[QUOTE=snorfledumpkin]I don't enjoy the trial too much, just because it creeps me out like no other, but i think the division bell is an extremely underrated album by many pink floyd fans, but it still gets the appreciation it deserves by some of them.[/QUOTE]

Division Bell is underrated. High Hopes is a wonderful track.

[QUOTE=magicbus]I love The Trial. It has the creepy vocals, which turn even creepier when the judge and "the wall' riff come in. What a great song.[/QUOTE]

123. Pink Floyd seemed to actually take the term "Rock Opera" literally with that song.

[QUOTE=ObscuredByClouds]best song by PF, dogs[/QUOTE]

There, I fixed it.

More is such a fantastic album, especially the first side of the tape (tape lol) with Cirrus Minor and Nile Song and Cymbaline and Up The Khyber. Great stuff.

moaner 06-21-2005 08:30 AM

I don't like "mother" at all. The wall for me is a very average album.

I also think sheep is easily the worst osng on animals, and don't get what people see in it.

My favourite floyd songs are probably pigs (3do), a saucerful of secrets, shine on (full song) and maybe echoes, i dunno. i haven't listened to echoes in a while.

I've always liked it, but then again, I was 6 when it came out

moaner 06-21-2005 01:17 PM

high hopes is a good song.

slowhand 06-21-2005 01:22 PM

Last night I heard [i]The Nile Song[/i] for the first time... that's an awesome song!

I also heard [i]Vegetable Man[/i] and [i]Take Thy Last Scream[/i], both awesome Syd songs.

[QUOTE=moaner.]high hopes is a good song.[/QUOTE]

The live version's good. I didn't like The Trial at all the first time I heard it, and I still don't really like it, but it's growing on me.

BlackHole 06-21-2005 05:49 PM

uh, whats this about needing a bassist? for a cover? of which song? i'm a bassist and i love floyd, i offer my, somewhat meager, services.

Be warned, though, my recording equipment is crap (basic computer mic, but i'll see what i can do).

Dont worry, i can take rejection well.

Riva 06-21-2005 06:05 PM

No, no. We need bassists like Munky_Magik needs a girlfriend. I'll be happy to sign you up in the official Pink Floyd record archives (if it actually existed). Seriously though, we're not sure which songs we are doing, but I'm going to be trying out vocals on Nile Song, Wish You Were Here, Goodbye Blue Sky, and maybe others later today.

BlackHole 06-21-2005 07:02 PM

uuh, cool? (im hoping you said im in, but this munky_magic fella could be a player for all i know...).

Anyways, yeah, a little warning about which songs would be great, gives me some time to brush up on the ol' floyd (not that I know of any huge rush or anything, but still...I'm guessing sooner's better than later)

ledpoisoning27 06-21-2005 07:33 PM

I got PATGOD, Meddle, WYWH, DSotM, Animals, and the Wall. What should the next album I get be. btw, how is the second album of Floyds, where Sid is on a few songs.

ledpoisoning27 06-21-2005 07:35 PM

[QUOTE=Lateralias]Division Bell is underrated. High Hopes is a wonderful track.[/QUOTE]
But its doesn't have their tone deaf bassist and singer in it. :upset:

RichardCranium 06-21-2005 08:02 PM

I heard pink floyd is getting back together?

Big-Bird 06-21-2005 08:05 PM

[QUOTE=RichardCranium]I heard pink floyd is getting back together?[/QUOTE]

Yes, for one night to play a 20 minute set. No tour.

Scoot 06-21-2005 08:09 PM

Floyd is awesome to relax to, especially Wish You Were Here.

Kingofdudes 06-21-2005 08:09 PM

Keep Talking is my favorite song on TDB. The lyrics may be meh, but the flow of the song is just so cool.

BludgeonySteve 06-21-2005 08:22 PM

[QUOTE=scoot_14]Floyd is awesome to relax to, especially Wish You Were Here.[/QUOTE]

Yes, Wish You Were Here is a good chilax album. Same with darkside. Not so much The Wall though.

lunch998 06-21-2005 08:25 PM

It's interesting that so many people relax to Dark Side of the Moon, when it's about a person going insane. The plot doesn't seem like something to relax to.

Flaminghotchino 06-21-2005 08:53 PM

man I just got animals yesterday.

Why Wasn't I informed about how awesome it is earlier?

I've known about pink floyd my whole life.. but didnt REALLY get into until about 3 or 4 years ago..

I'm kinda interested in their older stuff a little more.. anyone have an opinion on obscured by clouds, or Atom Heart Mother?

lunch998 06-21-2005 09:01 PM

Obscured By Clouds is great, I think. Very underrated. Atom Heart Mother is interesting to say the least, sometimes a bit too experimental, but still good.

Flaminghotchino 06-21-2005 09:04 PM

^ thank you.

[QUOTE=lunch998]It's interesting that so many people relax to Dark Side of the Moon, when it's about a person going insane. The plot doesn't seem like something to relax to.[/QUOTE]

Yes, while it is about insanity and has some pretty dark content, Floyd did all of this in a very soft, beautiful easy listening way ;)

lunch998 06-21-2005 09:36 PM

Once I fully understood the plot (some thanks to the lyrical analysis in this thread), I could never relax to it.

MalcolmYoungRock 06-22-2005 10:43 AM

Don't even listen to the words.

Listen to the composition and the music and it really helps you relax.

Animals is a great album.... Pink Floyd at their peak. Wish You Were Here, Animals and The Wall are the best Pink Floyd albums. :cool:

Flaminghotchino 06-22-2005 01:10 PM

Yeah Wish you were here is the first one I heard, and my personal favorite.

But PATGOD, DSoTM, and Animals are definately amazing..

The Wall is pretty good too. I'm just a little.. "used" to it..

[QUOTE=lunch998]Obscured By Clouds is great, I think. Very underrated. Atom Heart Mother is interesting to say the least, sometimes a bit too experimental, but still good.[/QUOTE]

Yea that sums it up. Atom Heart Mother is pretty good, but doesn't compare with any of their best stuff. And Keep Talking is my least favorite song on Pulse. I haven't heard the studio version though.
