Though not really enthusiastic about any of them

none are full-fledged Floyd albums, though at least TFC has an historical continuity (AMLOR being a solo album in a group disguise)

TFC by a mile out of these four, but it wouldn't rank against 70's Floyd stuff.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

The Division Bell is one of my favorite Floyd albums... the other three I like about the same, though for different reasons.

So far, the rows with Division Bell in 1st place are getting 11 votes, more than any of the others "row leaders". Also, the two individual rows with more votes have Bell in 2nd. And no row with Bell in last place has been voted until now.
Pretty good performance!

I used to loathe Lapse with some passion (a sentiment shared by my wife to the extent that the word "lapse" is still part of our toilet vocabulary), but I've since started enjoying the shamelessly 80s production quite a lot. At the same time I've become very bored with Bell. Nowadays the order is Lapse > River (a nice ambient album) > Bell > Cut.

I do love TFC, often preferring it to The Wall. Of the Waters-less albums Division Bell is definitely above average IMO, whilst MLR has two great songs - 'Sorrow' and 'Yet Another Movie' - two OK-ish songs - 'One Slip' and 'Learning to Fly' - with the rest sounding like filler. As for Endless River - it is a pleasant enough listen, but apart from the splendid 'Louder than Words' the rest is a bunch of stuff they never quite got round to finishing.
