "проговый" у Пинк Флойд, но душевно самый близкий, каждая композиция отточена и выверена до блеска, вгоняет в какую-то меланхолию, особенно "Wearing the Inside Out", Поубавилось этой "амбициозности" Уотерса и его политических заскоков. Как композитор, он, конечно талантлив, но в качестве музыканта весьма посредственный, а говниться и к старости не перестал - чего стоит только эта смехотворная фраза из интервью что "как музыкант он в два раза лучше Райта и Гилмура вместе взятых". Человеку седьмой десяток, а он все не угомонится, то Трамп угнетает, то злые корпорации

Многие претенциозные особы берут либо первые два альбома, либо более "прогрессивные" альбомы с Уотерсом вроде WYWH и Темной стороны Луны, но забывают про два последних альбома с Гилмуром Даже моя страсть к прогрессивному року не позволяет сказать, что какой-либо другой альбом кроме Division Bell является моим любимым. Наверное, он настолько меланхоличный, что можно просто развалиться в кресле и слушать "Wearing the Inside Out" за чашкой чая Как музыкант, конечно, Гилмур сильнее. Социальная лирика Уотерса это интересно, но это не то, что я хочу слушать на постоянной основе, а его рефлексия на тему "злоеправительство" надоедает, даром что именно этим он в своих сольниках и занимается.

Unable to undestand why is it generally overpraised to the detriment of other albums from the classic era, which felt much more like a real band effort (see Animals, More, Ummagumma). Personally, not a fan of Gilmour's AOR-ish tendencies.

That's musically debatable, but the depth and touching emotions on Final Cut are something Division Bell cannot possibly top.

Basically the quintessential good-not-great album by an aging group. Very competent but quite listless somehow. High Hopes is the only really exceptional track here.
