The Wall will always be many things to many people, individually often skewed greatly towards 'masterpiece' and 'utter wank-shite". If one can take a neutral middle ground here that is mightily impressive and yet, with that assessment, it's impossible to believe they are being truly honest.
I can't stand it, although I guess giving it another full listen wouldn't hurt. As masochistic as the experience has been so far, maybe there will be a silver lining somewhere if one listens close enough.

Well, I wouldn't necessarily say I'm middle ground, but I think I'm pretty close to thinking this is OK. I mean, the tracks can get boring and tedious at times while at other times they can be epic and/or catchy. I wouldn't say I'm middle ground here. I'm a bit more leaning towards good.

This album has never really done it for me, I always remember it as being a bit of a chore to get through. I never understood how Another Brick in the Wall (Part II) got to number one and seemed to stay there forever (I think it was 5 weeks). I found it extremely depressing at that time in my life.
To be fare, I haven't listened to it in years.

Yes, pure genius. Sincere, understated, beautiful. Makes my dick hard.

It's alright. I think I fall into that middle ground of it's okay. There are some great songs on here but the album as a whole is a little long and self indulgent.
Comfortably Numb is one of Pink Floyd's best ever tracks and possibly one of the best ever guitar solos.

They have their moments, they aren't as much of a drag as The Wall, but the last solid Floyd record was A Saucerful for Secrets for me. And even that one had some weak tracks.
I'm more of a Piper at the Gates of Dawn fan instead of a Pink Floyd fan, I suppose |
Hehe, I don't like any Pink Floyd pre-Meddle, so it's like we're not listening to the same band in a way.

The Wall is just awful. What might be most appalling is that Waters actually thought this was a really clever idea.
