Sum - Empty Spaces and Sorrow meets One of these Days... some cool Nick Mason moments, its the kind of drumming he really shied away from in later Floyd albums as they moved to a more radio friendly focus, and its great to hear it return. Gilmours slide part and Ricks playing are both very cool. Also another one of the longer songs at just under 5 minutes. Skins - Absolutely taking its cues from A Saucerful of Secrets (and possibly a bit of On The Run), listening to it I cant help but picture Nick Mason in the Live at Pompeii video. Absolutely love that Nick is doing stuff he hasnt done in years in these last two tracks! Unsung - A bit of a call back to Sum... a quick ambient piece with some nice guitar work. As he has tended to do over the last couple of decades (and multiple times on The Endless River as expected), David makes use of his Digitech Whammy for hitting those unusually high notes. Anisina - To put it bluntly, this is my least favorite song, has touches of Us and Them but comes off a little simple and easy listening at first. As the song progresses I think it gets better as the horns, backup singers and slide guitar kick in and provides that epic Us and Them vibe which really does help the song soar into more interesting territory... sadly, the intro and main piano part really do have a John Tesh sound, kind of something you might hear in relation to the Olympics and thats a bit hard to forget. With that said, even the least interesting track on this album manages to redeem itself in the end and Im cool with it.
