It took me a while to form an opinion on the new Pink Floyd, and then I figured even after all the albums of them that I have listened to. You must listen from beginning to end to really experience Pink Floyd.
This was one of there opening songs that really let me know that Pink Floyd was back. Such a simplistic beat with a laid back tempo with only 2-3 chord changes in the entire song, but uses the same instruments with a little musical engineering here and there. Still such a fresh breath of air though even after all these modern pop artists taking the scene.

What about you guys, does it still sound like the Pink Floyd we all know and love?

Honestly, I don't think it sounds like Pink Floyd. Everything after "The Final Cut" was David Gilmour. That's not to say it was bad, though. A lot of the people who gave this album mediocre reviews did so almost entirely because "This isn't the return to original Pink Floyd that we were expecting."
In other words, as a Pink Floyd album, it's kind of mediocre, but without comparing it to their original work, I think it's great.
