Roger Waters bloviating for 90 minutes about not having a dad.
- schnable 2y agoGood tunes, though.
- genter 2y agoGilmour can write good music. Too bad Wright was suffering from depression/drug addiction to be very productive. The best Pink Floyd songs are them working together.
- dylan604 2y agoDivision Bell came out and took me a while to appreciate, but man I like that album as much as Dark Side and Meddle. I'm not saying they are all equal, just that I like them all equally. Gilmour is definitely my favorite bender of strings.
- bojanz 2y agoPeople are sometimes unkind to the Division Bell, but it contains one of my personal favorites: "Wearing the inside out". Wright's lyrics and vocals (first time since The Dark Side of the Moon), Gilmore's guitar, it all comes together.
- flir 2y agoIt's a theme he.... revisited. This is the best visit, though.
- westmeal 2y agoTook me dad in the war yeah
- 01100011 2y agoYeah. Love the music but I stopped being able to listen to it a few years ago because it's so.. self-indulgent and emo. It kind of ruined PF for me since I became aware of those themes in their other albums with Waters. I still love and respect PF, but I don't listen much these days. I guess it also correlates with less substance abuse in my life.
- dylan604 2y agoJust as a fan of the music, I picked up the DVD set he released a few years ago. It was delivered to the office I was working at the time, and it was a slow day so we popped it in for a watch. Talking about a let down. It was the exact Waters droning on sentiment the GP had.
- duderific 2y agoI recently took a long car trip solo and was able to listen to Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety without interruption. It still holds up in that kind of scenario; you almost have to listen to whole thing nonstop to fully appreciate it.
- worik 2y ago> I still love and respect PF Me too. My teenage years sitting in the sun smoking pot listening to these incredible sounds.... As a grown up I love everything they did before Dark Side of the Moon: That was when Roger Waters really started complaining. Atom Heart Mother is my favourite
- desertrider12 2y agoI don't think the self indulgence is unbearable until The Trial and "you stand accused of showing feelings of an almost human nature". The Trial is comedy/satire but since the rest of the album is serious and autobiographical, I roll my eyes at what a diva he sounds like there.
- mmooss 2y agoWhy is that an inappropriate theme? 90 minutes isn't long or large for a single work of art, and many artists return to the same themes over their lifetimes.
