I'm probably going to be trying shrooms pretty soon. Also, next time I visit my friends in Seattle, I've got a good buddy who wants to do mescaline and go to a laser show with me. I'm not sure about that yet. I want to do a bit of research on mescaline first.Mescaline?!?! :eek:
I don't beleive it......it extremly rare and expensive. Not to mention mescaline is not really a northern drug. He may be talking about peyote or acid but mescaline? The chances of that are extremly slim. If he does seriously have it you're the luckist person in the world and will have an absoultly AMAZING trip. It's just as intense as acid......Do you mean LSD? Because, I mean, aren't you a tad bit worried about it. People like Brian Wilson went nuts from bad trips, didn't they? I know Shrooms can't hurt you to bad, but I wouldn't try the LSD...Yes LSD....:eek:
Nothing in the world could make me not want to try it. I'm sooooo ready for it. I've done the research, tripped on shrooms many times and I used to be afraid of it like you but I have overcome that fear. I can't wait to get it.
Excuse me for the drug talk.....:p

I'm not going to write a big review, but it's a good album. Instrumentally great, although somewhat lacking in the depth/lyrics department. More poppy than most Floyd stuff, but still definitely worthwhile, especially if you're really into Floyd.

Wow, I don't even know what Mescaline is... I think I'll just leave it at "Drugs are bad, M'ky"
Come to think of it, am I the only one in this thread who doesn't do drugs? Before coming to this site I was all like "oh my god, someone smoked weed, they're the devil." Now I sort of understand that its not all that bad.

I thought Mescaline was considerably weaker than LSD.
I don't do drugs either, and many (weed, acid, shrooms) really aren't that bad. In fact, even saying 'aren't that bad' is the wrong idea. They aren't bad, just dangerous if used wrong. BTW if I did do drugs it would be shrooms or acid, out in the wilderness somewhere.

There are so many insane myths about shrooms and acid that you really can't believe. I've heard some real whoppers. It CAN mess you up, but if you're careful and know what you're doing, the risk is as low or lower than plenty of other activities people often do.

Well, I'm a little lazy to search through the entire thread to see what's the topic at the moment, so I just decided to say that Fat Old Sun is my favorite Pink Floyd song. It's amazing how such a beautiful acoustic melody could have such a great distorted solo.
Yeah, Fat Old Sun is a great song, but Atom Heart Mother Suite still remains my favorite on that album.
hey is Pink Floyd really going to have another reunion on november?
hey is Pink Floyd really going to have another reunion on november?
No. They only plan to reunite for charity, never for personal gain. Gilmour even gave his portion of CD sales to charity after they had a huge wave of people buying their CD's after Live 8. If there's a benefit concert in November, maybe, but for the most part, no they will never tour.

The Live 8 dvd comes out on November 8th, that could be what you're thinking about.
Brain Damage
This line basically refers to the fact that the man, who is the focus of Dark Side Of The Moon, is remembering his childhood, and is possibly slipping into senility, or another kind of infantilism.
This one is more of a stab at the politicians. The lunatic is in the hall, the lunatics are in the hall refers to the Prime Minister, and his parliament. The newspaper prints their faces with sometimes deriding or critical headlines, hence lowering their self opinion. The paper boy bringing more could refer to the fact that the lunacy never ends, or that the public gets tired of the self-importance of these elected officials.
Basically, this stanza, and the very last one, both have the same message. If you realise the state of the world, and see the terrible situation that we are all in, then you can leave it to go to the Dark Side of the Moon, i.e. death. The dam is basically the all the terrible things in the world, and when you realise they are there, if you don’t have a loved one to lean on, i.e. drag you from depression, you will probably have morbid thoughts.
This line is perhaps one of the pivotal lines of DSotM. This basically refers to the fact that the subject of the album, our protagonist, is not actually insane. Or, in other words, he doesn’t believe he is sane, he believes that another influence (the outside world) is making him act strangely. The outside world, however, doesn’t care, so they simply cut and mould the person into a more “sane” human being.
Again, the realisation that society isn’t a pretty place drives you to the edge. If you have no one to talk to, and your expectations of the world don’t match reality, you might as well escape.
If anyone knows what the spoken part is, I will gladly review that. This is my personal opinion, so feel free to discuss any deviations from what the song is meant to mean...
Eclipse to come. :)
some of the things you said about the song i disagree,but who cares heres the spoken lines in the song
"I can't think of anything to say except...
I think it's marvellous! HaHaHa!"

Wouldn't it be awesome if they toured and gave all the proceeds to charity? Then I wouldn't feel bad shelling out whatever exorbant price good seats would cost.

I don't know. I always thought Gilmour had more range, but after hearing the scream in Careful With That Axe, Eugene I've kind of changed my mind. Of course I don't know if you factor screams like that in when your deciding how much range they have.
Gilmour's voice has also stayed pretty much the same and is still great, whereas Roger's voice is kind of shot. Not bad, but Roger's voice just isn't what it used to be.
Kingofdudes
10-10-2005, 05:11 PM
Thats an inward scream he does in Careful With That Axe, Eugene. It can be used to make very low/high pitches. But it can also damage your voice if you do it too often/wrong. I really wouldnt consider it part of his range, seeing that it is only useful when a scream is needed, and not regular singing.
Hmmm I think I am seeing a connection here

Waters sang as the judge, he just growled. I can emulate the same growl exactly, minus the accent, of course. :p
Waters has a good range, but Gilmour's is far better. And Gilmour has a far higher falsetto, whereas Water's only has that high pitched scream. That being said, I think Waters had the more emotional, cultured tone, and Gilmour had the smoother, melodic tone.
It would seem kind of weird when Pink Floyd performs the Wall for Rodger to be the judge. He's Pink throughout the whole thing and it would probably throw me off. On the Live in Berlin performance with all of those special guests, I think someone else sings it.

Rick Wright, the keyboardist. He has't technically been in the whole time b/c he got fired by Waters/left on own accord/was in Greece vacationing during a recording session (no one seems to actually know) but he was hired as a session musician for the Wall tour, and ended up being the only 'member' to make any money off it (the others went bankrupt because they spent their own money :lol: ) Gilmour re-memberized him when Waters left.

Well, in some of the other later shows on the Wall tour, he actually hired a bassist so he could dedicate himself to acting out the various characters.

Yes, at one point they were both in it.. Gilmour was there to replace Syd even at that point.
During the time, Syd would stop playing his guitar and singing on stage, so they had to do something.
Eventually they just dumped him.

How can people say the albums without Waters weren't very lyrically inclined.. They weren't as dark as the usual Floyd, but they were **** good.
Listen to Lost For Words, On The Turning Away, or Sorrow. Sorrow is.. Wow.
Now, I agree, these aren't like The Final Cut's lyrics, Green Is The Colour", "Childhoods End", etc. they are no where near as deep and dark, but they are good lyrics. Maybe that's why people dislike them.. Because it isn't as dark and deep, but wheter you like the new stuff or not, you have to admit that Gilmour did a fine job lyrically.. And the music. Wow. It's so complex.. Listen to Marooned.. Grammer for Instrumental Of The Year anyone? Sure!

It's about a rock star going insane. The WWII references are partly because it's part based on Roger Waters' life and his dad died in WWII, and partly because the character in the story turns into a fascist and invokes images of Hitler and Nazis.

Floyd is one of the few bands that I think hasn't really declined with age. Gilmour's just as good as ever, and Roger is probably more creative and ambitious than he's ever been, not sure on Wright, and Mason was never really that good to begin with (excluding a few early songs). If they made a new album, I think it would be really high quality, like on par with their stuff in their prime. But I don't believe the rumors. I'm not believing anything until one of the members says it's official.

I have seen him in a few interview's the way he goes about saying stuff and all he seem's to be a total nob.
I dont think he ever liked Syd. The way he was talking aobut him and all in teh VH1 legend's thing and all.

Meddle is definitely not one of the most underrated albums of all time. It's definitely one of the most underrated Pink Floyd albums....but saying "of all time" is very pompous.

I agree. Most of the people I know who are Floyd fans actually rate Meddle as very high. I'd say OBC, SFOS or More are the more underrated albums.

I'd say Relics is the most underrated Pink Floyd album, according to the people I know. No one's heard of that album, they've heard of all the others...but not Relics. The Nile Song is tight. We cover that so heavy :D

Now days it's easy to get albums by any artist, because of the Internet. Back when I first got into Pink Floyd, I was collecting all their records on vinyl. <---I can't spell that word. The Relics album was the hardest for me to get. I still have it, and all the other full length albums. Relics is my favorite Pink Floyd album.

Relics is more of a compilation. You see, the Nile Song was originally on More, and is covered quite well by Voivod, also.

Awhile back, someone (can't remember who) sent out the audio to LAP. Would anyone happen to have the audio from the acoustic David Gilmour DVD in mp3 format? I would give lots of e-sex for that.

Relics is a compilation, Jude. A lot of it is B-Sides and singles, but there are tracks from their early albums also. So if you have The Early Singles, PATGOD, SOS, and More, you already have relics.
Arnold Layne (Single)
Interstellar Overdrive (PATGOD)
See Emily Play (Single)
Remember A Day (Saucerful Of Secrets)
Paint Box (Single)
Julia Dream (Single)
Careful With That Axe, Eugene (Single)
Cirrus Minor (More)
The Nile Song (More)
Biding My Time (Single)

Yeah because Bike, and See Emily Play are on Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. I had a tape a long time ago called Works. It is also a compilation. It had One Of These Days, Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict, Arnold Layne, etc. It's so worn out, you can't see the titles to the songs anymore, it's just a blank tape. I can't remember where I got it.

See Emily Play isn't on PATGOD.
This "Works" sounds like a bootleg, heh. Still Ummagumma and Meddle would be an interesting combination.

The Works has a cartoon grey character on a scaffol painting ''WORKS'' on a wall. I still have it. I think my Dad bought it for me on my 13th birthday.
Yes, See Emily Play is on Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. Click below, go to Songlists and Lyrics and scroll all the way down at the bottom. :)

Edit: Pink Floyd was my life a while ago. If it wasn't for them, I'd be listening to garbage.
No, See Emily Play was a single released before Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. If it appears on PATGOD, it must be a re-release with bonus tracks.

That's strange, because I'm looking at my album right now and it's the last song on it. 1967. Oh well it's all good...get Works somehow. It's a cool compilation.

I dont think he ever liked Syd. The way he was talking aobut him and all in teh VH1 legend's thing and all.
He seems like a pretty nice guy seeing as what he writes in Inside Out, and funny at times. There's a place where he sais something about how hard the decision was of what to do with Syd and he sais something like: 'Syd was our guitarist and our singer, our frontman, but above all... he was our friend.' So I don't think he didn't like Syd.
The picture of Syd at Abbey Road during the recording of Wish You Were Here is depressing. He actually looked pretty good during the time he was in the band but on that picture he's fat and ugly and has this weird look in his eyes...
As for Relics, I see that all the times on Ebay, so I don't think it's that rare. Probably reissues tho, I'll buy one when I see a cheap one. :)

So I wish Syd would let someone from like BBC have an interview with him. It's hard to imagine that he is that mentally disturbed that he has to completely cut off any and all existence of his time with Pink Floyd. He was such an amazing song writer!

It's not. It's a solo track by Rick Wright. But, David Gilmour performs it with Rick Wright on his acoustic DVD.
I love Rick's solo work so much. It's somewhat scary. :)

How's about sending some out? I remember you sent out a couple tracks awhile ago (Mediterannean C, or something like that) but I lost a lot of my music awhile ago. If you can't, it's no big deal. But, if you can, that'd be pretty sweet.

frankly, yes, even though its one of the better songs on there.
It lacks any of the originality, the weirdness, the "progressive" nature of the earlier work which was what made it special. Ok, so the solo is fairly well written, but even that i find a tad repetitive compared to something like "any colour you like", "time", or "Echoes" (Solo 3, jam)
I just don't think the album was that special and i don't think if anyone else had written it it would've gotten anywhere.

10-20-2005, 02:58 PM
Not to argue, but the Time solo is alittle repetive.. (It's ****ing awsome, but it's just like.. 4th fret on the D string and different bends for the first part.)
