Whine about Pink Floyd stuff!; Hoo-rah

The Final Cut is good, The Wall is fairly lame, Animals is pretty good, Wish You Were Here was unimpressive, Darkside is overrated, OBC was stuff, Meddle was too short, AHM was lame-o, ASFOS is pretty good, Piper is good, UmmaGumma was stupid and annoying.


I'm not good at whining.

I disagree with probably around 90% of the posts so far in this thread. Let me just say the following:

Music From The Film More does not blow, in fact it owns. Same can be said about Atom Heart Mother and The Division Bell. The only Pink Floyd album that comes close to blowing is Animals, and The Wall is pretty mediocre also. Apart from that, all of their albums are in some way enjoyable. There are only three Pink Floyd songs that are, in my opinion, really worth whining about, and they are Sheep, Sorrow and Free Four.

Sheep is a great set of lyrics, which is ruined by Roger's unwillingness to allow David or Rick to contribute music, thereby resulting in what sounds like a ten-minute long drone.

Sorrow is boring throughout, except for the opening riff, which is pretty good. David Gilmour shouldn't write epics like that himself; that's something the entire band (or Roger by himself) should do.

Free Four is the same kind of thing as Sheep; horrible music which in no way complements the well thought-out lyrics Roger put to it.

Anyways, I love every other song Floyd ever made, and I can enjoy any of their albums if I'm in the right mood for it.

Make that 89%.
And I will wager that 61% of the forum will not post here and 73% will not post here more than once.

I was about to read it, then I saw it was Steve, and didn't bother because it was probably "blah blah More, Atom Heart Mother, The Division Bell and a bunch of other shitty mediocre albums own, I hate sheep, free four, sorrow etc etc *sucks Pink Floyd off*"

AHM is unbearable, only certain parts of it is good, but most of it? I would rather have someone eat my innards than listen to it. I don't think I'll get AMLOR because it's just David, with barely any Nick, boo. How sucky can ya get? And some people say AMLOR is AMAZING. lol

To actually get the idea that 1970 was Dave's peak in guitar playing just because of some slide guitar solos is idiotic. Amirite?

Well, let's face it, David's ass is so huge nowadays that it's hard to find space where his ass isn't.

HEY-O!
