Pink Floyd = the black Radiohead

Yeah, Nick Mason's triumphant vocal debut and swan song all in one.

Much love for LIVE AT POMPEII, which I spent an entire year watching and leaving in the background. It's soaked into my DNA at this point.

obviously pink floyd as they are my youth whereas radiohead is not even my older age, they are just there. i found them annoying in the beginning, quite interesting for a while (peaking in amnesiac) and then boring again. these days i'd be more keen on a new pink floyd album than on a new radiohead album.

I tell you one thing, next time I want a bunch of ilxors to post nice things about a band or an artist I like, I will pit them against Radiohead in a poll

Ended up putting on AHM after Jon mentioned it and "Summer '68" kicks so much ass.

Thanks Jon!

meddle is the other floyd album that is just . . . . i kind of can't even listen to it, it's too good

surm, Saturday, 2 February 2013 23:24 (eleven years ago) link

Haha, I'm listening to it right now. I do think there's some filler -- "Seamus" and "San Tropez" -- and I prefer the Pompeii performance of "Echoes," but in a lot of ways, I find this era of Floyd the most intriguing.

Only a Radiohead fan would start a thread like this.

How dare you sir

christmas candy bar (al leong), Saturday, 2 February 2013 23:45 (eleven years ago) link

seamus at first sounded like filler to me but after years i have come to adore it

and st tropez is one of my favorites, even if it's pop floyd

actually echoes is my least fav track on the album!

surm, Sunday, 3 February 2013 00:42 (eleven years ago) link

seamus is definitely the most atom heart mother track on meddle

surm, Sunday, 3 February 2013 00:42 (eleven years ago) link

surm otm I love Tropez

yes, san tropez & seamus are awesome and low-key. their presence adds something special to meddle.

it's obviously Radiohead. more quality product, no acrimony between members, VERY few meandering jerkoff passages, mostly great songs. the last one was business as usual but still good. PF has too much dead space on both ends of the masterwork.

you are my capitalism (spazzmatazz), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 19:01 (eleven years ago) link

A point in floyd's favour is that they had one singer who was actually quite pleasant to listen to. Tom york should let the other guys sing sometime, they might be ok at it.

a vote for radiohead is a vote for cold gruel, icy showers, and arithmetic at 6 a.m.
