Ambient Rock At Its Finest

Review Score: (10/10)
This is Pink Floyd's first Water-less release, and it's not bad as some Waters fanatics are trying to show it. This album has that indisputable Floydian charm that the previous PF releases had. This is even more melancholy, more spacey and emotional. Definitely better than "The Final Cut", it doesn't only compromise the three PF members, it has a whole army of musicians (about twenty!). What a difference from their previous albums!

One might wonders if that's any good, and without a doubt i can tell you it's not only good it's fantastic. Helped by the amazing production of Bob Ezrin, Gilmour, Mason and Wright made another great crowd - pleaser.

Maybe "AMLOR" has just a bit too much influence from the eighties than it should, but none the less, it gives this album a lot of charm, the way a PF could never sound with Waters. A lot of people didn't like that, but a don't give a damn about it. This was the album i played over and over for weeks when i first got it. Just listen to "Learning To Fly" (a true Pink Floyd anthem), "One Slip", "On The Turning Away", that has one of Gilmour's best guitar solos & "Terminal Frost", the best Floydian instrumental ever. Listening to "Yet Another Movie" & "Sorrow", the two best songs that have Gilmour's best lyrics will give you chills and i guarantee will make you love this masterpiece. Highly recommended!
