These are raw first listen thoughts! I imagine some albums will grow/sour on me in the future as I relisten.

it’s true when you go back to it and read about the band the context makes sense and starts for better or worse influence how u perceive some albums n how they come out, etc

im not sure what gilmours guitar parts are but it kinda feels like he just pops in for the occasional solo. all the acoustic is waters

im on When the Tigers Broke Free rn which Gilmour is on but idk what hes doing. gotta be some tiny part hardly even noticeable. weird song. i dont know whose idea it was to put that on the greatest hits comp

hint: 🗿

oh wait wtf, that song isnt even on the original album. it was just on the wall movie soundtrack and they just stuck it in the middle of Final Cut reissues

“they”

king

you can hate on him all you want but you know hes still a genius for the earlier stuff and his scream alone tbh

that gif

nah hate is a strong word im just being a goof about it

i respect the dude

imagine naming a song The Fletcher Memorial Home

and then drop it as a single w video

"boom boom bang bang lie down youre dead" - roger waters

dam.

followed by a good guitar solo tho

it’s almost a gimmick on this album

“gilmour come do your thing for a second to make this listenable”

nah i think its still a pretty good album tbh

even though it mostly just sounds like the quieter songs on the wall

oh boy this doesn’t excite me at all to go back to it

yeah you are going to absolutely hate it, thats what ive been thinking the whole time.

I'm actually angry about the weird female backing vocals on Not Now John (the song with gilmour vocals) because the rest is actually pretty nice. and for once you can actually notice gilmour guitar throughout the whole song and not just an ending solo.

but the backing vocals come in and really annoy me smh. doesnt fit at all

lmao im sorry i made u carry that thot all along

i agree actually i overheard that song while watching some videos the other day and it sounded good but i couldn’t be fooled, it’s the “single” effort you know the album ain’t like that, but i recall david gilmour sounding angry on it which was interesting for a change, didn’t recall the female vocals tho but id have to listen to it on its own and full

did you know that b****fork gave it a 9/10 in a review once? weird
