All in all, you’re just another brick in the wall…
No matter your musical taste or preference, chances are you have heard at least a morsel of the gargantuan concept album The Wall, the master work of progressive rock legends Pink Floyd. The iconic double LP stands as a monolith of rock music, and made one of the longest-lasting impressions in the genre. Whether reimagined by modern rock and metal bands such as Korn, or by country singer-songwriter Natalie Maines of The Chicks, or even punched up by dance pop icons Scissor Sisters, the album’s impact on music is incalculable.
Now, Riveting Music, the label of industrial zine Riveting News, is bringing some twenty-seven artists together to put an electronic twist on the legendary work, with a new compilation Tear Down the Walls: A Riveting Tribute to Pink Floyd. The 37-track offering is being released on December 18th, just in time for Christmas, in both digital and physical versions. In terms of the physical release, the first two discs contain the reworked album, with disc three titled Beyond The Wall, providing several new versions of tracks such as “Goodbye, Cruel World” and “Hey You,” among others.
