On An Iceland (Audio CD)

Customer Review

As a lover psychedelic Pink Floyd sounds, includes the acquisition of the new album: "On to Iceland" by David Gilmour for obvious chore. Especially a look at 10 unknown titles, 10 exciting surprises promised.
The Booklett presents itself in usual augenfälligem design but with an unusually simple elegance as well as ease.
Outside thoughtfully accompany any Opulent scenes, only a human being as a silhouette in the moon light, the view peaceful doves on their flight against the dark night sky.
Likewise, tidy and thoughtfully the interior.
Yellowed designed photo and drawing pages on which garnished with spartan scribed sketches, also the lyrics arrive unspectacular.
Indeed, even the long-awaited CD disc lost almost inconspicuous, by a simple foam rubber round held on the last page.
If the CD Once inserted, I feel taken with the first sonorous Sphärenklänge on time travel, the sound disorganized initially on high experimental level, as if they were unsure where to lead the journey. However, within the nearly four-minute overture, they finally find their destination in Gilmour's virtuoso hands, with his inimitable guitar vibrations tones are now on a clear direction.
He formed into hard turns melancholy that do not end up wanting to lose in time and space. It spreads an aura of melancholy farewell mood, as it was a matter of looking back at past times keep, as rousing bombast orgies knew the fans still inspire.
Not something that is missing in these new pieces of thoughtful professionalism. No, except for the first piece of sound recordings, the nine other skilfully harmonious, but presented with a Andächtigkeit, as if it were to consider the ephemeral life in the length, which is located Gilmour seemingly become aware in his wisdom fortgeschrittnen age.
Thus, with this exceptionally quiet and distinctive howl his guitar repeatedly called old items in memory, but are not effective as they hymns stormy departure, but as the solemn farewell a painful funeral ceremony.
Pink Floyd have actually written music history and provide the fans with such unspectacular slices opportunities to prepare for the inevitable parting of this music era and perhaps of his own life.
Conclusion: Not Everyone's / woman thing, but still worth hearing.
