Pink Floyd’s ‘Endless River’ Sets New Record for Amazon Pre-orders

It's been 20 years since their last album, but Pink Floyd can still show their younger rivals how it's done.

According to the dailymail.co.uk, the band’s new release, not due out until Tuesday (November), has become the most pre-ordered album ever on the Amazon UK website.

The Endless River has already beaten boyband One Direction’s 2013 album Midnight Memories, although Amazon refused to say how many orders it has for commercial reasons.

The Endless River is an instrumental double album of 18 tracks and was created as a tribute to Rick Wright (who died from cancer aged 65 in 2008) using unreleased sessions he recorded in 1993 and 1994.

Here's one track off the album, Allons-y (1):
