I've been saying for 20 years that PF might be the most genius band in history. The Wall is art.

saw him doing the wall a few years ago, and it was amazing. I've been looking for the proper run like hell video, where he drops "pathetic" right before it gets real, but I haven't found it yet.

no he's not, and that's why he owns, but Gilmore kinda owns in his own way, I mean he did the best post waters song there could be

Roger Waters has The Final Cut, David Gilmour has Learning To Fly.

Roger Waters has serious daddy issues, David Gilmour has On The Turning Away.

This is tough

Man, I can't wait until the guy from the last pink floyd thread comes in here to quote every single person in the thread and own them with stuff like "pink floyd is not good" "you like bad music" and "roger waters is dumb".

The wall has so much filler. Would've been a decent EP.

pink floyd is really mediocre and their "deep" concept albums come off as really pretentious

"oh look our album has a story this makes it better than all the other drivel out there"

at least the other drivel out there has artistic merit outside of being browbeaten with "the point" and "good technical musicianship"

your wrong since they're not really technical at all, in fact nick mason pretty much sucks and the rest are good but def not technical. gilmour is a pretty good guitarist but he's mostly good at making up guitar leads and his best ones aren't hard at all.

if you hate on floyd you prob. don't like psychedelic poo poo which is fine but you shouldn't embbarrass yourself any further since it's pretty obv. you haven't listened to them much

gilmore is the best, roger waters was a cool dude but he like a lot of rockers back then became a pretentious fuckwad at one point

then again, at least roger waters became aware of when he became a pretentious fuckwad (see: animals tour, then the wall)

in defense of waters, he was a pretentious fuckwad and his solo stuff like the wall is boring but they had contractual obligations but all the other were just happy to sit at home smoke weed and get blowjobs or w/e and waters was the only one writing stuff.

they actually fired nick mason due to lack of commitment and then hired him back as a session drummer for tours. dysfunctional band, pink floyd
