listened to most of this new one last night. i didn't hate it, but it is occasionally hilarious in its floydian cut n paste.

As someone born in the early 70s, it's funny to go back and listen to Animals.

"Hey, you, JIMMY CARTER. Ha ha, charade you are…" and to think the punk rockers didn't like this band.

pplains, Tuesday, 11 November 2014 15:05 (nine years ago) link

The punk rockers were lying, they ruddy loved "Animals"

Mark G, Tuesday, 11 November 2014 15:16 (nine years ago) link

i thought Pink Floyd was a punk band when i was little because of the artwork for The Wall and the song "Another Brick in the Wall" which was the only Pink Floyd song I'd ever heard

(my friends older bro had a silkscreen Wall banner the type you'd get at county fairs)

A woman in overalls sits inside a wooden booth, pulling tapers down on a cherry-red candle with a ringed hook. A paper plate with a funnel cake sits on a barrel beside her while a silkscreen banner depicting a screaming face coming through a brick wall billows in the breeze on the side.

<i>(my friends older bro had a silkscreen Wall banner the type you'd get at county fairs)</i>

these were the best. do they still do this? there should be a thread or website commemorating rock stuff from fairs.

Feel like pointing out that Waters' concert film of The Wall tour premiered last month, looking forward to that a lot more than I am to hearing this Gilmour snoozefest

goth colouring book (anagram), Tuesday, 11 November 2014 15:50 (nine years ago) link

i kinda like how boring this is tbh

punk rocketeer (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 11 November 2014 15:51 (nine years ago) link

I wanted to get lost in the dream but I was listening on spotify & so every couple of songs I'd get BALKSHDGLSDHG listen to the new Marianne Faithfull album AFVOGUHSFHDG which kinda broke the vibe (I should listen to the new Marianne Faithfull album though)

also I was reading The Rules of Attraction last night and at one point a guy walks into a bathroom and

PINK FLOYD RULES

is written on the mirror and I said to myself

PINK FLOYD RULES

^^IIRC, "Us and Them" appears in the text later on.

yeah one of the characters has it on loop on the car during a long drive

droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 11 November 2014 22:14 (nine years ago) link

So, is the extra 33 minutes or whatever that's on the deluxe Blu-Ray or DVD version worth, like, double the price? Anyone?

Jimmywine Dyspeptic, Wednesday, 12 November 2014 00:31 (nine years ago) link

you get them rocking out to a song that rips the keyboard line from "Sex Farm".

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 12 November 2014 00:42 (nine years ago) link

'endless river' > "echoes" [because there's no lame waters "funk" breakdown]

reggie (qualmsley), Wednesday, 12 November 2014 00:56 (nine years ago) link

The funk breakdown is the best part!

(at least, on the Pompeii version -- easily one of my favorite Floyd moments)

(because it RULES)

So wright and mason are on this right?

calstars, Thursday, 13 November 2014 12:54 (nine years ago) link

The new one I mean

calstars, Thursday, 13 November 2014 12:55 (nine years ago) link

i kinda dig this stuff, i think it's better if you think of it as organic, live instrument ambient music w/o the expectations of a "rock band"

now almost interested in listening to something by Pink Floyd apart from those two early-70s BBC shows with the Peel intros

the incredible string gland (sic), Thursday, 13 November 2014 13:28 (nine years ago) link

Haha I almost said it was balaeric but honestly I still have no idea what that means

punk rocketeer (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 13 November 2014 13:40 (nine years ago) link

Everything from "Windowlicker" to "I am the Music Man"

Mark G, Thursday, 13 November 2014 13:48 (nine years ago) link

keep going matt, I'm almost there

simon reynolds in the wire: "remarkably, this last gasp from glimour and company resembles nothing less than a MDMA damaged jj cale album produced by bryan ferry and fka twigs"

dynamite hack there from SR, one short hop away from band x = band y + acid

The 5 FPs (MaresNest), Thursday, 13 November 2014 16:37 (nine years ago) link

i may have made that up completely :)

punk rocketeer (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 13 November 2014 16:49 (nine years ago) link

This new one works for me more than anything they released since, well, Animals but it also confirms that Pink Floyd ruled only when they were a more democratic band. PF as a pseudo-solo vehicle, whether it be the Barrett, Waters or Gilmour version, just sounds incomplete in comparison.

doug watson, Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:19 (nine years ago) link

What you say about Waters or Gilmour makes sense, they complimented each other. What you're saying about Barrett is INSANE. Piper at the Gates of Dawn doesn't rule????

dan selzer, Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:33 (nine years ago) link

Barrett Floyd was more democratic than Waters or (especially) Gilmour Floyd (mainly because Gilmour Floyd, at least on AMLOR, had no other Floyd members).

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:55 (nine years ago) link

Barrett Floyd also featured songs written by Waters and Wright, and sung by them! And is also totally faultless.

dan selzer, Thursday, 13 November 2014 18:29 (nine years ago) link

Okay, you're right, Barrett Floyd isn't the same situation as with the Waters and Gilmour Floyds. But I've never really warmed to the Piper era (except for Astronomy Domine and See Emily Play) so nope, it doesn't rule for me.

u need an oil slide projector

i'm not that big on most of the syd stuff either, but that doesn't stop it from RULING

I'll say it again, because I played it again in the car:

http://albumsthatneverwere.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/pink-floyd-shape-of-questions-to-heaven.html

You need this.

This is the reimagined second album with Syd. Side 1 is perfect, side 2 loses it a little but is still great.

Sometimes I wish I could hear the thoughts going through the heads of all the women who posed for that nude pink floyd covers album while they were getting made up/sitting there

my jaw left (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 18 November 2014 16:32 (nine years ago) link

If I didn't know for sure, I'd swear one of them was our Amber.

Mark G, Tuesday, 18 November 2014 17:03 (nine years ago) link

my guess is those girls were thinking

PINK FLOYD RULES

droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 18 November 2014 17:07 (nine years ago) link

Funnily enough, I jut GIs'd that pic, and there's the next one taken just after.

So I can relate that at least one of them is thinking "I've had enough, I'm getting in the pool"
