all the memes and bullshit aside, is this a legitimately good album?
All the memes and bullshit aside, is this a legitimately good album?
Yes. Obviously. Why do you even need to ask this?
i fucking hate threads like this. It's fucking subjective my guy. Quit asking for validation. Also yes it is legitimately good, now go away.
nope. the only good song is brain damage.
memes aside, its pretty good, genuinely no bad songs, just mediocre ones.
Idk the entire boomer memes turned me off of this album making me think it was overrated prog #25 but now listening to it I actually kind of like it. Wouldn't consider it BEST OF ALL TIME HOLY SHIT but it's a neat record.
Yes. Like a lot of classics it gets memed a bit much, but is still worth checking out.
if u sayin time and a good song ur lying to urself
Yuh it's pretty cool. I personally like Wish you were here more but it's pretty accessible and has some of the band's most popular hits so I can see why a lot of people point DSotM for newcomers. Tracks like Time and Money are catchy as fuck and Brain Damage and Eclipse are the like best back to back to song duo ever since it's basically just one song. Great Gig in the Sky is also a banger with some loud black woman singing over boomer beats kino.
Brain damage and eclipse on acid is like a universal way of opening your mind into a feel of rebirth.
So yes user. It’s fucking good
It's overrated as hell, which is a shame because it's pretty damn good.
It's a bit overrated, but that doesn't at all mean it hasn't earned it and is still a very good, must listen album
this
>some loud black woman singing over boomer beats kino
Lmao bro she was a white english cockney woman.
Have you not listened to it yourself? It's a fucking near universally beloved album for a reason
Yeah I think it's neat and has a very simple yet abrasive sound where the sounds seem to stand out alot. Not the best album ever but is still a neat project.
Compositionally its a triumph, and as a statement on mortality and the drudgery of life it basically achieved something that hadn't been done in rock music before. It's a great album and unironically one of the best of all time. Boomers are right sometimes you know.
yes because i fucking enjoy it and i fucking say so so fuck yourself and stop asking those stupid fucking questions mf

BREAKING AWAY THE MOMENTS THAT MAKE UP A DULL DAY
I'm just dumbfounded when people are on a music board, not even a particularly prominent, and still post things like "lol is this top 5 selling album of all time any good I haven't heard it lol"
>reddit
>"did you know there is another place to discuss music with people like a sunday book meeting? they're all very cultured on this art and theyre not exclusively from australia!"
fuck off twitter
music is literally maths so by definition it is objective
people only have different opinions due to certain preoccupations towards or against certain sounds/lyrics
(e.g. my mum doesn't like when rappers talk about drugs and sex, surprise surprise)
idiot
typical retarded brit. brush your teeth retard
prove me wrong lol
i'm not saying I have the 'right' or 'objective' taste because i fall to these preoccupation too, but i have never seen a convincing argument against this
>It's overrated as hell, which is a shame because it's pretty damn good.
That's the biggest problem with it. Is that it's just a "good" album for the time when everything else in the prog space was so much better at the time. So when it's singled out, it becomes incredibly overrated for such a basic album.
That has absolutely nothing to do with the album's quality.
>quality
you're such a basic cunt aintcha
all art is maths on the fundamental level, but mathematics only describes the technical side of art, the aesthetics themselves are outside the scope of the exact sciences
What makes this album prog, it sounds more like a Beatles album than a yes album
