Roger Waters may not have made an album of new material between 1992 and 2017, but he was very active during that quarter-century. Is This the Life We Really Want?., his fourth song cycle, picks up on this thread, functioning as barbed protest music for the age of Brexit and Trump.

Rehjashed material, ddripping with ill conbsifdereded politics.
Loved PF and have all Waters releases. Am tiring of the rehashed leftist political distortion expressed. He TALKS about tearing down walls, but in fact BUILDS walls using an "us and them" mentality. It is merely cloaked in a "peace" veneer. Album borrows TOO heavily from "Final cut" and "Amused TD" ... Very disappointed - the monkey has had too much rope :( :(

Roger waters best!
Have Roger's other albums and IMO they can be patchy at times- but this album is certainly his very best- his brilliant thought provoking lyrics and variation in musical styles makes this a great listen- enjoy!

Great return from Roger Waters
This album is exactly what you would expect from Roger Waters in today's turmoil of a society. Great music, great lyrics, great price and great all round value!
