Lyrics are great sure, but the music itself is very meh. The use of overstuffed musical and orchestra arangements is just one problem i have with it, another would be the fact that the band itself is very low in the mix, they lost a very important element in the music when they lost Richard Wright, his playing is sorely missed, and Gilmour and Mason are given little or nothing to do, and the vocals are just inferior to previous Floyd albums...I give Waters credit for trying something new, but the result was very disapointing.
Of course, thats just my opinion.
