The division bell

"There is a vindictive, accusatory tone to songs such as "What Do You Want From Me" and "Poles Apart," and the overarching theme, from the album title to the graphics to the "I-you" pronouns in most of the lyrics, has to do with dichotomies and distinctions, with "I" always having the upper hand. Musically, Gilmour, Nick Mason, and Wright have largely turned the clock back to the pre-Dark Side of the Moon Floyd, with slow tempos, sustained keyboard chords, and guitar solos with a lot of echo".

"The Division Bell is Pink Floyd's latest hurrah to date, created with keyboard player Rick Wright back in the fold alongside mainstays David Gilmour and Nick Mason. Songs such as Coming Back To Life suggest new beginnings, but The Division Bell (...) actually sounds like an old-school Pink Floyd album. Its languid guitar solos hang in mid-air, and the whole thing moves at a glacial pace. So far, so Wish You Were Here. That said, there's more grit than you'd expect from a Roger Waters-less Floyd".
