Oh gawd. Seventh grade. I thought Pink Floyd were the hottest shit to ever record music. I wrote a letter to Roger and wrote an essay about Syd Barrett being my hero. I'm so glad those days are over.
Oh, cause yer in th grade now.


Anyways, Pink Floyd, yeah...

i love some pink floyd; i just don't lap up every piece of crap they've crapped out.

i remember a time when i used to make excuses for a momentary crap of gilmour being good just because it was by pink floyd...

There are times when Pink Floyd can be great (Animals, Piper), but then there are times when they can be absolute horseshit (Atom Heart Mother, all that post-Waters bullshit). Anyways, I've overplayed them so much, I literally can't see myself ever wanting to listen to them, ever again.

The middle three songs on AHM aren't that bad. The opening suite though...

I like the opening suite, and the three middle tracks. It's Alan's Psychedelic fucking Breakfast that ruins it.

I can't stand The Wall. It's boring, owerblown and pretentious (but not in an amusing/enjoyable way, like for example most of Yes' discography). I can listen to most of their pre-Wall stuff from time to time and I'm not sure if I want to hear any of the post-Wall albums in their entirety.

Dark Side and Piper are the only two albums I can fully stomach anymore, tbh. It's a shame, but I just overplayed them completely.

The Final Cut is brilliant. Definitely in my top five.

Eww, Final Cut.

Piper is fucking awesome and always will be. I probably listen to Syd's solo stuff more than I listen to Floyd now.

Piper is better than The Wall in my opinion. I think the Wall is low by Floyd standards, considering musical and lyrical greatness of Wish You Were Here and Animals and the genius of Syd Barrett (albeit a crazy genius). But for some reason, its the album everybuddy knows and loves. People constantly chanting "we don't need no education" at my school.

By the way, I never listen to any of the studio recordings of Saucerful of Secrets. They're god-awful quality. I only listen to the recordings from the Pompeii show (same with Echoes).
