Like I said, not their best... But a few track are trippy enough to listen and relax with a nice chilled glass of apple cider ion a cold winter evening.

Thing is, they're getting old. And like a fine wine, they mellow with age. I would be pleasantly surprise if we get another "The Wall" or "Dark Side of the Moon" from them but I don't have too much hope.

I have nothing against mellow music, I have an issue with lifeless and bland music.

My expectation were lower than yours I guess.

Tbh I had no expectations. There were two or three tracks where things start to get good, but they ended as abruptly as they started. If it was a good album (by my definition, obviously) that didn't live up to their other works, I would regard it as such. But unfortunately, it's not.

But it's not even new music. It's outtakes from decades ago.

I must say, it's not as awful as The Division Bell.
