Favorite Pink Floyd album?

The awful acoustic songs? That's like half the album, they're what make it so damn good.

My favorite Pink Floyd albums would go in this order:

1. Animals
2. The Final Cut
3. Wish You Were Here
4. Meddle
5. Division Bell
I find it quite hard to explain as to why Animals is my favorite Pink Floyd album, I guess if I was going to put it into simple terms, the album has some sort of mystical allure to it. The track "Dogs" is absolutely mesmerizing, from the amazing guitar riffs to the bone chilling vocals, it just sold the entire album for me. Now, I also enjoy the Final Cut immensly as well, I think this one of Pink Floyd's most underrated albums, it is very depressing yes, but I think that's what makes the album so good.

Wish You Were Here.

To be fair, I've only heard four or so different Pink Floyd albums and I've only heard them a handful of times.

Animal is by far there best album. The only thing i love more than pink floyd is insanely long pink floyd songs. Nothing beats the reward you get for listening to them.

There's nothing like listening all the way through the changes and musical journeys of songs like Echoes, Interstellar Overdrive and Dogs. IMO Pink Floyd were the best band at creating over 10 minute songs that were interesting all the way through.

The new (Immersion) Wish You Here album is worth checking out, if that was considered separate it would be my favorite. It has 10+ minute live version of Shine On You Crazy Diamod, an early version of Dogs (You Got to Be Crazy), and Pigs (Raving and Drooling). It's soooooo good!
