For my money everything up to (and including) Wish You Were Here is good. Then Waters' misanthropy gets the better of their way and liking the Floyd is solely the preserve of over earnest slightly dim students.

i think, in the middle 90's they were Dud almost all the way among indie kids.(Piper was always exceptional).

It's been one of my favorites ever since I first heard it, thanks very much -- and that was almost twenty years back.

It's like eating a cake, and then forgetting about it, and then getting a new cake. Sure, it's familiar, but it's still fucking cake!

I have always championed Meddle/Dark Side/WYWH/Animals to skeptical guitar-solo-hating indie kids and Barrett-only snobs. It's funny that now indie rockers are deciding it's ok to jam, especially since they do it so much worse than their forebears.

Echoes genuinely terrified me when I was younger, this is true. Especially when listened to in the dark.

Their huge '70s hit LPs barely register with me anymore. As for everything post '79, I don't wanna know.

the thing about The Wall is that Roger was just trying to hard and no one was there to keep him in line. If he hadn't gone Andrew Lloyd Webber, it could have stood the test of time.
And I kind of realized that I still love "Comfortably Numb." Remarkably so.

comfortably numb was such a favorite of mine back when - i need to listen again
seems kinda sappy and heavy now, but i haven't listened in too long

mysogynist stadium blues work-outs
Is so so true. Those songs just suck more every year, and the weirdly filtered misogyny becomes more and more obvious.

Waters's bits = ugh. Gilmour's = holy hell. Eldritch's cover = amusing.

I never listen to those songs as Pink Floyd songs, but rather as songs that Pink's band would play.
