How was I shitting on anything?
Even if The Final Cut were a masterpiece, I still don't like it as much as The Wall, and I don't like The Wall as much as any of the albums that came before it (save Ummagumma and their film soundtracks More and Obscured by Clouds, and maybe Saucerful). Therefor, before the wall>after the wall.
My bad. I thought you had included the wall in your original comment. and thus you were lumping 'The Final Cut' in with 'A Momentary Lapse of Reason'. I love the final cut so basically considered that an insult. Furthermore since The Final Cut is an extension of The Wall and they sound very similar with similar plots, it would seem silly to like one but hate the other. But you are saying you arent really a big fan of the wall. So That would make sense you wouldnt like TFC.
my ranking of FaceFuck's ist. imo flyod owns all, no other band has created anything like the music they have over the past 4-5 decades(i'm including solo shit). They are original and bring all other types of genre;s together to make beautiful music. there is nothing in the world like floyd and never will be. there a once in a lifetimes band. anyway, heres how i'd rank that list..
Pink Floyd The Beatles Led Zeppelin The Who The Doors The Jimi Hendrix Experience Rush Queen AC/DC Aerosmith

I agree with you most part, i love absolutely everything David Gilmour has ever done, they are one of the 3 greatest bands ever, I'll just leave it at that.

although I think Led Zeppelin has had a greater (more positive) influence on music. More so then either Pink Floyd or The Beatles. Now I understand to the general public, The Beatles crush Led Zeppelin. However among musicians, I think Led Zeppelin is easily king. How many times has Black Dog been ripped off? Everything about that band screams "iconic". I personally like Pink Floyd way more, however I'd never claim they had a greater influence on music than Led Zeppelin did.

I agree, Zepplin has been more of an influence on music. and youre right many of their songs have been ripped off over and over again. However, I do think floyd is just on another level, they took waht everyone else was doing at the time and made it into their own special genre. zepplin may have had an influence on other muscians, but i think flyd had more of an impact on music as a whole by showing that you can do and creat anything. I just love pink floyd

Agreed. curious... did you get into Floyd or Zeppelin first? I first got into Floyd before which then got me into Zeppelin. I ask because I wonder if there could be something to which one you got into first?
I started listening to them around the same time. When I was a kid I got into my dad's CD's and I remember the first song's I heard by the was Money by PF, and Stairway to Heaven by LZ. As I got older and into my teenage years I started listening to floyd more and more. I went from Darkide, then Wish you were here, then once I heard Animals I was sold, I was sold beofre that, but Animals is my favorite album all time with my all time favorite song being dogs. I saw the pulse DVD around the same time and that was and still is my favorite music DVD, just so extrodinary. as i got older and into my late teens i relaized PF had a shitload of albums out even before Darkside and that's when I got into that stuff and then I could listen from back in the 60's to present and see how this band developed into what they are today. It's pretty amazing how they evolved and pretty much created their own genre.
I am a casual Zepplin fan, theyre great, I give them respect, but theyre not one of my favorites. IV being my favorite album by them. To be totally honest, I never really like Plant's voice. I love the band, theyre great and on alot of tracks I can digg plants voice but overall I think that's is why I don't put them on the level as I do Floyd or The Beatles.
I do however credit these 2 bands into getting me into good music. These were 2 of the first bands I ever heard. Along with Hendrix, Metallica, Nirvana, The Who, The Beatles, ect. Those were the types of bands I first started listening to when I was like 10ish. I still love them all today. I've gotten into alot of other music, I dont stick to one specific genre, but Floyd is definately by far my favorite band and I've been saying that for at least 10 years. Pink Floyd FTW \m/
Today in my Art of Human Rights class, the professor played Another Brick in the Wall at the end of class. I was like. :-? because it seemed out of place.
