Scissor Sisters should rot.

Tool have done covers of both Comfortably Numb and Wish You Were Here live, I believe.

They should, they have fuc[I]k[/I]ed it up beyond repair.

[QUOTE=Med57]I know they've covered Comfortably Numb, but I don't know about WYWH...with who Floyd influenced from current bands, I can't think of that many either. Tool, Dream Theater and Radiohead, to varying degrees are possible, because of some prog influences, as well as, in the case of Radiohead, the same "space" sound, but there's no-one who you can really look at as a modern day Pink Floyd in my opinion.[/QUOTE]

They are an Original. Like Syd.

Yeah, it's interesting. Some classic rock bands have been cloned to death (Zeppelin, anybody?) But no one has really been able to do the Pink Floyd sound.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]I don't listen to too much Tool, but I've been told they're pretty heavily influenced by Pink Floyd. Something about a certain part of The Grudge which is identical to a part of SOYCD.[/QUOTE]

The little keyboard thingy on SOYCD 1-5 at about 1:17 is what's at the end of The Grudge. I'd heard it on the Tool song first, so when I listened to SOYCD and recognized it I got all excited. :p

They've used other Pink Floyd "riffs" in their songs, but at the moment I can't remember where. Floyd was a huge influence to Tool. I guess they loved em.

I created a Syd Barrett thread.

I realize I've asked this before but does anyone know who did the cover of WYWH with the vocalist from Radiohead? I know he sings it, but it's not Radiohead doing the insturmentals. I'd say it's probably the best Floyd cover I've heard.

On a side note...*learns "Breathe in the Air"*

Hahaha. Syd Barrett was a funny guy.

Wow, I never realized how awesome your avatar is! What was the point of the thread though?

No clue, but Breathe is awesome. The chord progression is classic.

I love the slide too.

to discuss the greatness of syd barrett

Wouldn't that sound kind of crappy, if it was recorded over the phone?

Well, I know a lot of famous actors record animation voice-overs from their own home sometimes. I think if you get a dedicated line, without interference, it works well.

They did that in one of the Shrek movies. Two of the main actors (I forget who) were never in the same room together, yet they had plenty of conversations.

I guess. I dunno, phone lines always just seem staticy to me.

I have Wish You Were Here, The Wall, DSOTM, A Momentery Lapse of Reason, Meddle, Animals, The Division Bell, and A Sauceful of Secrets... Soo my question is which one should I get next? I was thinking A Piper at the Gates of Dawn, to hear more Syd Barret, but what is your guy's advice?

Why not, I'm sure you'll end up getting it eventually.

Yeah, I'd say go with PATGOD.

Congrats on the stars Deus.

PATGOD reminds me of The Doors.

[QUOTE=guitrguy]PATGOD reminds me of The Doors.[/QUOTE]
Some of the music does.....I guess.

[QUOTE=guitrguy]Congrats on the stars Deus.[/QUOTE]

Thank you very much. Whats the difference between having 3 and 4?

I can sort of see the Doors/PATGOD connection, but The Doors are much more keyboard heavy, if I remember PATGOD well.

I dont know what the difference between 3 and 4 is?

Thats why its reminds me of them, Its not the same but lyrically and somewhat musically they are similar.
You have 3 stars until you reach 1.5k posts.

Ahh... got it. Yeah, they are pretty similar.

Oh.

Yeah I'm still not sure about the relation between the Doors and PATGOD

Listen for yourself. (if you can)

[QUOTE=guitrguy]Listen for yourself. (if you can)[/QUOTE]
Of course I can. I some of the songs. Insteller Overdrive is in a class of it's own though.
