Description

Roger Waters’ first solo studio album in 25 years, Is This The Life We Really Want? is a politically charged, sonically rich statement from the Pink Floyd co-founder. Produced by Nigel Godrich (Radiohead), the album strips back theatrical excess in favour of raw emotion, poetic lyricism, and atmospheric soundscapes. With themes ranging from drone warfare to media manipulation, Waters delivers a scathing critique of modern society — all wrapped in lush arrangements and analog warmth. Pressed on heavyweight vinyl and housed in a deluxe gatefold sleeve, this 2xLP edition is a must-have for fans of concept-driven rock.

Artist Overview

Roger Waters, the conceptual architect behind The Wall and Animals, returns with a solo work that echoes the urgency and introspection of his Pink Floyd legacy. With Godrich’s minimalist production and Waters’ unmistakable voice, this album bridges past and present with haunting clarity.
