God fuck roger waters and his shitty music and shitty lyrics
That was "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" you listened to, stupid.

Fuck Waters. Floyd should have all an-hero'd after they fired Syd.

I've never, ever, ever, ever seen a compelling argument for why Roger Waters was a good songwriter in Pink Floyd. The only people who respond are shitty teenagers like you who can't handle the fact that your pseudo-intellectual shite has no meaning to it. "The Gnome" is better than everything on DSOTM.

What did they mean by this?

DSOTM is just 14 year old "lolsodeep" embarrassment. It's not even musically compelling, just spacey shitty solos and boring melodies.
PATGOD is better than anything that came after the wall, that's about it though
it isn't even syd's best work
and I've never heard a perfectly good guitar riff ruined by a band that wrongfully thinks it can jam like in interstellar overdrive
dreadful
>>65692014
is it really that hard to like both?
>>65692061
>it isn't even syd's best work
Post "his best work."
>and I've never heard a perfectly good guitar riff ruined by a band that wrongfully thinks it can jam like in interstellar overdrive
So are you a pleb who can't handle noise or otherwise athematic improvisations?
>>65692070
I seriously have no fucking clue why people like DSOTM or WYWH.
Animals at least has that neat whole tone progression in Dogs but seriously, Roger Waters was shit at writing songs.
>>65692079
his entire solo career is better than his work with floyd
and noise is simply noise, there's no depth to it, you've merely trained your ears to suffer through it so you could appear as "intellectual" as the music critics you doubtlessly idolize
>>65691763
Hmmm, was planning to check out Saucerful today, as I often hear it's the closest to Piper in their discography. Piper is definitely their best, so I was hoping Saucerful would also be great. I don't hate DSotM, though, so maybe I'll be able to groove with Saucerful a bit more.
I just hope that we can all agree that Atom Heart Mother is a steaming pile of garbage.
>>65692263
Not him but...you're one of those. What are you doing in a board like this?
>>65692094
>Animals at least has that neat whole tone progression in Dogs
Care to explain? Not doubting you, just interested in having a better understanding, since I'm a bit of a neophyte when it comes to theory
>>65692263
>his entire solo career is better than his work with floyd
Listened to Barrett. Way too weak a voice. Way too derivative compositions.
>and noise is simply noise, there's no depth to it, you've merely trained your ears to suffer through it so you could appear as "intellectual" as the music critics you doubtlessly idolize
You sound like an oldfag who doesn't know anything about 20th century music.
>>65692356
Well it's actually not a whole-tone progression, I should have relistened to it.
First chord is F7, second chord is Bb, third chord is Bmin, fourth chord is some derivation of Bb.
I don't know why I had remembered it as whole tone.
>>65692427
Gotcha, thanks man.
Also, relistening to Piper. Love the bassline on Chapter 24.
