No it's not better than the wall. It's more consistent than the Wall. But there is no song that comes even close to being as good as comfortably numb or hey you.

Don't get me wrong. It's underrated. I would give it a 3.8 or something.

For me this comes across as a much more emtional album than The Wall and while I agree with RadicalEd that none of the songs on here come close to Comfortably Numb, this resonates with me much more as an album than The Wall does.

It doesn't suck, just doesn't warrant the praise it gets.

'For me this is comes across as a much more emtional album than The Wall and while I agree with RadicalEd that none of the songs on here come close to Comfortably Numb, this resonates with me much more as an album than The Wall does.'



pretty much agree with all of this. in order to enjoy either this or the wall (but moreso this), you have to come to terms to the fact that it's basically written as a roger waters solo album. whether you side w/ roger or w/ the rest of the band in their quarrels over the years, this is just where it brought them at this point.



the wall has roger's feeling in it, but it's like he's trying to tell about it through the life of a fictional rockstar. this album is written as if right from his heart. the anger, isolation and alienation found on the wall were direct effects partly of his father's death right after he was born, which is mainly what this deals w/ plus his resulting feelings of unavoidable doom also as a result of the war and it's perpetrators.



that's my 2 cents at least.

I gotta second that this is better than the wall. it has more emotion overall.

and the wall is great, but for the reasons I stated above, I find this to be a much more effective and heartfelt album

The Final Cut is definitely way more personal and heartfelt, but The Wall is meant to be a lot more paranoid and alien. Both albums work from those aspects, but I just find TFC to be REEEEAAAALLY boring.

so ive heard Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and The Wall.

Should I listen to this next or start from their first album?

Start with first album, then skip everything till meddle in my opinion, it's not worth it.

If More or Ummagumma were from any other band than pink floyd, people would never ever listen to them, and if they tried most of them would hate it.
