Mario i ask you to listen to animals one more time, even a couple.. set aside some time to listen to the songs . completely relaxed.. appreciate the songs.. it takes a while to get over needing songs with hooks or choruses, and looping riffs, but when i learned to appreciate real prog songs, Animals became my favorite cd.. at first i didnt like dogs or pigs at all. but i fell in love with sheep.. 2 more listens to dogs and i was in love.. it took me bout 4-5 listens to echoes for me to like it.. and when i did.. it became my 2nd favorite PF song next to dogs.. my #3 is Wish you were here ( all parts)

i also love the theme of animals, its based of animal farm by george orwell.. and in a nutshell dogs are business men that stab eachother in their back, only thinking about themselves trying to get up the corporate ladder.

pigs are CEO's or other high ranking people that dont give a crap about anything else, they are slimy beings, the lowest form of life on earth

And Sheep are followers, that dont think for themselves, they are lead to their death, and are afraid of the dogs.

DRAGGED... DOWN... BY.. THE STONE...

arghh.. i have to stop listening to sepultura now and bust out animals.. its been almost 6 months :P

check my edit from my last post.

when you listen to dogs dude, have the lyrics sheet out.. the lyrics blow my mind, i love them.. and also david gilmours solo's in the song KILL.. Dogs is a Song that all classical rock guitar players know.

The only Floyd albums I know are Saucerful of Secrets, Meddle, Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall and Momentary Lapse of Reason. I would rank those as follows:

1. Wish You Were Here
2. Animals
3. Dark Side of the Moon
4. A Momentary Lapse of Reason
5. A Saucerful of Secrets

7. Meddle
8. The Wall

None of them are bad albums, mind you. ;)

Thanks to nimatoad for recommending Animals. Never really bothered with the album before. Going through Dogs now. super_mario_128

1. The Wall

2. Dark Side of the Moon

3. The Division Bell

4. A Momentary Lapse of Reason

5. Wish You Were Here

i never really felt the magic with post waters floyd.. its ok.. not bad but not meorable IMO.. i might give it another listen since i havnt listened to bell or lapse in like 2 years ..
but i'm not too big on pre meddle PF either.. piper sounds like a 5 year old wrote it, syd really was crazy.. i mean when i listen to bike i get shivers.. its like a horror movie .. it sounds more schizophrenic than sepultura's album schizophrenia itself...

anyways i like astronomie dominie, interstellar overdrive and the atom heard mother suite, then from meddle especially echoes and one of these days

have you heard Voivods astronomie domine Cover Gabu? is much better, sounds much more clear and production is great, here is alink

[QUOTE="MarioRPGer"]

[QUOTE="super_mario_128"] Or now. Just came to the end. I enjoyed it. I don't profess to be a music critic but it got me interested. And I second nimotoad's claim on the lyrics: brilliant.nimatoad2000

Oh, and one more thing for those who have tried. Does that whole Dark Side/Oz sync thing really work. Ive always wanted to try it.

[QUOTE="nimatoad2000"] i hear a good few things do line up, but a lot of other things dont, its a huge coinsidence.. BUT Pink Floyd actually made echoes to match up with the end of 2001 a space oddesy on purpose.. because they were upset that they wernt asked to score it in the first place.MarioRPGer

Typeo meant to say Roger, Roger Waters was the bassist(sp?) for Pink Floyd.

[QUOTE="MarioRPGer"]

[QUOTE="DarkGamer007"] Actually Rogers turned down the offer to do the music for 2001 a Space Oddessy.

Edit never mind I read that line wrong on Wiki, it doesn't specifiy wether the band turned it down, wasn't asked, or asked but never submited music.

yup jethro tull beat metallica for the first best metal band grammy. the only thing that is even slighly close to metal that tull has done is that the opening riff to aqualung is pretty heavy.

1) Animals
2) The Wall & Wish You Were Here
3) Dark Side of the Moon
