The Division Bell is bland as fuck with weak song writing. Give me The Final Cut over that album any day.

The Division Bell has way more emotion and better instrumentation imo



Final Cut is just a rehash of The Wall with even more of Waters masturbating to himself

momentary lapse does

"The Division Bell has way more emotion"

You must be joking with this part. The Final Cut is objectively (yes that word is appropriate in this context) one of Floyd's most emotional albums.

"The Division Bell has way more emotion"



lol. the division bell is a hollow shell of what PF once was. the rest of the band couldn't summon up even HALF of the emotion Waters poured into TFC. I love PF immensely as a band, but to say that Waters wasn't the most important member is just wrong.

Album Rating: 4.5

It really depends on what's your perception of "emotion" which in this case it is subjective. If you consider Waters crying and complaining about life in an egocentric, exaggerated way, the yeah, it has more emotion



"momentary lapse does"



this tho

Well it's Waters pouring his soul out. Whether it's the kind of emotion you like to hear in music is indeed subjective, whether or not it's more centred on emotion than The Division Bell is not subjective.

Emotion is basically The Final Cut's thing. It's what the whole album is built on. Gilmour could never conjure up that kind of intense emotion in his song writing.

Album Rating: 4.5

Waters's definitely knew how to pour his emotion in here but in Final Cut it just feels fake and forced for me

Album Rating: 4.5

The Final Cut rules. It and WYWH are what I would call their "most emotional" albums

Well on here he doesn't really pour out his emotion, he hides behind a fictional story of sorts. On TFC he lays it out bear for all to see.

Laughing hard at this.



I agree with Ford in the part were he says that Waters was the most important PF member, probably he was, but I prefer a lot more Gilmour's approach to songwriting, and to add to the debate of emotion, I feel that the emotion Gilmour conveyed in his contributions to PF's sound were greater than the ones Waters provoked. It's a perception thing in my opinion.

Album Rating: 4.0

the subject matter in TFC and the contents themselves are so much more real than this album, it still blows my mind how many people can't get around that fact.

Album Rating: 4.5

I don't really find this album all that emotional at all. It doesn't move me. There's great songwriting here, but The Final Cut is far more powerful.
