Really liked this, surprisingly. Feels like one of NIN's best albums (The Downward Spiral, The Fragile) compressed down into 30 minutes. Even the ambient tracks really work for me. "God Break Down The Door" and "Ahead of Yourselves" are my personal favorites.
Love the cover, love love love the title track, and I think the music that follows is all good too. Having said that, I love the title track so much that the rest of the album is kind of overshadowed for me. Still great, though.
Some cool stuff on here but nothing that really expands or grows into anything memorable or worth mentioning, which is extremely frustrating.
Every time I come back to this one I like it a little more. Can't explain why. I love the guitar kicking in on Sheep, and I think the album cover is gorgeous. The opening and closing tracks are also very pretty.
Easily one of the top three best Pink Floyd albums. Such a touching and personal look into the hollow space left by their old friend and lead singer while also criticizing the music industry. It's been a part of my life since I was born and that's a great thing since this is a fantastic album.
This album got me into Pink Floyd and it's the first album I ever owned physically. I firmly believe that Time, Brain Damage, and Eclipse are some of the best songs I've ever heard. It really touches all aspects of Pink Floyd's history and somehow still manages to speak personally. Sometimes psychedelic and sometimes rock, The Dark Side of the Moon is easily one of Pink Floyd's best.
This is a really entertaining album, has a more upbeat energy than Atom Heart Mother and Meddle and it really shows in the songs. Also doesn't hurt that I think Free Four is one of their catchiest songs ever. Underrated album for sure.
Every song on here is good. Atom Heart Mother, Meddle, and Obscured by Clouds come in a trilogy and I think this is the best of the three. Echoes is the one most people will remember and with good reason, but One of These Days and Fearless also deserve a lot of love.
The title track and Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast aren't great, but everything in between is actually good stuff! If is so emotional and surprisingly touching it makes this album worth listening to.
The live parts are alright but everything else is almost insultingly bad, actually found it hard to continue listening which is a first for me.
Insanely forgettable, there is one track on here I kind of remember and that's it. Not good nor bad, just not something you remember either.
It's not that bad but I also don't think it's that memorable minus Jugband Blues, which is my favorite song on there and I could gush about it all day.
Psychedelic masterpiece made even better with a knowledge of the band's history and what Syd Barrett was going through. I love the guitar on Lucifer Sam. Though Pink Floyd is considered a psychedelic rock band they really never get more psychedelic than this.
Really complicated album (and I think the movie is the ideal way to experience it) but I still think it's one of Pink Floyd's best albums with some of their most memorable songs. Some people argue that some songs don't belong but I think they all do if you're trying to piece together a timeline of the protagonist's life. If you ask me, the movie is much more striking and gets the horrifying tone across better than the album, but the album is still worth your time.
Elevates the album even higher than it was already. Some of the most horrifying animation you can find matched with a depressing and crushing story about the effects of guilt and trauma coupled with drugs, depression, and a downward spiral. A masterpiece of a movie, but one you're not going to walk out of feeling rewarded for seeing.
Great in the movie and on it's own it's equally as great. Love some of the artists who worked on this one but I especially love Trent Reznor and what he did. The Perfect Drug and Driver Down are some of the highlights which is to be expected since that guy is always bringing his best.
