Pink Floyd have revealed a 30-second excerpt from their forthcoming album The Endless River. Listen to it below.

The album, their fifteenth, will be the band's first new release in twenty years. Their fourteenth LP The Division Bell was released in 1994.

The 30-second clip features a prominent, wobbly guitar solo over a gentle drum beat and synth, and should give fans a tiny taste of what is to come.

In a statement, David Gilmour said: "The Endless River has as its starting point the music that came from the 1993 Division Bell sessions. We listened to over 30 hours of the three of us playing together and selected the music we wanted to work for the new album."

He continued: "Over the last year we've added new parts, re-recorded others and generally harnessed studio technology to make a 21st century Pink Floyd album. With Rick gone [Rick Wright, founding member who died in 2008], and with him the chance of ever doing it again, it feels right that these revisited and reworked tracks should be made available as part of our repertoire."

Pink Floyd's fifteenth album, The Endless River, is due for release on 10 November.
