pink floyd
 
what an incredible band. that's all i have to say.
rotten was jealous he didn't have the capacity to make music like this.

uhler 12.13.2007 10:14 PM

i prefer the syd barrett era pink floyd, but yeah i think their post barrett stuff was good too.

Cantankerous 12.13.2007 10:29 PM

dark side of the moon...brain damage/eclipse. fuck me. they were almost like every other psychedelic rock band of the 60s with syd. they became a lot more developed after they booted him out.

I hate Pink Floyd
thats my critical analysis

Cantankerous 12.13.2007 10:51 PM

that's perfectly alright, i despise pavement, which i'm sure i'll get a lot of shit for on this board.

Cantankerous 12.13.2007 10:54 PM

Everyneurotic 12.13.2007 11:10 PM

i love floyd post-syd/pre-dark side, but i'm fine with most of their career, i'm kinda sick of the wall though.

That's so untrue. Can you honestly name a single '60s band that sounds at all like The Pink Floyd? The only vocalists I can think of that sound anything like Syd are the people in later years that he influenced from Bowie to Ka-Spel, Cope, and Hitchcock. He was one of the most distinctive front men of his era, though obviously he didn't have the means to carry on into the next.

it's the general "let's sing about space and fairies and gnomes and castles and kings" psychedelic music of the 60s, i wasn't really referring to the arrangement specifically, just the themes and the guitar sound and things like that. specific elements of it. i love it, but it can (and has been) so easily copied.

King Crimson

Cantankerous 12.13.2007 11:50 PM

FUCK YES.

that would be the best slogan ever.
yessongs is good but typically i don't care for them.

Everyneurotic 12.14.2007 12:04 AM

one of my favorite songs ever is roundabout and fragile is fucking amazing, i have to be in the mood for relayer...i think i like them better live; but yeah, they can be too much.

Cantankerous 12.14.2007 12:05 AM

roundabout is a really good track. but yeah you do have to be in a particular mood to listen to them.

this is not quite relevant but storm thorgerson is a fucking weirdo. his voice!

Everyneurotic 12.14.2007 12:06 AM

rather have them than genesis or jethro tull or rush, that's for sure.

Cantankerous 12.14.2007 12:07 AM

yeah, absolutely. holy shit i hate all three of those bands. phil collins really does deserve to be bludgeoned unmercifully for his crimes against humanity.

Everyneurotic 12.14.2007 12:09 AM

and emerson lake and palmer!!! ugggh!!!

can't believe one of them played in crimson and the other with arthur brown and still blow so hard.
