David Gilmour and The Orb collaboration album due

Psych-prog icon and Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has teamed up with The Orb for a collaborative album.

The album will be entitled ‘Metallic Spheres’ and will be released in the first week of October. It will be available in 3D60 format, which uses 5.1 surround sound to make a 3D album! Does that sound cool or what?

The idea came about after the band and Gilmour worked together on a version of Graham Nash’s ‘Chicago’, which was produced by Youth.

‘Metallic Spheres’ also enlists the talents of Youth (Killing Joke, Crowded House, Paul McCartney).

The Orb are expected to announce a series of ‘Metallic Spheres’ laser light shows which will be in New York and Los Angeles.
