A polite way of saying all the drugs he did decayed his mind and made him a paranoid, anti-social recluse...a state he lived in (existing in his mother's home) from around 1970 until his death early this past decade.

What killed the Floyd was the fact that anyone tried to carry the band on after Waters. I'm sorry, but Gilmour's A Momentary Lapse of Reason and The Division Bell are the worst albums to come from a respected band name since Doug Yule attempting to continue The VU with Squeeze. A band isn't the same band without their primary songwriter. And while it's true The Final Cut is more of a Waters solo album than a Floyd album, that's far from saying it's bad. Have you ever heard his solo album Amused to Death? Better than almost any Floyd album ever released. I could say the same for The Final Cut.

Me... probably.

I do try to hate it at least once a day.

it makes my head hurt, and I think of it as the album that killed Pink floyd proper. And so it occupies a place in my mind akin to a man who'd run over my pet kitty with a steam roller.

I have this album both on CD and vinyl, and I like it a good bit (more than Wish You Were Here 😲 ). Still, it would definitely be a stretch to call it the best Pink Floyd album

No I haven't heard any of Water's solo stuff. I definitely should check it out.

Used to be my favourite Floyd album. Love the lyrics, love the tone. Favourite songs are Paranoid Eyes, Gunner's Dream & Final Cut. Don't rate it as highly now, but it's still wonderful. Have you heard Waters' solo stuff? If you like Final Cut, I highly recommend Amused to Death, Pros & Cons of Hitchhiking, and even Radio Kaos if you're hardcore.

Pink Floyd released The Final Cut in 1983 and it's pretty much one of the most underrated album by them, next to Meddle. I find The Final Cut 10 times more brilliant that The Wall, it's a much more darker and pessimistic album than any other they have done.

It's basically a Roger Waters solo album, it is so like him. The shouting vocals and rough heavy guitar riffs.

It is probably the most political attacking album ever made.

Who else has a love of The Final Cut?
