David Gilmour raises expectations for his new album with a sensational new claim

As a gamer who has been around for decades, I can confidently say that the anticipation for a new David Gilmour album is akin to waiting for the release of a highly-anticipated video game expansion pack. Every tidbit of information, every sneak peek, every snippet shared on social media sends our collective hearts racing with excitement.


Anticipation for a fresh David Gilmour album is always high, with fans and music experts eagerly waiting to listen to it. Previous hints from Gilmour suggest that this long-awaited album will soon be out. As the esteemed guitarist shares intriguing insights about his upcoming release, excitement among listeners is definitely growing.

As a music enthusiast who has been following this artist for years, I must say that the anticipation for his new album “Luck And Strange” has been building steadily since his last release, “Rattle And Lock”, all the way back in 2015. The wait has felt like an eternity, but the drip-feeding of new singles has kept my excitement alive. I vividly remember listening to “The Piper Calls” for the first time in April and being instantly captivated by its unique sound. Then, in July, the release of “Between Two Points” only served to heighten my anticipation for the full album. It’s been a long road, but September 6, 2024 can’t come soon enough!

As a dedicated fan, I can’t help but be thrilled by the tantalizing snippets of their upcoming album that echo the signature sounds of Gilmour. The anticipation is growing as we count down the days, and it seems Gilmour has been quite active on social media lately. He’s been drip-feeding us short previews and updates about more tracks from the highly anticipated new album.

David Gilmour reveals more of his new album

As a dedicated fan, I’d like to share a fascinating tidbit: one video finds me discussing the genesis of our title track, “Luck and Strange,” dating back a few years. Remarkably, the late, brilliant, and deeply missed Rick Wright graced it with his magic on electric piano. This short clip provides more insight and treats us to a brief snippet that sounds truly spectacular.

Gilmour additionally disclosed that the initial track, “Black Cat”, is instrument-only. He appreciates establishing the atmosphere of an album from the start and believes an instrumental does this exceptionally well. Without a doubt, he’s effectively setting the tone even before its release with these sneak peeks, though brief as they may be.

As a devoted fan, I can hardly contain my excitement as David Gilmour himself has raised the stakes even higher for his upcoming album. In an interview with Prog Magazine, he’s set the bar incredibly high by remarking that this new release marks over 50 years since the legendary “The Dark Side of the Moon”. Remarkably, he believes this latest work to be the best album he’s produced in all those years following the iconic 1973 release.

Gosh, it’s quite a statement! Let’s see if Roger Waters finds this remarkable. David Gilmour has contributed significantly to some outstanding albums throughout his career, such as the follow-up to Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, and The Wall. We’ll have to listen to the new album to determine its validity. Without a doubt, it will need to be exceptional to rival even a fraction of his best work.
