The first vocal note of both sheep and pigs seems so important that part of me thinks they should have transposed one of em up or down. In fact they both do the half step down melody too. Maybe intentional

I wonder if I’m ancient enough to (really) like this(?) yet 🤔 or if I need to wait a few more years

Just the best Pink Floyd album.

My second favorite after WYWH :]

It’s their best. This shits all over WYWH sorry not sorry

Album Rating: 5.0

nah

Wywh would be nearly on par with this if they had cut Have A Cigar aka Pigs Three Different Ones but worse

Never heard this one

‘Wywh would be nearly on par with this if they had cut Have A Cigar aka Pigs Three Different Ones but worse’

Generations come, generations go, opinions change and some things remain exactly the same i.e Darkside has always been the best.

The Wall it is then

Album Rating: 4.0

I’d dark side is technically the best, but I’m more likely to casually spin Animals or WYWH

Album Rating: 5.0

Ha! IMO, while 'Dark Side...' is a technical masterpiece, for me it doesn't have the soul (and definitely doesn't have the emotional connection) of either this, WYWH, The Wall or even Meddle... It's probably an overall stronger whole than the latter, but it doesn't have anything to match its opener, or 'Echoes'.

Doesn’t have the soul?

Blimey.

Album Rating: 5.0

It has soul... just, not... *as much*.

Splitting hairs though... they're all kinda perfect.

"This but cut Welcome to the Machine and have Gilmey or Roj sing lead on HAC"
best hot take itt. Shine On is obviously GOATed, but otherwise WHYH got nothing on this

Album Rating: 4.5

The whole point of the record how madness and superficiality impacts the soul, diminishes it but doesn’t kill it because it’s always there on ‘the other side’ of the ongoing trials and tribulations.

This is conveyed with some of the most soulful rock compositions ever commited to tape.

I reckon dsotm is, in a really reductive way ofc, a bit more Gilmour's album, where this is a bit more Waters' and wywh is a happy medium (speaking re: their sensibilities as songwriters moreso than sonic presence I think?)
