Free Music Review: A GREAT Pnk FLyod Album
Hit: 4 Stars

If you just get over the fact that Roger was not there in 1994, you can relax and really appreciate this one. Certain cuts on this album are still on my active playlist. "High Hopes" is among the BEST songs ever on a Pink Floyd album, period. Listen to it a few times and you will be hooked. It's right up there with "Wish You Were Here" and "Welcome to the Machine". As a whole, "The Division Bell" is not equal to "Dark Side of the Moon" or "Wish You Were Here", but is excellent nonetheless - highly recommended!

The Division Bell Poster

As Roger Waters's solo career set into a sunset of suspiciously self-serving Wall revivals and compelling if modest-selling solo efforts, his former band became one of the few outfits in the soft live market of the 1990s to burnish its stadium-filling appeal. But their recorded output wasn't quite so rosy. As all post-Dark Side of the Moon albums must have a Big Important Theme, The Division Bell is vaguely about levels of separation (did you say, duh!?), with more than one not-so-opaque lyrical jab at the estranged Waters. But there's a sense that the band may have put more thought into its trademark audio gimmickry (well represented here by the actual sound of the earth's crust cracking--you don't get that on Rage Against the Machine albums!--and a "spoken" intro by Dr. Stephen Hawking, or rather his voice synthesizer) than it did into its songs this time around. The opening "Cluster One" has a hypnotic minimalist lure that dissolves all too quickly into the bluesy waffle of "What Do You Want From Me," while Floyd Mach III leader Dave Gilmour's usually lyrical guitar work is uninspired throughout, a definite Floydian slip. Still, the band maddeningly manages a few moments of the old grandeur here and there. The Division Bell is not a great Pink Floyd album, but an all-too-fallible simulation. --Jerry McCulley
