New Pink Floyd Album "The Endless River"

Nobody is a bigger Floyd fan than me.  I'm 27 years old and have been an absolute PF fanatic since age 7.  But does anyone actually consider this a "new album?"  I mean come on...Dave's "On An Island" was closer to being a "NEW" Pink Floyd album than this will be.  This is just unreleased material from the Division Bell sessions...and that's what it should be labeled as.  Ok, from what I've read from reliable sources is that since 1994, Nick and Dave have gone in and worked on these tracks, which are almost all purely instrumental, and had a guest vocalist come in and lay down some stacked backing vocals, and Dave has even recorded some vocals himself.  But is that it?  Now it's a "new Pink Floyd record?"

 I personally find it rather insulting that they, or the record company, (I do not know who is responsible for marketing this as a "new Pink Floyd album", the band members or the record label), are trying to pass this off as "new material, a new Pink Floyd effort."  Not to mention Roger Waters will have absolutely nothing to do with any aspect of this recording, production, promotion or release.

  Dave is the only producer who has any history with the name Pink Floyd, Rick is dead and the only contribution he makes are parts he played more than TWENTY (20+) years ago while working on and writing for what became The Division Bell (which I think is a great album, whether you consider it a legit Pink Floyd album or not, it's a damn good piece of musical art). 

Am I wrong?  I will always love this band, no matter what.  But let's be real here...
Nonetheless, I am looking forward to hearing the music, hearing Dave and Rick and Nick playing together, and hearing Dave as a producer.  At the same time, I'm not expecting any spectacular or memorable guitar solos from Dave (ala Comfortably Numb) or any gorgeous, goosebump-inducing chord changes on the keys by Rick (ala Breathe, Great Gig in the Sky).  I just hope there will be some nice, colorful, soundscapes and moving pieces of music that will be somewhat memorable. 

This is being described as their "swan song" so I am sure Dave and Nick won't allow it to be released without their absolute confidence and approval that it's worth the money to spend on it (even though everyone is just going to download it from pirate bay or download the leak..I believe it's already leaked) and I'm sure it will be top quality production and have some high points and memorable moments, and hopefully an epic, tear-inducing ending that will make real Pink Floyd fans want to repay the album or go and put on Piper at the Gates of Dawn and listen to the entire Floyd
d discography from start to finish.  Or just get the listeners back into a Pink Floyd phase where they listen to nothing but Pink Floyd again, like they probably have gone through several times, depending on their age or how long they've been a fan.  And I'm sure it will be effective in doing just that.  And then everyone will go through the same thing all over again - begging and praying for a "reunion" and another album of REAL original material, or at least a reunion on stage between Roger and Dave, or maybe even for them to record a single together, or God forbid a full album.  But in reality, these guys are in their early 70's, late 60's now, they have more than enough money for a few more lifetimes and their families.  The chance that any of those things happen (I'll take a quote from one of my other heros Muhammad Ali) "are slim to none, and slim just left town."
