Pink Floyd

[F L E S H]

I stay away from anything Pink floyd past the Wall. Just not the good stuff. I have to say the album Wish You Were Here is probably the finest Pink floyd album. I recently got Obscured by Clouds, which is a bit too rocky to be the best Pink Floyd. Any Floyd in the 60s and 70s is great, though they are a band that has music taht is much better than some of their music. Welcom to the Machine is by far (for me at least) the coolest Floyd song I have ever heard.

I rented Pulse and was very upset with what I got. I don't want to see Nick Mason running around like some crazy 80s drummer during Learning to Fly. I want to see a fucking dazed as hell band playing "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" whhich is a great ass fucking song man.

Man, I couldn't agree more. Even The Wall is iffy for me... Everything before that is art at the highest level. Careful With That Axe Eugene, Echoes, Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Dogs, Sheep, all those long and slow songs are so fucking awesome. Then there's the shorter ones, Astronomy Domine, Lucifer Sam, Time, Money, Us and Them, Wish you were Here, Have a Cigar... Man, this is the best band of all time, tied with The Beatles

yeah the Wall definitely seems like it loses the psychadelic edge a lot. There longer songs are definitely so damn awesome, along with their short ones, but the long ones are just so rewarding. some people aren't into the longer songs, but if ur into it it is like 100x better. The developement and suspense is just so great in Sheep. It's funny listening to a live sheep version then listening to the recording, cause the live version is not too slow, but the recording next to the live is at super slow-mo.

U should try the band King Crimson. If u haven't given em a try u should def get "In the Court of the Krimson King." A little jazzier than floyd, but in that really nice long songed proggressive category.

dude king crimson rule yea that album or "red" are amazing. songs like happy family, cat food, man there are so many i cant remember rite now. there songs are weird but there so good if u listen to em enough times. and you should definately check out gentle giant octopus album coz its ace.

no way, I just red a book by Stephen King, that had a character in it called the Krimson King.. he keeps appearing in different Stephen King books, and in a way, hes kinda like the equivelant of the devil.. ANYWAY, one of the chapters was called "In the Court of the Krimson King".. wierd

[sugarmagnolia]

stephen king has tripped too much while listening to King Crimson

[GHoSToKeR]

lol probably

The Krimson King is in the books Insomnia, and the Dark Tower Series, by the way.. He's kinda like the devil, that lives on the top floor of the Dark Tower, which is one end of the axis that holds all the universes together.. Hmm, I think youre right about him tripping too much, lol, but the Dark Tower books are fucking awesome.. Like Lord of The Rings, with less gay Elves and more shooting people lol

[naturalmystic]

those dark tower books sound intrigueing

Led Zeppelin- Stairway to Heaven is better than any of the songs named on this thread.
