THE FINAL CUT

Boring. That's the most accurate description of this one. Roger's lyrics are pretty good, sure, but there's no kind of musical value, just Roger giving a speech about our stupid leaders and their stupid wars and how they can affect our lives. My favourite is "The Fletcher Memorial Home" because it's the most resonant one thanks to it's strong lyrics. Others, such as "Not Now John" are boring. There's hardly anything interesting, just Roger talking (without any kind of melodies, not that Roger was John Lennon anyway), Dave putting up some generic solos, and a few changes between songs. That's all. A Waters solo album, actually. The lyrics are good, though. The music doesn't help the message at all.
