Pink Floyd have confirmed that they'll release an album of new music later this year.

A statement from the band's camp says: "Pink Floyd can confirm that they are releasing a new album "The Endless River" in October 2014. It is an album of mainly ambient and instrumental music based on the 1993/4 Division Bell sessions which feature David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright. The album is produced by David Gilmour with Phil Manzanera, Youth and recording engineer Andy Jackson.  Work is still in progress, but more details to come at the end of the Summer."

The confirmation follows rumours sparked when David Gilmour's wife Polly posted the below Tweet on Saturday:
