Reply #26: Personally speaking, I think Animals is their best album

[Rabrrrrrr]

If they had made The Wall 5 years earlier, or 10 years later, it would have been a much better album. As much as I love it, it sticks out as the only Floyd album that was influenced by the musical and technological trends of the time; which trends were rather shitty.

I love the album, but every time I listen to it I think "Oh, that came out in 1980". None of their other albums give me such a precise sense of time of creation. And that's not a compliment, at all.

If they'd made it in 1975 or 1990, it would have been totally killer.
