If you immerse yourself in it, its quite stirring.

Gilmour has always had a knack for chord changes and guitar melodies that hit you straight between the eyes.

Two instrumental interludes, Black Cat and Vita Brevis, keen and whine in ways words would fail.

As a Gilmour solo album, its heavier thematically than 2015sRattle That Lockand earthier than 2006sOn an Island.

Theres beauty gazing into the abyss and comfort in knowing its looking back.
