[QUOTE=Gilmour]PF have gone through many changes. Just because The Division Bell isnt like The Wall it doesnt mean it isnt PF. Rick and Nick both contributed a lot more compared to earlier, so if anything that album has more of a right to be a PF than The Wall.[/QUOTE]

You know they have gone through more changes then a lot of bands. Whitch in a lot of ways makes listening to them very interesting.

Yea if i had to pick i would say the band was best with syd...thats what i like to listen to the most

guitarhero 24 02-24-2005 06:21 PM

lets say that syd never went crazy...then david gilmoure would never have been in pink floyd because they wouldnt have needed another guitarist.

Well, unless I'm worng because I read it on the internet and well I've been misslead before, they had done some jamming with Gilmour because he knew Syd, and Syd had plans to persue a solo career anyway, I think in the end we would have the same band.

[QUOTE=adhd boy]Okay while all that is very true. I Just like the Wall better then The Division Bell. Its just my opion. I do consider The Division Bell a great album, just prefer the wall[/QUOTE]

Just because you dont like the album as much, it doesnt mean it isnt the same band.

[QUOTE=Gilmour]Just because you dont like the album as much, it doesnt mean it isnt the same band.[/QUOTE]

Yea its almost like he said its just in his opinion. And if you listen to the band for the lyrics then it is not the same band.

If you want to look at it like that, then The Wall isnt PF. It is a Roger Waters solo album featuring Pink floyd.

I've made that comment before, and my post said that since one of the reasons he listens to the band is for the lyrics then the Wall is still Pink Floyd to him.

It is still stupid to say it isnt PF without Roger. I dont care about your "oh it is his opinion" arguement. They wrote lyrics before Roger took over, and they did it again without him. Saying the band isnt the band because he took over for 4 out of 14 albums(this doesnt even count most of the soundtracks) and left is just retarded.

Well actally saying its my opinion makes all the difference because it means hes entitled to that veiw point, he didn't try to pass his opnion off as fact as you made it seem.

Distant Echoes 02-24-2005 07:41 PM

Pink Floyd couldve exsisted without Roger, but he was a strong part of the band. Id preferably have him, but either way, their still the best.

Hey distant, did you write that Division Bell review on Sputnik?

pigonthewing82 02-24-2005 07:45 PM

Yea you know I guess arguments about the individual members of the band are pointless because they were all brillient in their own way. Sorry Gilmour for taking part in that pointless argument.

Distant Echoes 02-24-2005 07:50 PM

[QUOTE=Gilmour]Hey distant, did you write that Division Bell review on Sputnik?[/QUOTE]

i think i did with my last username. is something wrong with it?

its been a long time since ive listened to that album...and now since i know more about floyd, i could redo it more accurate, but i forgot my last usernames password...

I was gonna ask you to add in the tracklist + photo

Distant Echoes 02-24-2005 08:32 PM

Ill do that now, unless i do need my previous password. I put it up when before sputnik, so its a little outdated.

Rep + for you

pigonthewing82 02-24-2005 08:44 PM

You know what I found out today? Did you know Wish You Were Here got horrible reviews because they said they used too mucy synth? I think thats what made the album.

Distant Echoes 02-24-2005 08:45 PM

Sputnik must be acting up again. I remembered my password for the mighty zep, but when it redirects me, it ask me to log in again. Does the same for this username.

Probably should report it, but i got alot of feedback on that review. After reading it again, i think it sucks

Check the box that keeps you logged in. That might work.

u must be talking about rolling stones reviews. They had one on animals i saw too...terrible reviews. They said how floyd used to look to space as their solution to problems, and here they talk about drowning and similar stuff.

I ****ing hate rolling stones

Distant Echoes 02-24-2005 08:50 PM

[QUOTE=Gilmour]Check the box that keeps you logged in. That might work.[/QUOTE]

nah, still cant get it. Itll be fixed soon though im sure

does posting on sputnik add to your postcount here? Id find it odd if it did, but i was wondering

If i have off tomorrow, ill probably do another review, still dont know what yet, but another good album like Quadrophenia that i wouldnt believe has never been done before.....

DeusExMachina 02-24-2005 08:50 PM

Well, Rolling Stone magazine also said that Hendrix was a cheap, flashy guitarist widing on the psychedelic wave. Gave him absolutely awful reviews. And now they're saying he's the best guitarist ever. So, don't bother paying attention to RS.

Oh it was just on a site my friend was showing me I didn't know that was Rolling Stone......though I should have guessed. You know ever since I became a member here my hate for Rollling Stone has grown so much.

They also panned the blues Zeppelin did on LZ I and II, then panned Zep III and said they should go back to blues.

They just go with whatever is popular, they are the worst influence on people who listen to music of all time, and probally the cause for all those crappy mainstream bands.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]If you want to get passed blocked sites, go to [url]https://proxify.net[/url] and enter whatever site you want to go to through that. It works for my school.[/QUOTE]


Hey, thanks for that, Imma try it tomorrow. But our school probably blocked it already...haha. Anyways, the librarian monitors the computers throughout the school, so if I'm using that, that may not be too good. Well, thanks.

[QUOTE=Med57]Posting on sptunik doesn't add to your postcount here, no. And on the topic of Pink Floyd's early reviews, it's really weird how badly WYWH and Animals were recieved as far as I'm concerned. They seem to have been universally seen as a bit disappointing, even though now a lot of people, and especially Floyd fans, see them as the band's best work. The Wall got a rather mixed reception as well. What can we learn from this? Just ignore anything and everything The Rolling Stone says.[/QUOTE]

For the longest time Animals was my favorite cd. Now my favorite is divided into Meddle for its instrumentals, The Wall for lyrics, and Saucerful of Secrets for overall greatness.

Riva 02-25-2005 04:58 AM

Ignore Rolling Stone and Kerrang! I reckon.
