I was simply saying what I thought were the best Floyd albums, as it is an Unpopular Music Opinions Thread. Most people think that The Wall/DSOTM are their greatest (from my experience with various other places), so seeing as they brought up, I just thought I'd comment on it. Didn't mean anything by it, wasn't forcing recommendations down your throat.

I was being sarcastic you tool.

The power of Christ compels you.

I know, I'm just saying why RCVA brought it up as a TCS roasting because everytime PF comes up, people ask why/show their shock or kindly recommend things like you did, and I will listen to Animals later.

But it does light the burning torch of hatred I have for him! Plus, he's a terrible musician. He can't sing and he can't play guitar, but somehow someway people started thinking he was underrated. OK.

Because all grunge bands sound exactly the same, right?
I'm not a huge grunge fan myself, but saying "IF YOU LIKE (genre) BUT HATE (band) YOU'RE JUST A TOOL" is a pretty goddamn ignorant and stupid thing to say.

Hell yeah. Let's be friends.

There's a lot more psychedelic influence in their music, but they're still progressive. Personally I think that's why they're BETTER than every prog band - they don't just play crazy stuff like Crimson or Yes, they basically took psychedelic music and twisted it around a lot.

Although, then you say they're not all that psychedelic...what are they?

Also, I'd probably give Animals top billing in their discography, then Dark Side of the Moon with Wish You Were Here bringing up the rear.

The Wall is pretty middling, got some cool songs but it's not the masterpiece everyone says it is. I think Mark Prindle, who I don't often agree with, hit the nail on the head; it's an album for teenagers. Very youthful.

The thing that used to amaze me about Floyd when I first getting into them 3-4 years ago was the fact that I had no idea how to define what they did. The prog/psych tendencies are there, but I've never found them to be fitting descriptions of what they did. That's partially to do with the fact that they were the first band that amazed me (post-Green Day phase) so I always have a part of my cranium dedicated to putting them up on an immovable pedestal, even while I've learned that's not the case.

Then again, in retrospect, I don't really know what else you could call them. Rock music? Too general. So I'd have to go for 'prog/psych' in the end, if only by being forced into it.

edit: I also agree with what he said on The Wall. I'm still a teenager and all, but I can't stomach it like I used to be able to.

That's partly what pisses me off about Floyd. They're so groundbreaking and experimental they don't have a genre. They're Progressive rock ffs.
