The Dark Side Of The Moon

One of the greatest albums ever made. From beginning to end this album is a sweeping symphonic journey exploring life, death, and madness. Pink Floyd were always keen to experiment, and this album sees them going beyond to use the studio itself as an instrument in a way that no one had before. Pink Floyd is known for their long songs that blend into each other and this is no exception. Songs are allowed to build naturally and it is clear that this album was not made for radio success, though it is still in heavy rotation on classic rock stations

i would give it 100/5 if i could

Just perfect.

Magical album. Have listened to this on numerous occasions and never get tired of it.

This is a perfect album. Even the long musical jams are unique and interesting. Listening to this again makes me wonder why I don't listen to it more.

Thought I didn't like it based on a previous listen. But it turns out it is pretty much as good as everyone says.

legendarisk psykedelisk space-rock, kæmpe lydunivers, nostalgisk, blues-vibes, velkomponeret

Really good bathtub listening. I’ve heard this one describes as like an album constructed for audiophiles/people who care a lot about precise mixing, which feels true.

For me personally, this is the best album.

True classic. One of the best albums ever recorded. Progressive rock at it's peak.

This album is a masterpiece

GOAT

Easy 5, hurray!

Well it's got to be a 5 doesn't it? But I wonder in some small way what score I would have given this had I heard if for the first time. It may still have been a 5 or more likely a 4, but I will never know.

It’s an undisputed classic and the best of Pink Floyds work for me. For a prog rock concept album, it still manages to balance out with some great songs. Brain Damage and Eclipse is a great ending, Us and Them, Time and Money are iconic and even the instrumentals carry weight.

a woork of art. And a pleasure to listen to right through after probably 20 years. 5

Duh

5 stars

I absolutely love this album. One of the first albums that really caught my attention as a teenager. It is such a fantastic listen.

This isn’t called a seminal record for nothing! Amazing!

A truly thrilling experience. Sounds like something all out of whack with time and space. Absorbing.

I only listened to half of this but mostly because I Have listened to it so many times. It's pretty perfect... But I don't love it as much as The Wall.

One of the best

A classic, and rightfully so

The crown jewel of Pink Floyd's discography and perhaps the greatest headphone album ever made. Incredible how far studio wizardry had come in such a relatively short time. I can listen to this over and over again. I find it every bit as thrilling as the first time I heard it. The fact that something as experimental and adventurous as this, is also one of the best selling albums of all time, will never cease to amaze me.

Finalmente apreciado por inteiro

10/10 even tho I listened to it on an airplane this time

10/10. I like to say that this is overrated as Pink Floyd albums, but it's still a 10

A life changing album for me. 10/10

Esperienza mistica e affascinante. Fino a Money mi pareva mancasse una canzone top. Trovata: capolavoro!

An all-time classic. Definitely, one of the best albums ever made. 5/5. I remember the first time I heard Money when it came out. It was like nothing I ever heard of before. When I got older I heard the rest of the album and it blew me away.

5.0

Este álbum desarrolla un concepto totalmente interesante que invita a reflexionar entre tema y tema. Sin dudas una obra maestra dotada de una altísima excelencia musical en todos los aspectos (composicioón, producción, instrumentos, etc).

Ameh d e så bra

Ett pangalbum faktiskt.

A classic that has stood the test of time. Wore the grooves out of this in HS but I've heard it enough thus that I don't really care if I never hear it again, but I listened to it for this exercise and still recognize it's greatness. 5 🌟

Perfection

Dark Side of the Moon Love the dreamy start to the album. Feels like On the Run kinda kills the momentum though, and the abrupt intro of Time is jarring. Maybe this is on purpose? Money still slaps kinda an abrupt end too lol

This record got me into Pink Floyd, and is the first of the three albums that I consider the best of their discography; Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, and Animals. I love David Gilmour's style and tone. Lots of really great analog synth lines. The song writing is a good balance of Gilmour's and Waters' styles. An album I've listened to probably hundreds of times at this point, but still isn't played out in my mind.

Flows exceptionally well. Immaculate production and sound design for its time. "The Great Gig In The Sky" is one of the most chilling vocal performances of all time. "Money" is such a naturally grooving 7/4 song and the Gilmour's solo bangs. The rising chorus in "Us and Them" is just massive. There is a reason this has the universal acclaim that it does, and I 100% agree.

Timeless classic.

I genuinely believe this is the only record anyone needs. The themes are just as poignant today as they were in 1973. It is an actual timeless classic.

Maybe a little overhyped, but there's a reason this album gets so much praise; it's excellent. Dark Side of the Moon is not my favourite PF release, I think each of the three subsequent albums surpass it, but this was where they really transformed themselves into a great band. Money is one of the all-time best prog rock songs.

I went into this aware that this is considered one of the best albums of all time by many MANY people, but also feeling like I've never really \"got\" Pink Floyd. Like I've listened and enjoyed bits but I've never got the hype... OOF I think I get it now The atmosphere of this whole album is gorgeous, all lush and dramatic and cool. I don't have much to say other than I bloody love it

I nearly gave this a 4 as it's not quite my favourite Pink Floyd album, but all of the criticisms I had seemed so minor and nitpicky when I started typing them out It's just really damn good, not perfect in my opinion but close enough

Fav songs: - Breathe (In The Air) - Time - The Great Gig In The Sky - Us And Them - Brain Damage - Eclipse

Classic

А че незя ставить шесть

G O D

Perfection. Utter, complete, absolute perfection as music, as art, as an experience. I strongly encourage you to spend time watching Polyphonic's series of brief videos going through this album song by song. The videos are available on Nebula (worth subscribing to) and YouTube. Noah (creator and producer of Polyphonic's videos) has a wonderful gift for adding cultural and societal perspective to music and is definitely worth following. (No, I have no connection to him or his work; just love his stuff.)

Gold

Dope

Never heard of it.

Really is an incredible album.

One of the best albums ever. Timeless.

I love revisiting this classic. It's so dreamy and dense and just perfect!!

La portada, els arranjaments, les melodies, els efectes de so, els pasatges instrumentals... No hi ha res en aquest disc que no sigui perfecte

Un chef d'oeuvre. 6/5 tout simplement un album qui dépasse les époques et les styles.

Some of the best music ever made

17th January 2022 Listened to the vinyl in the early afternoon while trying to make a video for the edit. One of the all time classics, it's unique and groundbreaking.

Timeless classic!!

Already know 6

true classic that completely succeeds musically and thematically

Overrated perhaps, but hard to argue against a 5.

Another all time classic, one of my favourite albums before this, and it still is. A masterwork, best listened to as a whole, but Money and Eclipse are my favourite "movements"

This album is Money

Legendary

It’s a classic for a reason

The best

One the best albums of all time. Brain damage and time are my favorite

A 2000 lb. gorilla of an album that stayed in the charts for what, decades? And rightly so.

A masterpiece. One of the most iconic albums ever and one of the rare cases in which the most popular is also the best.

Can't get much better than this

Was gutted when it finished, played it again straight away.

Lives up to the hype. "Time" has to be the best song off the album, beautiful and haunting.

Such a classic. Love a good electric guitar, love the album, love how utterly and unabashedly weird it is. Fave track: Money. I can always get behind a weird time signature.

They very very best!

Classic, amazing

Superb

The goat

Simply the best. My favorite band! My favorite song is Time. Have listened to it hundreds of times, I'm sure.

Classic!

legendary

I mean what else can be said about this one that hasn’t been said before? It hits differently every time, but in a faintly familiar way

Psychedelic bliss

I was surprised to see that I not only got an album I've already heard before so early (day 4), but that it was also one that I have heard so many times because I love it so much. My uncle gave me a copy of this album on CD when I was in high school, and it became a main staple of the CD book in my old Honda Accord. It has also been my go-to flight album as it features a great range of calm to intense sounds that make the airplane experience fun/interesting. It is hard for me to argue that it isn't a perfect album as every track stands out and cannot be skipped (whenever I hear one song, I want to hear the entire album). If I HAD to choose my favorite tracks, I would say Time, Breathe (in the Air), and the Brain Damage/Eclipse finale (that's like half of the album right there). 5/5.

Can't go wrong with Pink Floyd tbh

Definitely a classic

Stone cold classic

Money- favourite song Nice, relaxing

One of the greatest albums of all time. Established. Moving on.

Iconic

Love this album. Atmospheric

"Breathe (In The Air)" has the classic chill, progressive/psychedelic rock, Pink Floyd Vibe to it -I do like the synth(?) riff of "On The Run" -"Time" is certainly a standout song. Definitely has a solid groove, and I how it is less-drone-like-ness than the other songs on that side of the album -In my opinion, "Money" is definitely the best song on the album, by quite a wide margin. Way more energy and groove, and the jam parts have lots more going on, more evidently and more quickly. And it gets pretty darn heavy too. -"Brain Damage" and "Eclipse" are good too -Overall very sonically interesting, even in the slower parts

Still excellent :-)

Just brilliant

Amazing, still holds up

Not really a debate. Puts you in a place not many other albums can, art is beautiful, production insane, etc. Us and Them is SO underrated and is a song I could probably listen to every day until I die. 5 stars Already Saved: Time; The Great Gig In The Sky; Us and Them Saved After Listening: Breathe (In the Air)*, Brain Damage

Saved Prior: None (been saving this one) Not Saved: 10. Speak to Me (but it's not getting skipped truzz) Off Rip: 9. Any Colour You Like 8. Eclipse 7. On the Run 6. Money 5. Time 4. Breathe (In the Air) 3. Brain Damage 2. The Great Gig in the Sky 1. Us and Them Overall Notes: Another album that makes my insistence on ranking my 5 stars look silly because it's near impossible to separate these tracks. Masterpiece. Listened sober on my computer at my desk, listened on my earbuds while walking home, listened on a jukebox drunk at a bar, listened on vinyl high while watching the Wizard of Oz. Cinema every time.

sim

5 star

Trop bien vrailent, déja écouté et j'aime toujours autant. Chansons favorites : Time, Breathe, The great Gig in the sky, Eclipse.

An all-time classic. Love it.

Best album ever?

One of the greatest

Yes.

Do I really need to write a review on how amazing this album is?

A stone walled classic in every way. a hundred stars out of five.

I don't need to explain this one lol.

Timeless. Would be a 5 just for that guitar solo on Time. A musical highlight of mankind's time on earth thus far.

One of the best albums ever recorded

One of the perfect albums.

I went home for a bit. The local junior college, the I had attended a couple classes at years before, as the theater/film department was getting axed, hosted some kind of light show event at their observatory. My mom was interested: Me, my now-wife, and my parents headed there to see it. Turns out that along with the star-viewing party was a laser show accompanying Dark Side. I had, at that point, not listened to the album. I had, as far as I know, only heard Pink Floyd ambiently. My mom was underwhelmed. And, in a cliché, I was overwhelmed. It's not quite a masterpiece, but it is very, very good. Sounded like a warm fuzzy blanket the first time and still does. I don't think that the feeling is quaint, but if it is I don't care. The music doesn't overstay its welcome, it returns to its themes and motives on time, and it contains the appropriate amount of space for its title.

A simply stunning album. Epic

An amazing album that hits it's strde straight away and never lets down. My 2nd favourite Pink Floyd album.

I would give it 6 stars if I could

Amazing album, obvious why it's a classic. Great album to listen to closely or just have in the background.

I love everything about this album, even the stuff that I would hate if it was found elsewhere. You know why there's never been a good cover of Money? Because using cash register sounds in a song is stupid as hell, and only Pink Floyd can pull it off. Best track: Time

Better than I remembered it. I knew it was a great album, but this made me realize why it’s an icon. Not a wasted moment.

A true classic. Everyone should hear it even if they are not into the band.

Classic album. Cool cover too.

hermoso, perfecto. Experiencia increíble ame ame ame

Det ska sägas att jag verkligen inte är någon Pink Floyd-connoisseur, min tidigare erfarenhet av bandet är mycket begränsad, även om de verkar i en tid och en genre som jag annars älskar. Jag har självklart hört lovorden om detta album, hur det höjs till skyarna som ett att historiens främsta, och det har såklart påverkat min första, mer grundliga lyssning av det. Egentligen var mittenspåren, Time - The Great Gig in the Sky - Money, de enda jag hade hyfsad koll på inför lyssningen. Även om dessa låtar är fantastiska, var det därför låtar i början och slutet som fick mig att haja till. Först On the Run, som en instrumentell/experimentell rymdresa genom världens största lavalampa. På B-sidan fångades jag av Us and Them, av den livsviktiga saxofonen och bandet som går igång när Gilmour tar ton i andra halvorna av varje vers. Min första lyssning blev hackig och uppdelad, dels gjord i bilen på väg till covidvaccinering, och dels under en joggingtur. Känslan som dominerade då var att albumet, om än otroligt, saknar de absoluta höjdpunkterna som skulle göra det till en 5:a. Säkerligen var jag påverkad av den enorma hypen, och kunde inte riktigt höra vad alla andra har hört. Men, jag älskar konceptalbum, och vet att konceptalbum är gjorda för att sitta ner och genomföra en fokuserad lyssning, och det var just det jag gjorde dagen efter. Jag kan omöjligt vara kunnigare än musikhistoriens samlade kritikerkår; jag var tvungen att ge det en ärlig chans. När jag sedan satt där, jag hade gjort min research, jag följde med på Genius under varje låt, jag blundade under de viktigaste solona (Time!!), fick jag en helt annan upplevelse av ~helheten~. Det är klart att jag saknade några tydliga höjdpunkter när hela albumet, hela konceptet är en enda lång höjdpunkt, ett privilegium. Samtidigt så angeläget och genomtänkt - hur albumet behandlar livet, tiden, konsumtion, psykisk ohälsa, själva existensen - och samtidigt så extremt virtuost och exceptionellt musikaliskt genomfört. Om jag inte ger The Dark Side Of The Moon fem stjärnor, hur ska jag då någonsin kunna ge något annat album fem stjärnor? Bästa låt: Jag har nyss tjatat om att helheten och konceptet är det viktiga, men då det är skitnödigt att säga "hela albumet" säger jag Time. Den är bäst.

Ja, vad ska man säga... Jag tyckte @fanten210hours sade det bra: "Om inte detta album förtjänar en 5:a, hur ska man då någonsin kunna ge ut en 5:a?". Yttersta världsklass. Albumomslaget är t.o.m. jävligt coolt också... Det är bara ett komplett album på alla sätt. Bäst: "Time"

One of the most influential albums in my musical taste. Will always love this one, and never a bad excuse to listen to it again

Always loved it, still do!

I hope I have more surprises as this continues. I just happened to have listened to this already today. Naturally one of the all time best albums, must be heard start to finish.

Pure nostalgi

Ha. As though I'm going to add anything interesting to the history of reviews of this album.

Phenomenal album. My favourite of all time.

10/10 all time classic

Don’t need to listen to it again. This album is an experience and I very much like it in it’s entirety.

amazing

Fantastic album.

This album is so good! This and Wish You Were Here were the albums that introduced me to progressive rock and I've never found a genre so interesting in my life. I love all of the songs on this album but my favourites are Money, Time, Us and Them, Breathe (In The Air) and The Great Gig In The Sky. 5/5 stars.

This is one of my all-time favorite albums, from one of my all-time favorite bands. I can't say how many times I have heard this album. I will listen to this album again. You should listen to this album with headphones on, the way it was meant to be.

I'm not sure what else you could want here, unless you take issue with concept albums or the cliche of "OMG dark side is the greatest ever." The second half of the album is right up with anything else ever, for me though.

I can't tell you how many times I've listened to this album, it's a masterpiece. Automatic 5.

Masterpiece.

Awesome, a modern classic, never goes out of vogue!

Flott album! Aldri hørt om Pink Floyd, men tror han kan ta av om et par år as. Beste sanger: Time, Great Gig In The Sky, Brain Damage / Eclipse

An incredible album. I need to get the vinyl

Tror dette var første gang jeg hørte på albumet på løpetur, og "On the Run" fikk passende nok en helt ny dimensjon når stegene mine var helt synkronisert med rytmen og synthen pulserte gjennom finstadskogen i skumringen. Ellers er det fortsatt et sykt bra album, er ikke så mye mer å si om det

Just as great on 4/21 as on 4/20.

Блять, да пускай этот альбом будет первым во всех возможных топах. Он даже на 81-м месте в топе Metal Hummer был. И там пускай будет. И вот кто хочет начать музыкальное просвещение - пущай слушают. И выкупают за эту призму с радугой. И похуй, что мне Wish You Were Here нравится, возможно, больше. Я и ему 5 ёбну и остальным, если попадутся. Ну разве что не первому, ладно, там душилово ебаное. Охуенный альбом, для своего времени вообще кровь-кишки-распидорасило, ныне не слушается старпёрским калом от слова совсем. Разнообразный, умный, мелодичный, яркий, запоминающийся, эмоциональный... внятный. Ясен хуй, что не могу уже так залипать, как лет 7 назад, когда на плеер впервые загнал. Но я спустя столько времени, собсна, ни во что залипать не могу. Да и чё это за хуйня, что если восторг настоящий - он должен тянуться всю жизнь? Не, всё, раз словил, ставится печать "10 из 10, боже мой, 10 из 10". Кроме там отдельных случаев, когда себя уличаешь в явной незрелости пиздюческой. И пускай призма с радугой остаётся "символом настоящей музыки". И пускай до сих пор дифирамбы поют. Потому что альбом охуенный. Комплексный и доступный. Альбом - феномен. А занижать за оверхайпнутость - значит опускать до просто отличных, крепких альбомов. А это вообще низость какая-то. Думаю, в этом случае даже можно привести цитату Стива Бушеми: "Опуская альбом, ты опускаешь себя...".

El principio del álbum me hace bajarle la calificación. Fuera de ello, es simplemente magnífico y aqui se encuentran otras obras cúspide de la banda.

Dark side of the moon, timeless.

This is one of the best albums of all time. It flows seamlessly from song to song, and is immaculately produced. It's hard to Beat this. Favorite Song: Time, Any Color You Want

Really experiential record to listen to. The lyrics seem timeless, as David Gilmour and Roger Waters guide you through life. From the second track "Breathe", a track that deals with birth and the lessons we teach children, to the final few tracks when the album comes full circle, as "Any Colour You Like", "Brain Damage" and "Eclipse" work as a study on death. Hard to argue with an album that still sounds as sonically fresh as Dark Side of the Moon. Fav Tracks: "Breathe", "Brain Damage", "Eclipse", and "The Great Gig In the Sky" Rating 4.5/5

One of the best

One of, if not the best record of all time. Great Gig in the Sky is a little bit overrated as a single but Money & Time make up for it. Incredible album.

A proper album. Not just a collection of songs. Us & Them onwards was the 5* kicker.

Epic album. Individual songs tied together with the themes and flow between them. Musicianship, lyrics, it has it all (except On The Run which I hope David Gilmour regrets).

day 1, good start :)

I really enjoyed the opportunity to listen to this for the first time, and it won’t be the last I don’t think. Also the experiences of them experimenting with sound I liked.

never heard of it

I wish I knew how good this album was sooner.

Incredible

Fine album with some iconic songs that have stood the test of time.

false

Unlike "Wish You Were Here", this one has more content to listen to, and it's really good.

Another classic

always awesome in their own unique way

Exceptional album. Would listen to again and again.

iconic

Excellent the best from pink floyd

Every song is a great song. Sound effects, voice and themes.

What's the point of re-listening right now? I already know this one's a goat.

dunyanın en iyi albumu

From the transition from the intro into the second song, I was hooked. Stunned that I’ve never listened to this before. Glad that I have now.

What else can someone say that hasn’t been said?

C'mon guys...

Disco más importante de Pink Floyd.

C I N C O de maio

If not the best Pink Floyd album then definitely top 3.

A classic, always love to listen to this.

One of the most great albums ever produced. Revolutionized the whole psychedelic rock scene.

Nothing new to add here, absolutely beautiful

A classic, not much to say that you need to listen to it at least once regardless if you think you won't like it.

Perfection. Genius. Masterpiece.

This album really is an incredible work of art. The flow of the album is great, there is wonderful use of non-instrument elements (the alarm clocks are brilliant even if they startle me every time), and it is one of those albums that just feels good to listen all the way through. Favorite tracks: the only ones I would exclude from this are the ones like “Speak To Me” where they really aren’t tracks that would ever get played in their own. Thoroughly enjoy this whole album.

Frigging awesome!

You know. I probably listened to this album close to 500 times when I was in high school. It's hard to divorce those feelings from my mind. The soundscape boiling away my resentment. Transporting my addled mind to a faraway place where I can't hear what's in-between the headphones. I can't give this anything less than perfection

I mean!!!!

Are you kidding lol

Nothing really to be said that hasn't been said before. Great record, and tight. Unlike some of their others.

Lay up. Still listen to this on the reg. Still hasn't gotten old.

The best side of the moon, if you ask me.

I have massive nostalgia for this from my uni days which gets it 5 stars. I thiiiink I might still give it 5 stars even hearing it for the first time? It's just a fantastic example of prog. Songs going off in unexpected directions and blending into each other. Sound effects and samples amplifying the ambient qualities. Clare Torry's outstanding vocal performance. I love it all. Fave track - it doesn't really make sense to pick one fave track as a lot of the appeal of the album is how things flow into each other? "Speak to Me" -> "Breathe" -> "On the Run" is great. "Time" -> "The Great Gig In The Sky" is magnificent - I guess this is my fave track pick... "Brain Damage" -> "Eclipse" gives me triumphant chills every time!

Just awesome

One of my favorite albums of all time.

10/10

one of the best albums ever made. period.

All time best

Classic, highlight track - Time

The best.

An incredible album with greater relevance and musical influence than I had originally thought. More than just an iconic cover

masterpiece!

this album deserves the hype, the songs match the theme/energy of the album so well

This is dark side of the moon after all

Was actually able to pull out an LP to listen to this one. What more could be said about it at this point?

Well... yeah

10/5. 'Nuff said.

Greatest. Best of the best.

Um dos melhores albums de todos os tempos.

Top 10 all time

Fav Song: Any Colour You Like

Very cool. I can see why it's a rock classic.

nice

Culte et excellent.

I don't think there's anything I can say that hasn't been said before. An absolute masterpiece of songwriting, performance, and production.

There's not much to be said that hasn't already been said, this is one of the best albums of all time, a perfectly packaged concept album that never feels boring or dull and that was groundbreaking back then and still is almost 50 years onwards

Classic.

1 star, the song speak to me is an anthemic banger but the rest of it was ded.

I love it.

No notes needed.

Pretty ponderous album with some great songs on it amongst the filler

I bet this would be fun if listened to backwards…

Dare i say a good album. I can get why it has its rep

Sure, why not.

Je suis pas fan du fait que Robert Dimery mette plusieurs albums d'un seul artistes dans sa liste, mais après tant d'albums complètement osef, je suis bien content de tomber sur du Pink Floyd (je crois que c'est le cinquième album, ça fait beaucoup). Et c'est du Pink Floyd, quoi. Plus accessible que certains autres albums, mais toujours recherché, toujours riche en belles mélodies, je me le prendrai un jour en dur, celui-là.

Some really good tracks on this album, liked it better than the wall

This was actually my first time listening to this entire album in one sitting, which was surprising since I had never done that before. Of course I was familiar with most of the songs on here. There were a couple that I didn't recall hearing before but it is just such an artistic masterpiece. It's great. I personally don't care for the keyboards much. I don't like the full psychedelic keyboards but the guitar work and the other instruments are just absolutely beautiful. Lyric-wise it's great. Vocals are great so I actually may like this more than The Wall. Great album

The sound feels very immersive, and like you're being taken with them, and the sounds are very unique within the album, it almost feels like you're in a movie experiencing the finding of a jewel in Indiana Jones. Also, something about the vocals is so addictive; whatever drugs they were on really worked. Also, hello, the transitions I didn't even notice the change from Time to Great Gig in the Sky until I heard that iconic build-up.

Arguably the single-most recognizable album of all-time. While it's not Pink Floyd's greatest work, it is still one of their better works, and has some phenomenal stand-out tracks such as Time, The Great Gig in the Sky, and Money. TDSOTM has been a classic prog and psychedelic rock since its release, and holds up to this day. Favorite Song: Money Score: 88/100

WOW

thought this was gonna be overrated but it met my expectations

Strong 4, quite epic

Classic

I got about 5 seconds in, and was blasted in the face by "Oh, I've definitely heard this before". One of the albums I heard often at home as a kid. Very good.

Listened to this album in my car with a broken ac instead of my usual Sennheisers. I experienced a lotta sounds and tiny easter eggs. Like the best at the first track was the ending on the last track. Breathe in the air was soo nice to hear yk. And the next track where I heard train approaching, the vocals of the singer and stuff then came the time track where at first it was like my alarm went off or like a 10s of alarms went off, but like then I understood ok iv heard of this before. Then I just knew the next track would be great gig in the sky which I discovered back in 2021 I think while tryna select a song for a post for my cousins instagram. Anyways some songs were over 6 minutes which is kinda adverse for my depreciating attention span but I was patient and i got through it. No complaints even tho I don't understand what's like the GOAT opinion on this about cuz i didn't feel like it. It's good it's nice i heard a lotta new sounds, textures but that's about it for me. Music is definitely subjective but yeah I will have to liste n to this one again with the headphones.

Speak to me - na Breathe (in the air) - 4 On the run - 3 Time - 5 The great gig in the sky - 3 Money - 5 Us and them - 4 Any colour you like - 4 Brain damage - 5 Eclipse - 4

woahh woahhh woaaaaahhhhh ahhhhhhhhhh oooooaoaohahah

I always avoided Pink Floyd based on the kind of kids that were into them in the 90s. This was actually very enjoyable, if at times over-indulgent.

I’ve never consciously listened to pink Floyd . My dad wasn’t a fan and I never did enough drugs to organically find my way to them. I’ve caught a bit through being British but have not listened to an album all the way through. That said, I do dig this. Weird, complex, yet still quite listenable. Kinda reminds me of Tyler the creator in a weird way (he seems to be to rap what PF are to rock.)

Cool. The long songs merge together to make the album one big experience. Probably not an everyday listen for me, but a background listen on long work days, perhaps.

Blart Side of the Mall in which Paul Blart Mall Cop perfectly syncs up with this album

Otherworldly

Muy bueeeeno, tiene temones

Full of hits. I've got to be in a much more chill state to tolerate all the instrumental tracks. Skipped most of them on my listen today because I wasn't feeling it, but they're not bad.

Heard before?:✔️ Will listen again?:✔️

Decent listen

you know I listened to this a few times in middle and high school, did the wizard of Oz thing etc etc and never really loved it. but it's quite an easy listen and I honestly found it much more enjoyable than expected. of course it's a classic but I wasn't sure how much of that was boomer nostalgia and hype vs how much was merited

echt heel goed, maar niet beste pink floyd album

For my money, the closest thing there is to a greatest album ever made. It checks all of the boxes: commercial success (tens of millions sold, stayed on the top charts for literal decades,) critical acclaim (still finds itself in the top 5-10 albums lists over half a century later,) and a lasting legacy (among the most influential releases when it comes to atmospheric anything, huge universal themes that listeners connect to instantly.) I would say that the one thing that takes away from Dark Side of the Moon is that only about half of the tracks are full songs. The rest are interludes extended to full-length songs, so the album takes a little while to get going and to end after that absolute all-timer of a middle section, which holds all the gold at the end of the rainbow depicted on the cover. Seriously, "Time," "Great Gig," "Money" and "Us and Them" all consecutively is among the best sequencing I've ever heard on an album. The production is also virtually timeless, with only minor tweaks and adjustments having been made over the past several decades. Pink Floyd's legacy is made and broken by this album, and no amount of Roger Waters' political stunts and Gilmour-less redux albums will ever take away from this album's immense legacy. A Voyager record in itself. Key Tracks: Breathe (In the Air,) Money, Us and Them, Brain Damage

People have written better songs than The Dark Side of the Moon, but no one has created a recording that *sounds* better or more expensive

Another classic, classic album

A space journey with earthly baggage.

Is it a masterpiece? Undeniably. Is it a pivotal moment for music production? Absolutely. Is it good? Of course. Is it perfect? No, not quite. This album is so good at its core, but the overproduction in some places, while it keeps you hooked, makes it hard to give this a 5.

(Decent 8/10) A pretty good album, it's got a great flow and provides a satisfying holistic listen. It is a tad overrated to me, but I honestly get why it gets the praise it does.

Not sure it lived up to the expectations but nonetheless still good. 4/5

Een plaat die objectief goed klinkt, maar mij nergens echt weet te verrassen of te pakken

it's a good album sir they have better ones though

this is what the void sounds like to me. space and time exhibition in its finest form favorite song: time

4/7

yeah pink floyd are a good band

chunky and epic. feels longer than it is. maybe if i was blitzed it'd feel like i was seeing across the universe; as it is it's just great. Time through to Money is a terrific bit of music. solid 4

Personal enjoyment: 4/5 Relevance to this list 5/5

I simultaneously think this is an excellent record and this band is overloved.

Already listened.

A really good classic rock album. I know of the band and heard of the album (but mostly seen the album art) but never listened to it myself until today. Its a lot softer and slower than I was expecting. Having a live B-side is something I always enjoy as well. No songs stood out to me they were all good and easy to listen to and I think I will have to listen through again to see if there are any that I want to keep coming back for.

Класика, але не мій улюблений альбом ПФ, тому поставлю 4.

This is your sign to drop acid and sync this album up to Paul Blart Mall Cop 2

Great highs (money, time). Suffers from being too popular, doesn't sound unique. Doesn't push the boat too much, they were capable of so much more. Its a fun album, a little boring some times and a bit annoying at points.

8 из 10

Not much wrong with this classic album, although I prefer to listen to Animals.

The Wall was a bad introduction to Pink Floyd for me, this was a far better one. Lush production and very pleasant to listen to, but there is still something missing here to push it to a 5 for me

some parts are really epic and majestic

I thought I knew this album. Turns out I only knew its reputation. Listening late at night, on headphones, it is a whole other experience. It is still groundbreaking and earth-shattering 60 years on? Perhaps not - this is well-worn territory now, and so many bands have built on DSOTM and taken it in different directions. But gee whiz you can absolutely see why it blew everyone's mind in 1973.

yeah, its pretty good. In my current context it doesn't particularly speak to me on any emotional level. That being said, the musicianship is at peak performance and I am made into happy lil fella anytime the piano on this album shows up, it's utterly beautiful. "Money" is such a fucking funny song because it is fantastic single, but whenever it comes on during this album I am completely taken out of the vibe. But honestly, it probably is a necessary break from the ambience of this album so the first and second half don't blend together too much. Iconic riff though. This is a great album, but also the least I've had to say about an album so far. 4/5 This shit probably went fucking crazy in the 70s

I know this album is massive and loved by all, but I don’t know if I can get through this. I am listening. I’m surprised him many songs I’ve heard but didn’t know the name of. I saw Pink Floyd live in the 90s. I’ve seen PinkFloyd laser shows. I just never have a desire to listen to a Pink Floyd album. The music is really phenomenal on this album. No matter how I feel about Pink Floyd, I will always enjoy “Money”. What a great bass line and swing. I have honesty thought for years that “brain damage” was called “dark side of the moon”😂

Already heard, very good

. .

I've of course heard of this album and heard Money many times, but never listened to the whole thing. This was a jam! It felt timeless and I really enjoyed it.

This album is kind of timeless to me. It just exists on its own, always has and always will. It's almost like it's not good or bad, it just is. It is Dark Side of the Moon, and I don't necessarily "love it", but I definitely do keep coming back to it. Maybe simply because it's such an undeniable force in the history of music that is relevant to our generation.

The legacy of some art is as much a millstone as a pedestal. Dark Side of the Moon has sold a zillion copies and is THE iconic album from one of the titans of 20th century rock. I heard *about* this album for years before I actually *heard* it. In most cases that kind of buildup skews expectations, but by the time I finally listened to Dark Side, I already knew Pink Floyd wasn't my thing. Later, under the influence of shrooms at age 19, I felt like I finally understood it. I am a cliché. These days I appreciate that it's an artistic triumph, finely crafted and executed, yada yada...but probably not something I'd revisit on my own. I liked it fine, which is practically an endorsement considering my history.

wtf cette toune la vient de ce gars la

Well produced album. Classic guitar driven album. Worth the hype,

I felt like I was transitioning into each song. It just made sense

I've attempted to listen to this album multiple times. Earliest would have been in the early 2000s when I was a teenager. I didn't understand the hype and I think listening to this before my 20s did it a disservice. I remember finding it strange and the coin sounds in Money were corny. I knew nothing of the history of music production so just expected something that would be life changing based on the hype. I tried multiple times since then and also found it a let down. I'm older now and I think the album has definitely grown on me. I appreciate the flow of the album and how well produced it is but you need to go in with 1973 ears and even then I still think it's been overhyped. It's a great album. It is not the greatest album of all time. 4/5.

Me gustó, nunca lo había escuchado

This was a really interesting album. I don't think there will ever be anything in their discography that makes me a huge 'fan' of them or makes me listen to their music in large quantities, but this is something that I would be happy to listen to if someone put it on. I feel crazy for saying this, but I kind of expected more. Pictures of this album are plastered EVERYWHERE, and whenever anyone mentions great albums or the best albums of all time, this one always seems to make the list. But if I were to compare this to another album that has the same sort of commercial coverage, like 'Thriller', I would have to say that this album appears slightly disappointing to me. Yes, I enjoyed the tracks, but there weren't many special moments for me. There were one or two moments of 'oh wow, that was really lovely', but not enough for me to regard this as highly as many people think I probably should do. I can understand why people enjoy this, and why it is influential of its time period, but I think that maybe compared to some of their other stuff, it just isn't doing it for me. But nonetheless, I thought a lot of this was interesting, and I absolutely loved the vocals, especially in 'The Great Gig in the Sky'. A highlight of most Pink Floyd music I have listened to has to be the instrumental section. This alone is amazing, and I would have probably been happier with a Pink Floyd instrumental album. For example, yes, the cinematic synth sounds are gorgeous, but I love how beautiful the introduction of the saxophone is in 'Us and Them'. I feel if it wasn't for the beauty of the instrumentation, this would probably get less than 4 stars from me. Favourite lyric: 'Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it... You've gotta go sometime.' ('The Great Gig in the Sky') Favourites (in order): Us and Them Breathe (In the Air) The Great Gig in the Sky Money

Chill and cool

love when you know an album is meant to be listened from the beginning to the end just the way it is. still i get why its a classic!

One rule I made up for myself is regardless of whether or not I was familiar with an album I would still listen to it all the way through when assigned. I was regretting my rule with this album because I had simply just heard it so many times and wasn't really in the mood for listening to it. It comes with baggage of a bunch of extraneous life experience. The album cover is probably one of the most iconic images associated with music. That was my default hooded sweatshirt I wore freshmen year in highschool. This was decades after the album came out and I wasn't really a super fan. In the teenage process of assembling some form of identity I landed on 'I like music' and this was one of those albums that was supposed to blow your mind. I checked out The Wall movie from my library and had the blacklight poster of the walking hammers. Now over 25 years later in my 2026 mindset it's the 'mind expanding' soundtrack for the most closed minded people I know. That's not a generalized dig at fans, just in my life experience. Trying to set the stage that I was hostile to listening to the album and it still was pretty good. The recording quality is fantastic. I don't have the patience for all of the concept album components but damn if they didn't make a great song to remind you of time slipping past you. That one ages fantastically while I do the opposite. I think it's definitely an album to listen to before you die. I'm not going to stand by every track on here individually but this list is albums.

> 1001 Albums - Day 1 # **Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon (1973)** | First Listen 1. Speak To Me - 7/10 | nice theme to start off the album 2. Breathe (In the Air) - 7/10 | the vocals coming in at halfway was a choice 3. On the Run - 8/10 | interesting track i like the experimental of it all 4. Time - 9/10 | that intro was a jumpscare 5. The Great Gig in the Sky - 9/10 ❤️ | heard the section about 1:00 before, insane runs throughout the WHOLE TRACK? 6. Money - 8/10 | didn't feel the vibe much 7. Us and Them - 10/10 ❤️ 8. Any Colour You Like - 8/10 9. Brain Damage - 10/10 ❤️ 10. Eclipse - 9/10 | that loop back was perfect Notes: i can see why this is one of the most worldwide recognized albums, it has a lot of creative choices i didn't really think about first because as this is my first listen of the album i don't have the full picture of it all. i found it interesting how nearly half of the record is instrumental, i loved the transitions from song to song, this was a very interesting album listen. truly recommend 85/100.

I don't get Pink Floyd, but I do appreciate this album. ★★★★

Crazy first pull Took me way too long to realize that my speakers aren't quiet, and "Speak to Me" just starts really quietly "Breathe (In the Air)" is nostalgic for me. My mom likes to play it a lot. I'm now realizing I haven't properly listened through this album ever though, because that transition into - - "On the Run" is really clean. Love that. Kinda feeling cyberpunky with this one. Not really a song I'd add to a playlist, but cool as a transition/interlude. "Time" is another song that's nostalgic for me. Really pretty, something wistful about it. Love the choir in it too, makes it a lot grander than I think it would have been otherwise. Side note, I'm writing this while sitting at my computer. I'm sure this would hit way harder if I was on a road trip on a long summer day after some mildly life-changing event. Alas, it's only slightly warm outside and I have things to work on at home. "The Great Gig in the Sky" hnnnnggggg unnnhhhhh yesss mmmmhmmmm yummmmm. "Money" is fun. Just feels like good rock honestly. Maahhnaaaiiiiyayyyyyy. Ohhh I reallyyyy like "Us and Them". I haven't heard this one before, but the soft trumpet leading in is so pretty. This space between psychedelic, rock, and (very light) jazz is exactly the kind of- OHHHH WOAAHHH WOAAAHH IM ASCENDING WAAAAAAHHHH. If I heard that live I probably would start sobbing. "Any Colour You Like" is vibey... but for some reason it just feels like a watered down version of "Us and Them". As an ending track I'd probably like it a lot more, but we have two more tracks to go. "Brain Damage" drops the album name lets gooo. I enjoy this one a lot for a reason I can't place a finger on, especially leading into- -"Eclipse". This second half of the album I was far less familiar with, but I'm so impressed. It's hit after hit. Honestly, everything after "Money" feels like its own entity. I wish the rest of the album resonated in that way for me. This album is a 4/5 for me. I think it's objectively really good, and I would be happy to hear it played somewhere. I understand completely why it's considered a classic and the best album of all time for many people. I probably just wouldn't reach for it unless I'm in a super specific mood. Maybe I lack taste. That being said, there are definitely songs on here that are a 5/5 for me, like "Breathe", "Us and Them", and "Great Gig". Two of them aren't new to me though, so maybe I'm biased. I'll probably give the album another listen when I'm in a different mood, it might grow on me more. A final note, this album has been inciting existential dread in me this whole time. No idea what that's about.

Have not listened to this in full in close to 40 years. It's not something I think I'll ever really listen to regularly again, but is undeniably a great listen once in a while.. There's a reason this is an album EVERYONE already knows. Totally forgot about the sexy sax on Us and Them.

Probably one of the top 3 most essential albums of all time. Has great run from start to finish and manages to keep your attention until the very end. 8/10

Pink Floyd is truly one of those bands that people really love or really hate, I've discovered lately. Personally, I enjoyed this album. This was the first album I ever listened to from Pink Floyd growing up (they were much earlier than me in existence). I enjoy their experimentation and their prog elements. I like that they weren't doing the same thing as contemporary acts, and Money was the first song on bass I learned, so this one is personal. That said, I'm trying to give this a listen as if I wasn't familiar with it. I'm not Pink Floyd's biggest fan nor their biggest hater. I enjoyed this sonic journey back in time.

Before this project began, I listened to Dark Side of the Moon on headphones for the first time. Perhaps absorbing it “the right way” made the album’s sonic wonders and creativity stand out more in the past. The session gave me a greater appreciation for Floyd’s musicality. Like its fellow 1973 Innervisions, Dark Side of the Moon’s inventiveness,while being a massive success, is stunning. For an album filled with ominous keyboards, dispirited vocals and pained existential void lyrics to be one of the biggest selling records seems unfathomable. Each member of the group contributes to the startling soundscape, with Nick Mason’s drums and other percussion particularly standing out on these recent listens. Mason delivers the proverbial master class in how to not overplay, but still stand out. While only “Money” has hit single top qualities, other songs provide memorable moments that account for its success. The breathy vocals on “Us and Them”, the clocks on “Time” and the wordless gospel singing throughout “Great Gig in the Sky” all lodged into my brain. Pink Floyd’s slow churn and grim view of the world, with its industrial meets space sound is not typical rock and roll. I need something with more of a human touch to place it in my personal pantheon, but I can fully understand anyone who lauds it as one of the great records of any era.

An excellent overal album and the reason Pink Floyd went on to become of one the most overrated bands. Great Gig in the Sky is among the top vocal performances in rock history.

Puedo entender por qué todo el mundo habla de este álbum. Está muy bien y tiene mucha cohesión. No es algo que escucharía en bucle, pero wow.

It deserves the hype, but it's not perfect. Some songs (in my opinion, On The Run), don't really serve a huge purpose and are just there for run time. I think Money is a bit overdone, but it's fun the first time you listen to it. Will revisit for sure, but it's mainly just a me thing that I'm not as ecstatic as everyone else about this album.

this album was probably the first album to have cha ching sounds. so thats important. but, jokes aside, its a great album and its experimental and satisfying. i get why people lost their minds about it.

Way better than "Wish You Were Here!" Atmospheric and enjoyable at least.
