I admire "Dark side..." but this, its follow-up, is infinitely more moving. And human.

The post-Syd Floyd emerged here from a 4-year-long tunnel of (glorious) uncertainties with an album that managed to be both experimental and super melodic. The high spot of their "democratic" period.

Overrated for sure. Maybe not even Pink Floyd's best, let alone the "second best album of all time" BUT a masterpiece of an album nonetheless, that no loger needs any introduction. Just to be listened to.

George Orwell's "Animal farm" inspired Roger Waters to write a whole album about humanity divided in three archetypes: dogs, pigs and sheep. The music is more than good enough to make the misanthropy very easy to accept.

One side occupied by one long neo-classical piece, the other more song-oriented. Classic pre-Dark Side Floyd.

Its transitional nature makes it one of the most endearing albums in Pink Floyd's discography. And in the last song, you can hear the mind of a great songwriter, Syd Barrett, fragmenting in front of your ears. Scary.

A film soundtrack where the band emerge as masters of atmosphere, and Roger Waters as a very talented songwriter.

I like "The Wall"; it's a very clever album, a big, super production with subtle details (the way the beginning is the continuation of the very last phrase you hear at the very end, for instance), and a rich thematic scope, but... for me, it's a bit hard to digest in one go. Unlike some other "legendary" double albums. Or unlike any other Floyd album in this chart, with the exception of the aptly-titled "... momentary lapse...".
