thank you for that rvi queen you have no idea what you have just started

also here’s to the 500th post 🎉

Roger Waters-- a tidy anagram for "Regret War So”

bro wat

damn he hated Not Now John though lol

dude went upside down

real

i can see someone hating that song though. i liked it but its definitely ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb

Yall listen to david or rogers solo discography?

@RVI have u?

i flew over some over the years, some more than others

rogers first solo “the pros and cons of hitchhiking” was made same time as the wall - he basically offered the band to pick either hitchhiking or the wall

so that one sounds pretty similar iirc

then david, he started before, i think his first solo is in 78? there’s this song i kept that is great, should’ve been on animals imo to balance out the pro roger songs more

but to make it short basically both of their catalogues sounds what they did with pf when each took over: roger solo albums are all 100% like the final cut, and davids albums are more or less all like the division bell (at least the one i recall the most that is “on an island” i believe)

hbu?

of all things from that album?

altho yeh that makes sense like if we talking as the album concept n experience sonic etc

@RVI did u finish it? what’s ur new take on it or where you rank it

but I fail to see how the universally lauded classic Wish You Were Here is any less "tainted" by his direction.

need to listen more and mayb pay attention to the lyrics but it ranks last besides the post Waters ones which i havent even heard in full yet

7/10 maybe

Yeah i listened to the pros and cons and actually really liked it, dont really ever revisit it but i liked the sounds. Sexual revolution is my favorite off it

Also peeped davids self titled and wasnt a big fan of it but saved a few songs off it like no way, raise my rent, so far away, cry from the street and theres no way out of here

wow 7?

yeah good album

if you rock with that roger stuff he did a new one recently (“recently” as in 2017 but it was his first since the 90s so u know what i mean) that calls back a LOT to the wall

agree on the david album tho, feel like people usually like on island most

also i know nick mason did some albums but never tried it tho, am super skeptical of drummers going solo lol only one dude pulled that off so far

haha glad my post bullied u into it then

pusha t taught me

nah it didnt, was needing to revisit anyway since i have been listening to the wall and liking it more than before. still dont love wall but there are a few amazing songs for sure. ranks below everything before it though

am just gooofin rvi i won’t take such credit thats cool tho, genuinely thot there was no one to defend it

thoughts on the album cover?

doesnt look like a pink floyd album art at all but i kinda like it for some reason
