Although it was obvious that Syd Barrett would not be returning to the band, it was less obvious exactly what direction they were headed as a band.

The uncertainty led to a new form that was basic to the musical ideas of the remaining four members, leaving them all to be as experimental as they wished while also maintaining a sense of inevitability about it all. The songs were truly strange, but they were also intriguing, and the audience held on.
