DSOTM or The Wall?

[Slashboi]

Finalists from the last poll. Go Krazy (that's right, I spelt it with a K. I'm wild, what will I do next?).

[WhiffleBallTony]

DSOTM easily for me. The Wall doesn't even come close.

As good as "Dark Side" is, for me "The Wall" conveys a strong emotional bond. Maybe because I can understand some of the pains and paranoia felt in the movie, but In really relate to the lyrics and melodies of The Wall.

Dark Side of the Moon comes close to those feelings, but "Us and Them" and "Any Colour You Like" break it up for me.

PATGOD. 'Nuff said.

The Wall is excellent, but Dark Side... is a freaking masterpiece.

I disagree. The Wall did it more for me than Dark Side. I guess it's the opposite for me. Dark Side is excellent, but the Wall is a masterpiece, for me.

I voted DSOTM for the sake of the poll.

[Rockbandfan23467]

DSOTM. The Wall is great but there are a few weak tracks. DSOTM only has "Any Colour You Like" as a weak track. Speak to Me is a good intro, Breathe is amazing, On The Run is a fine instrumental, Time is, of course, a masterpiece, The Great Gig in The Sky is fun to joke about, Money is the big hit, deservingly so, Us and Them is a simpley written masterpiece, and Brain Damage/Eclipse makes a perfect ending.

[metalhead27]

The Wall for me.

Agreed, but the Wall has more tracks than DSOTM and has only about 3 weak ones, and since there are more tracks on the wall, the ratio wins, and therefore the Wall is better. In my opinion, of course.

[Slashboi]

The Wall for me.

Ye.

Fifthed but voted for The Wall

[idiotec]

The Wall. Nothing else like it.

I will sixth Animals, but for the sake of the poll I'll say DSOTM.

A lot of those songs are played on my iPod everyday and they never get old.

The Wall was a double album, leaving more room for mistakes. Dark side, meanwhile, was a ten-track album, just one bad track can ruin an album of that length.

The Wall was better in my opinion, in fact, it's one of my top ten favorite albums ever. Disc 1 is perfect, while disc 2 has only a couple weak tracks. Pink Floyd tried a balls-to-the-wall rock concept album and they nailed it.

[Ryyke]

DSotM for me. It flows perfectly as an album.

[WingsOfSteel]

DSotM is way more cohesive as an album and has a lot less filler than The Wall.

On the other hand, The Wall has a lot of great standout tracks due to its length. (Hey You, Comfortably Numb, Another Brick, etc)

While they have about the same amount of great songs, I'm going for DSotM because it doesn't drag as much.

[elfreako]

Does it really take that long to type "Dark Side of the Moon" ?
Such a fantastic album title commands more respect than that.

[Chatham]

DSOTM, not Roger Waters pretentious ego-work before he kicked Wright out of the band and pretty much forced Gilmour to split. The Wall was a disaster of an album, save maybe "Comfortably Numb".

The original vinyl had the heartbeat repeated for eternity, didn't it?

The original vinyl had the heartbeat repeated for eternity, didn't it?

i havent listened to the original vinyl for a while....

(i dont personally have my own copy...yet, my dad has two)



weird fact: there are 4 copies of On The Threshold of a Dream by the Moody Blues on vinyl in my house (2 mine, 2 my dads)

The songs on Dark Side of The Moon are better than the songs on the Wall, however. (IMO)

[DJFreddyG]

The "Heartbeat" at the end was an intentional skip, so their would be no ending to the side.
For me "The Wall" was perfect. A complete story that can easily play as a movie in your head. Although some tracks were "weak", they were not filler, they were necessary to get to the next point in the story.
There have bean many concept albums, most of which were poorly conceived. This is a standout in a decade of truly great albums....including "Dark Side of the Moon".

[l-o-t]

You like to make polls doncha', OP?

[Chatham]

The "heartbeat" on DSTOM (yes, it's a good album, but we all know what that means now) does go on for quite sometime, and on some record players it keeps skipping back so it sounds like it is going on forever.

The Wall is underrated by floyd fans, and even though i couldn't vote i'd say the wall
