Shelved Pink Floyd album project (with no musical instruments)


Recommended Posts

There have been legends about an album that the Floyd was developing after Dark Side of the Moon with a working title of Household Objects. It was supposed to be recorded with what its title says.

This article has an extended analysis of the brief initiative, including how Syd Barrett influenced it.  I wasn't aware of the project but this essay indicates Nick Mason addressed in his memoir. There's also citation of sound effects on other albums.

I seem that I recall some mention of it in a recording engineer-oriented mag back at the time.  The consensus was that, even though it started as some sort of high-minded "art" project,  in the end it was best to just leave it out in the wilderness to die.
