The records

Newest first, each with the line its review opens on.

  1. 2014The Endless RiverTwenty year old offcuts assembled into an ambient farewell, with one lyric on it and that lyric is the weak part.
  2. 1994The Division BellA much better band record than the one before it, with Wright restored and one genuinely great closing track.
  3. 1987A Momentary Lapse of ReasonGilmour keeps the name, hires outside writers and delivers a very expensive eighties record with nothing to say.
  4. 1983The Final CutA Waters solo album with the band's name on the sleeve, and the bleakest forty six minutes in the catalogue.
  5. 1979The WallAn enormous, well built and genuinely oppressive double album that few people play twice in a month.
  6. 1977AnimalsThe angry one. Three long tracks that sort the country into dogs, pigs and sheep, and mean it.
  7. 1975Wish You Were HereA record about absence, made by men who could not stand being in the studio, and it is warmer than that sounds.
  8. 1973The Dark Side of the MoonForty three minutes on money, time, madness and death that plays like one continuous piece and never sags.
  9. 1972Obscured by CloudsA film score knocked out in two short sessions, and easily the most relaxed thing they ever released.
  10. 1971MeddleEchoes is where this band finally becomes itself, and the rest of the record earns its keep too.
  11. 1970Atom Heart MotherTwenty three minutes of brass and choir the band later called rubbish, and a side of leftovers to follow.
  12. 1968A Saucerful of SecretsA band losing its songwriter and covering the gap with texture. The title suite works, the rest wanders.
  13. 1967The Piper at the Gates of DawnSyd Barrett's album and nobody else's. English nursery rhyme wired to a very loud amplifier.
