This was the last great album by Pink Floyd, and any fan of the band should own a copy , as it displays the band's most remarkable album, and one that contains all the hallmarks that made them great; ethereal, haunting at times, uplifting at others music, lyrical genius, and instrumental work, particularly from Dave Gilmour, that makes the ideas reality.

I love the people who hate on this album and try to be special snowflakes, like are you kidding me?
Finally, after about a 2 months, I've continued on my adventure through Pink Floyd's discography. I'm not sure why I initially stopped at this record, it may have been because the length and subject matter seemed to be a bit intimidating to me. I am very glad that I finally made it around to this record, as it's actually significantly better and well thought through than I thought it was going to be. This also means that I've just got 4 more records in order to complete Pink Floyd's ... read more
"You just don't get how deep The Wall is. It's like, there's this wall around him, and the wall symbolizes a wall."
