Household Objects (album)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Household Objects project was an attempt by the band Pink Floyd to create a whole album using only sounds from ordinary "household objects", such as stretched rubber bands, with no conventional instruments. At the time the band was still reeling from the outstanding success of their previous album, Dark Side of the Moon, and felt somewhat at a loss concerning where to proceed. The project was scrapped when the band started working on "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", which would become the main component of their next album, Wish You Were Here. Some relics of the project can be heard in the songs on Wish You Were Here, for example, water-filled wineglasses resonating in "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" and various sounds in "Welcome to the Machine".
No other recordings of Household Objects are known to exist.
