Nowhere is this more prominent than in The Dark Side Of The Moon. Not only does it contain some of the most interesting and recognizable songs Pink Floyd ever released, but it is a concept album that takes a negative, almost cynical view of society. The instrumentations range from simple tape loops found in On The Run, to the complex synthesizers of Any Colour You Like. It still stands as one of the most memorable progressive rock albums of all time. The Dark Side Of The Moon is also diverse and unlike any other album you'll hear. It manages to evoke the emotions of everyday life from heartbeat to heartbeat without seeming over-dramatic. Take Us And Them as an example. It degrades war as pointless and does so while still being quiet and beautiful. The melodies are also instrumental (no pun intended) in making the listener feel the correct mood for the song. Rick Wright delivers his usual amazing skills at the synthesizer, and David Gilmour does some of his best guitar work I've ever heard. Each song on the album fades seemlessly into the next and almost seems like one complete song. The instrumentation is brilliant and catchy. For example, Money manages to make a rhythm simply out of the sound of coins, registers, and paper. The vocals ,both lead and harmony, are also outstanding. Each song feels like a separate adventure, and keeps you wondering what will fade in next. Beginning and ending with a faint heartbeat, the entire album is an outstanding symphony you'll never forget. Each time you listen to it, you are swept away into a hypnotic and soothing 42 minute medley by four of the greatest musicians that ever graced the music industry.The Beatles Abbey RoadThe Beatles Rubber Soul
