First there was the loss of original leader Syd Barrett to mental illness. Then Roger Waters, architect of the bandÆs greatest successes, exited after falling out with his colleagues. Now the remnants of the Floyd, guitarist David Gilmour and drummer Nick Mason, revive the band for their first album since 1994Æs The Division Bell in order to mark another loss. The Endless River commemorates keyboardist Rick Wright, who died in 2008. Its 18 tracks, all instrumentals bar one song, are adapted from unused music from The Division BellÆs recording sessions, with Gilmour and Mason laying down new parts and Roxy MusicÆs Phil Manzanera helping to reshape the material. It opens with an unidentified voice talking about the ôunspoken understandingö in the band but also admitting that ôwe shout and argue and fight like everyone elseö. What follows is a series of ambient instrumentals in the spirit of the bandÆs pre-Wall work, the shifting moods capturing the volatile dynamics of the bandÆs history. Some are fragmentary, their origins as studio sweepings audible, but others strike an authentically Floydian note, rising into full pomp-rock majesty or drifting off into graceful reverie. (The working title for the album was The Big Spliff.) Wright is present posthumously, his keyboards going from grandiose chords to jazzy fills. Meanwhile Gilmour is central to the action, his guitar-playing full of emotional intelligence, its tones alternately inquisitive, mournful, fierce and dreamlike, unfolding with a deep sense of space. ôItÆs louder than words, this thing that we do,ö he sings in the only song, the stately finale ôLouder Than Wordsö. The sentiment could be taken as an implied rebuke to Roger Waters, the bandÆs erstwhile chief wordsmith, who fired Wright as a full Floyd member in 1979. But I sense something else û an act of relinquishment, the final utterance from Pink Floyd in what Gilmour says will be their final album. How fitting that a band so accustomed to loss should close their account with an engrossing elegy to their own past. This NFO File was rendered by NFOmation.net
