Re: Best Pink Floyd Album

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Piper at the Gates of Dawn. This is their most underappreciated album. IMO it's their 2nd best, right after DSOTM. Also, I really have no idea what the fuss over Animals is.

This is a great album too, but I don't think it's on the same level as their 70s stuff. The main difference is the lyrics, which have reason, purpose and power in their best albums, whereas on Piper, the lyrics are basically just manifestations of way too much acid dropped. It's still a great album, but not one that I'd put above their 70s masterpieces.
Animals is super.
