1. us and them 2. great gig in the sky 3. brain damage hm: time
Fabuleux! Comme toujours même après 100 écoutes!
Arguably the greatest rock album of all time, nothing more can be said
(tomei a decisão diferente de escutar diretamente no LP, tendo em vista que eu to na casa de mamãe essa semana, e num é todo dia que dá pra torar um disco desse site numa mídia diferente) bem, eu cresci escutando pink floyd kkkkk meus pais tinham todos os LPs e vários CDs, e minha diversão de domingo era botar o dark side of the moon e ficar olhando pro nada escutando ele acho que devem ter uns 15 anos que eu n escutava esse completo??? incrivelmente, é tão bizarro de bom quanto eu lembrava que fosse
vou emoldurar um quadro desse aqui quando passar dos 40+ e botar na minha sala. é uma tradição que não podemos deixar morrer. dito isso, eh a primeira vez que escuto esse aqui inteiro. pink floyd nunca foi mto minha pira. mas esse album eh realmente muito bom? um progzinho mais lento, mas não cansativo. só pedrada atrás de pedrada. vou escutar mais vezes, fiquei até interessado em fragar outros albuns. é bem decente mesmo. que doideira.
Was alright
Αναγνωρίζω ότι είναι κλασικό άλμπουμ και απο τα καλύτερα ροκ, ωστόσο αυτό τo rating δεν είναι αντικειμενικό. Ακόμα και αν μου άρεσε ιδιαίτερα δεν με συγκίνησε δυστηχώς. Money
An all time great listening experience.
Literally nothing can be added here. There are a handful of universal 5* albums on the list.
I don't have any particular connection to it so it doesn't land for me in the same way it seems to for so many others but it's certainly enjoyable. One of the better prog albums for sure
3.5/5 https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/pink-floyd/the-dark-side-of-the-moon/ I just really don’t care. Shoot me, I guess, but it’s just so boring. I would really like to experience this in the way almost everyone else seems to, but I just can’t understand it. Guess it’s a me problem.
10/10
Didn't actually listen to this because I've already heard it a bunch, but yeah, pretty good it turns out.
I mean, duh
Classic
Iconic for a reason, the transitions between songs are so satisfying.
The only one so far that actually must be heard before you die
C’mon. This album is GOATed for a reason or 100. I listened again today even though I heard it a million times as a stoned 15-year-old. And you know what? I heard even more experimentation and forward-looking musical elements (electronic in 1973?!) than I appreciated way back when. It still sounds peerless. The definition of a 5.
Complete album experience. There are stand out hits, but listening top to bottom is a great adventure.
There's nothing more to say about this masterpiece. A must listen for every one.
this is already one of my faviorites of all time obv 5/5
10/10!!! One of the best albums of all time - they don’t make ‘em like this anymore.
What more is there to say that hasn't been said a million times before? This album rules from start to finish. Quintessential rock.
Is any other rating an option? I mean it is a bit pretentious in parts but we'll forgive it......
Everybody had a copy of this album when I was young, because it's so good!
Dark side is the wall’s antithesis, it rejects bloat and narrative shoehorning in favour of a tight, direct and purposeful tracklist of a prog all timers
An easy 5 and for good reason. There are definitely other albums I enjoy listening to more than this but I don’t know if there is an album I think is more impressive in its creativity and execution and still is widely enjoyed by all kinds of people. This album will stand the test of time.
really enjoyable journey
Saying that this is the best album out there isn’t even an opinion, it’s a fact
Masterpiece
What can I say about this perfect record that hasn't been said already.
I like ‘Wish You Were Here’ and ‘the Wall’ better, but this album is still a 5.
It brought me back to a place I forgot.
I love this album. It’s actually in frequent rotation along with Wish You Were Here. I love this period of Floyd. It helps that my dad also loved this period of Floyd as did my husband’s parents. What you hear as a kid affects you. This album had a big effect on my future musical inclinations, and when we rediscovered it, well, it was magic. So it has to be 5 stars. It’s in the category of desert island 5 star albums. I don’t just appreciate it, I listen to it a lot and would be sad if I couldn’t hear it again.
i cant give it lower than 5 stars. hate roger waters but damn does he make good art
Sit by the fire and smoke music. Some of this collection feels like an acid trip. The background additions and choices make what could be a boring song haunting and deep. Again it is hard to separate nostalgia for me. It’s all connected.
The Dark Side of the Moon is the first album that made me realize that an album can be a full cohesive concept and not just a collection of songs. I'd listened to albums before of course especially growing up with The Beatles, but this one was the first that was the most compelling to me. This album just completely blew my mind the first time I listened to it, and for a period of time, it was all I listened to. It was entirely different from anything I'd listened to before, and I completely fell in love with it. It is this magnificent expression of life and death, from its everyday dread to its existential divinity. It is a cosmic experience, and its influence and its beauty can not be overstated. A perfect album from beginning to end.
Coming to terms with the fact I just don’t really fuck with Pink Floyd too much
I like the more atmospheric bits of this a lot more than I like songs like "Time" or "Money", but it's still a pretty great album. Pink Floyd has never really been my thing outside of this, but finding an old copy of this at the secondhand record store just felt so right, and that's the only way I listen to it these days. Perfect for when you want to imagine yourself floating out in space.
i did like it, but just a little
A calming and also unsettling listen, music that will lull you into a peaceful place then wake you up to some unique sounds that almost make you uncomfortable. It’s a classic for a reason , with a brilliant sound to it. I can see why this is such a beloved album. Great for all occasions.
Last few songs were very good
one of the greatest albums!
you could make whatever you want in the 70s i guess
I'm supposed to get high and listen to THIS while I watch the Wizard of Oz? Crazy
Fuck yes. I kinda needed this today. I love Pink Floyd, and this is not my favorite record of theirs (although it's not far off from Wish You Were Here). But there is a lot of nostalgia wrapped up in this record for me, and I would think that it's pretty hard to argue that this is something of a landmark achievement. Really, this is one of the easiest 5-star ratings to dole out. 10/10
Several of their big hits, fairly mellow psych rock
Probably the best rock album of all time. Nothing more to say.
Magico
Essential. 10/10
I'm not sure what to think of this album, really. On one hand, it's a classic. So many iconic tracks and extremely innovative for the time. No one was doing prog/art rock like Pink Floyd was doing (except for maybe Yes) at such scale and with such renown. But one the other hand, there's a lot of noodling about on this album. This is a personal opinion of mine but some tracks went on for far too long. 'On The Run', for example, did nothing for me. Just noise. I did like how the latter half of the album had each song seamlessly going into one another. I like when albums do that but here it was impossible for me to pick out when songs changed. Anyways, more cool riffs and less jamming imo. These guys would've sounded insane to hear live for sure. And what a memorable album cover too. Hipgnosis was ahead of its time. Favourite tracks: Breath (In The Air), Time, The Great Gig in the Sky, Any Colour You Like 3.5/5
From start to finish, on of the best albums ever. It’s genre crossing and only gets better with time. No pun intended.
It has been a while since I listened to this album. It was excellent.
Is real good. i heard part of everywhere so felt a Lil off ,but due to my stupidity can't blame em
love pink floyd the best
Mi favorito en el momento

11 April 2026. 20pm. 9,5/10
What more is there to say that hasn't been said over and over? This album is a classic and for good reason.
One of the easier 5s I will ever give. An operatic space odyssey of epic proportions. It’s personally offensive how much the song “Time” is currently my life. I remember listening to it ten years ago and it affecting me, and ten years later all that’s changed is that the “ten years” line is literally accurate now. Anyway, this album so effectively describes the human experience I doubt anyone could listen to it without relating to it intensely. I had a good day yesterday, though. The album is just telling me to live as if I have a purpose, and I will try my best to obey.
!!!
Tremendo discos para escuchar "relajado". Eran ciertos los rumores de años y años.
Me gustó mucho!!!!
Inefable.
Bah banger hein je pense que c'est difficile de conclure autre chose
Banger J’ai voulu le réécouter mais en fait… je le connais très bien. L’ambiance est vraiment top, un peu « cloud »
Une bonne redécouverte, The Great Gig in the Sky est une de mes chansons préférées mais ya trop de "blancs" dans l'album pour que je donne un 5
i really have to be around it a lot to really like it
Perfect album
Lite å si som ikke har blitt sagt en million ganger før. Dette er bra saker.
Fantastisk gjenhør!
Ingen over ingen under, har du problemer med dette tar du feil.
Hørte mye PF i tenårene. Var forsåvidt fint å høre igjen denne, men kjedet meg litt.
Der va den. Veldig bra album, men også verdens mest oppskrytte. Ikke på min topp tre fra PK.
Hørt hjemme i senga en kveld. Faen så bra dette er.
Variert og dypt, både musikalsk og lyrisk. Mye å legge merke til og oppdage underveis. Gleder meg til å høre det igjen om x antall år.
The best album ever recorded. What a treat.
Absolutely terrible production and little to no effort in the songs Do not recommend if you don't like slow songs that lack effort and production Though this album is seen as a "timeless classic" for me this will only be memorable because of how bad it is Though people may adore this album and pink Floyd's music this album isn't for me which leads me to giving it a 1/10 as it had potential but didn't reach it at all It's like shit to my ears
muy bueno, había canciones que ya conocía, volvería a escuchar pero no todas
maybe if i listen to it again it will stick but honestly i don't get it.
Jeg har aldrig været stor fan af Pink Floyd, men kvaliteten og betydningen må respekteres. Jeg vil ikke være på tværs og kalde det over-hyped, ellers var det blevet en 3'er
Insta-5 incoming. Ren teater. 100% nostalgi 🥲 Mest sammensatte og velkomponeret album so far med så mange fede overgange og lyde fra "den virkelige verden"! Fænomenale basgange. Fuck hvor er "Us and Them" bare et kunstværk altså 🙄
Et masterpiece, no doubt. Personligt rører det mig ikke, men den musikhistoriske betydning kan ikke overdrives.
*93 Soundtrack til at være hjemme hos måtter i Nørre Vilstrup. Jeg ville ønske, at jeg kunne give det mindre, bare for at være lidt på tværs, men det er jo unægtelig forrygende godt. Første back-to-back 5-stjerners anmeldelse. Håber på flere :-)
Et virkelig helstøbt album med nogle ALVORLIGE bangers. Der er dog passager, som for mig bliver lige lange nok - bl.a. synes jeg at et track som "on the run" kunne udelades helt uden at gøre skade. Til trods for den lille kritik er det svært at pille ned. Vi er på den helt store klinge her. 4,9 bliver til 5 gode stjerner
GOAT
Timeless
Troede jeg var mere Pink, men det er Floydende ligegyldigt, det er stadig fedt - men der mangler lige lidt på den mørke side af månen før de får en 5'er
Stødte på Pink Floyd for første gang lige da jeg var startet på gymnasiet og både bandet og mange af numrene har derfor en ret stor affektionsværdi. Prøvede at lægge det hele fra mig og gå til det uden forudindtagethed, og havde faktisk en idé om, at albummet ville falde ret meget til jorden uden al den kontekst, jeg har bygget op omkring det - men for satan hvor er det bare et fedt album. Havde ikke fanget alle jazz og blues referencerne rigtigt før nu, men koblet med albummets rækkevidde - både musikhistorisk og ambitionsmæssigt - kan jeg ikke andet end give det topkarakter. Stadig det eneste band, hvor jeg hellere vil høre deres live-optagelser end studie ditto, og synes faktisk at Disk 2 er bedre end 1.
Please fix the Spotify link, or only listen to "Disc 1" as the album
It’s not even my favorite Pink Floyd album but it’s still 5 stars.
I tried to put this album into words but it leaves me speechless every time. I'm convinced that any hate written about this album is just written to be controversial. This album belongs on the list.
Yeah shocker, the prog enjoyer enjoys prog. While I'd argue that The Wall is a better album, DSotM is obviously fantastic.
A Classic. One of the best in history. Besides the timing perfect with the Artemis II capsule flying over the Dark Side of the moon.
L: 8 M: 10 F: 10 O: 10
I mean…
I’d give it six if I could
5/5 nada que agregar
happy monday, its all downhill from here. 10/10 no notes
Don't really even need to comment on this one. It's only my 3rd favorite by PF but still a 5 star.
C’est un exemple type d’un album avec des sons individuellement bons mais sublimés entre eux dans le cadre d’un album. Je crains une légère surcôte quand même, mais c’est vrai que c’est top. Ça reste un album qui se tient parfaitement, sans temps faible, avec 2 « HIT » au moins, qui commence fort, qui finit bien.
No creo que es para mi, las intro se me hacen demasiado largas y en general no me gusta las canciones que son solo pista y no ninguna parte cantada
Nope
pink floyd idk
PERFECTION
maybe I do actually like prog rock and just hate rock opera
I tried listening to this for the first time several years ago and wasn’t all that impressed. While I can get annoyed with people who dismiss or down on the Beatles, I do understand the impulse to resist whatever past generations have slobbered over, because I sort of gave up near the end, decided this album was overrated, and left it alone. I was wrong. This is damn good and certainly a statement recording. I don’t know if I quite think of it as some eternal masterpiece, but it deserves its flowers as an all-time great. Will return.
Been waiting for a Pink Floyd album to be generated. Every audiophile's dream and the pinnacle of psychedelic rock. Top notch lyricism from Waters paired with the guitar from Gilmour. One of my absolute all time favorites
Ooh def a perfect/easy album to get you into rock, progressive rock, and concept albums. I remember when I was in highschool and getting this album on cd and listening with a stereo I got for christmas. It was an amazing feeling just laying on my bed (no drugs or anything mind you) and being completely transported. Is this their best album? I'd argue as I've gotten older and have matured both in Pink Floyd taste and general music taste no, is it a perfect album? Honestly, yeah I think so. Is it overyhyped? Maybe a little. All that being said this feels like it takes you through a general journey of human life and death in the broadest strokes. With themes of conflict, death, "time" and "Money) as well. So many legends / myths surrounding this recording like the 1 take "great gig in the sky" solo. Just an iconic work.
To me, this album is an indisputable all-timer. For the vast majority of tracks I've listened to, the context of the original album doesn't really matter; I find it just as rewarding or enjoyable to listen to the tracks in isolation or on a playlist as part of the album. But, that's not the case for any track on The Dark Side of the Moon: the whole truly is greater than the sum of its parts. That was clearly the intention of Pink Floyd; hence, the album is self-consciously cohesive, with seamless transitions from track to track and an overarching soundscape. Of course, while each track stems from the same vision, there's still plenty of variation between them. For instance, the vocals on every track have a dreamy, echoey quality, but they have an airy and incorporeal(?) tone on "Us And Them" and "Breathe (In The Air)," whereas they sound piercing and ragged on "Time" and "Money." These vibe shifts are matched by other elements of the soundscape, like the wailing of the guitars. In terms of my favorite tracks, I'm a normie: "Breathe (In the Air)," "Time," and "Money" are everyone's go-tos, although I also love "The Great Gig In the Sky," "Us And Them," "Brain Damage," and "Eclipse." Honestly, this album is banger after banger, and I like them all; it's just that I like the more "transitiony-sounding" tracks like "Speak to Me" or "On the Run" a little less. One Album a Day linked me to the 2011 remastered version of The Dark Side of the Moon, which includes the "Live At the Empire Pool" version of each track. Normally, I strongly prefer studio versions over live recordings, since, to my ear, studio mixes sound better, but I'm quite fond of the included live recordings. The vocals seem gritty, rough, and flat, which injects a little more cynicism and disillusionment into the lyrics; it's no longer a dream. I also prefer the saxophone and guitar solos on the live "Money" over the studio version. I've never been to a Pink Floyd concert, so I wonder what their set lists are like: do they always play their albums in full, or do they sometimes bang out only the greatest hits? It'd be a shame if it were the latter, I think. (5/5)
Yeah
It's great. Just not my vibe.
I'm not very good at reviewing music but something about the strange rhythms and synth/electronic sounds I find are really enjoyable to listen to, and each song was equally emotionally powerful regardless of if its lyrics or lack thereof. The album was both calming and somewhat ominous, but nonetheless entertaining and intriguing to listen to. I found this album encapsulated a lot of emotions and was overall very enjoyable (Money and Time have both been stuck in my head for an unbelievably long period now). This album felt very significant to me in a way I don't know how to properly articulate, but the best I can do is say I felt it in my soul (Brain damage and Any Colour You Like were particularly moving, and Eclipse was a brilliant song to end the album on, very beautiful.)
Duh!
10/10 album Favorite song: Money Best song: Time Worst song: On the run
This record has some of my favorite Pink Floyd songs in Breath, Time, Any Colour You Like, and Brain Damage. Also discovered Us and Them. But this record also has some moments that get too into the psychedelic side of things and just get annoying. Specifically in On the Run and Great Gig in the Sky. Resulting in 4 stars
What is there to say? It's iconic. It rocks. Not a single song is on my liked songs playlist.
Unpopular opinion: I don’t get the hype.
What can I say about this album? It's arguably one of the top 10 albums of all time. I'd heard it before, but it had been quite a while since I'd listened to it all the way through. While it's not one of my absolute favorite albums, I love it, especially thanks to my grandfather, whose favorite band is Pink Floyd. I wanted to give it 4.5 stars, but since that's not possible, I think it definitely deserves 5.
Sounds very gradient. I am liking the intro to "time." oaoaowowwaahahahhaaywyayayaaRAWEGhraehooow.... More sound effects. joyous. eueueuueuu saxaphone. I like us and them.
i like it
This album has meaning to it from what I looked up it being about insanity, other things in life that are kept secret, greed, death, and time. Just watched an essay about it and holy shit this album is fucking amazing. Both song and meaning
AMOOO Me encanta todo, desde los títulos simples pero abarca mucho más que eso, la guitarra ufff y por ahí un saxofon que me dio un eargasm. Y sobre todo las letras hijueputa de estos cabrones. los amo
дерьмо даже соушать не буду мне не понравилочт тот и єто
Did not listen
Pink Floyd are your classic “album” band. Whether it goes against them or not, you can’t just stick one song on. 4.78/5 stars.
MASTAPICE not me fave floyd but its a classic aint it. Always loved breathe and time. Brain damage and eclipse are the best ending ever too. Classic roger. You have to listen to it start to finish really dont ya
What can you say about it that hasn't already been said a million times before before. One of the best albums of all time. A timeless masterpiece
I know its a classic, but all the sound effects make it feel a bit dated. i had to skip Great Gig in The Sky. When you get into the songs theyre great. 4.5
Absolute masterpiece Don’t expect anything less than 5 stars Might be in my top 10 albums Time is one of my favourite Pink Floyd songs
This is obviously one of the best albums ever made. Although it also has weaker points, it's still a 5/5.
This is going to be a scorching hot take but this album was just good. Didn't change my life. 6.8/10
6 stars
nice
Para mí, es uno de los mejores discos de la historia. Lo escuché por primera vez hace unos 6 años, con mi papá.
This isn’t even just an album, it’s something else entirely. Everything flows perfectly, like one continuous piece. The transitions, the sound design, the way each track melts into the next—it feels like you’re inside it rather than just listening. The themes hit hard too. Time, pressure, money, madness… it all feels real, like it’s speaking directly to you. Time really stands out, that feeling of life slipping by is just too accurate. Money brings that groove but still keeps the message sharp. And The Great Gig in the Sky… no words, just pure emotion. It’s one of those albums where every detail matters, and nothing feels out of place. Calm and intense at the same time. Honestly, this is more than music—it’s an experience you don’t forget.
De los mejores álbumes del rock progresivo y rock en general. Icono cultural
When you’re a teenage boy and you discover drugs this is what you want. It’s like it was written and produced for you. Then you get into stuff like noise rock, ambient and minimalism and Pink Floyd seem like pretentious wankers. You hear yourself saying absurd things like “I only like Syd Barrett era Floyd”. Then you get older and you realize all music is pretentious… or, none of it is. It’s the listener who is applying their own bullshit hang ups and judgements on everything. I didn’t say it was a profound revelation or whatever. So, why is this record good? There might be some context application required for you younger folks… but, it’s hard to listen to listen to this album without listening to the whole thing. It’s like a whole piece of music compiled of mini suites. I’m at an age where I have a teenage son of my own… technically not a teenager anymore. I think Pink Floyd, like them or not, is a necessary step in a popular music education. Dark Side Of The Moon is on one end of the spectrum. This album represents experimentation, innovation, creativity and a desire in self belief to create something elevated and meaningful… yes, that sounds pretentious and I guess it is, but I guarantee that most musicians operate with this belief whether they sound like Pink Floyd or the Ramones. Both bands have 5star records. This is a 5. Your hate only feeds its greatness.
One of the best.
One of the best of the best of the best
It's a great album, brought down by being beaten to death by radio stations. Give me everything Pink Floyd - pre-80s and excluding The Wall and Dark Side and I'm a happy guy.
It's a wonderfully psychedelic album. Ideal for mental trips. An incredible instrumental. I love it
There are lots of things i can include from this album such as death, Happiness, living your life etc. The transition makes it so much better, it feels as if the vibes change significantly throughout the album. I can really feel the complexity from it, like It deserves so much attention because that's what makes this album a magnum opus. People need to see the resemblance from it. Not to mention that this album was on billboard top for 14 years. Now that is undoubtly impressive. Following the era where music has gradually changing overtime, but no such record can even surpass the peak of this work.
Heard a while ago, first time, all in one run. The album says something
love love love
what a great listen. this is in the top 5 of albums you have to listen to straight through as a whole to get the full effect. ethereal
Another one of these classics that it's hard to say too much about that hasn't been said ad infinitum, but I think this firmly deserves its masterpiece status. A sonic wonder for headphone listening (or in a blacklit room with a great stereo while under the influence). It's spacey, trippy, epic and carved out a sonic lane of its own, with David Gilmour's solos riding above it all. Us and Them is probably my personal favorite (good lord the choruses of this one), but the line that sticks with me most is "hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way". Easy 5.
A classic from start to finish, everyone knows this album.
I mean, what even is there to say?
A classic, obvs.
Has to be a five star because of the memories 😀
An undeniable classic. I listened to it 3 times today to be absolutely sure. No question, a 5 in every way: themes, aesthetic, continuity, catchiness, and of course the cover.
Álbum ya escuchado, una maravilla para todos los tiempos, quiero tenerlo en Vinilo
Know this album well but not heard for years. Still feel the same. It’s got a good feel overall but no real outstanding tracks. No shine on you…
That's not the moon dumbass. That's a triangle or something. There's also light so it's not even the dark side of it. These guys suck
I honestly quite like it, but I don't think any of the songs are going on my playlist so I can't give it a personal 5/5. That said I could totally see that changing in the future. 4/5.
Interesting, and better than wish you were here. Some of the solos still go on too long. It’s bang in the middle for me. 2.5
One of the greatest. Introduced by Margot but lively space shit
It’s beautiful, a work of art
Me gusto muchísimo como con sonidos similares cada canción te deja con una sensación diferente. Excelente album, temones us and them, the great gig in the sky, brain damage y breathe.
A true classic in my book. I didn't have much time for anything Pink Floyd did before or after this album, but this struck a nerve. The songs are beautifully structured and sonically rich. Well done, boys and girls.
Wow, it's THE album. And I thought it was great! I was surprised by how psychadelic and experimental this got; I thought that with how popular it is it would be much more mainstream, I guess. As on The Wall, I loved the "field recordings" in here and think they really add to the atmosphere of this record. Definitely will have to return for a more intentional listen, but, as of now, I'll give it 5 stars. Favorites: Breathe (In The Air), On The Run, Any Colour You Like, Brain Damage
Call me basic, but this is a perfect album. Sometimes the boomers are right! Shoutout to my college friend who wrote a paper on "Time" for his freshman writing seminar. Floyd is forever, baby.
I get the hype now. I'm not a really big fan of the experimental tracks but the record has some of the best songs from the band.
It's famous I guess.
When I first heard this album, I was a PF fan, and I was like, 'meh'. Too much to take in all at once, very complicated and the slow bits I had to warm up to. Now, I admit it, it is the greatest PF album. And possibly the best album of all time. Cliche take, but there it is. 5/5
Boring
Not much to say about this that hasn't been said. If you can relax your mind and let this just 'be', it will take you places. Listened a couple times through today while doing some web testing, now going to cue it up and show my daughter the Wizard of Oz in a new way.
Finally, some good fucking music. My favourite artist flip flops between The Beatles and Pink Floyd. It’s been mostly Beatles in 2026 so far but these last two days or so I’ve had the Floyd on heavy rotation. Not just the major four album run (DSOTM, WYWH, Animals and The Wall) but Piper, Momentary Lapse and Division Bell too. This is genuinely one of my favourite albums ever and it is absolutely something that everyone should hear at least once before they die. It’s a fucking masterpiece, everything this on point here. The musicianship is fantastic, the sound effects are top notch and it’s mixed beautifully. It deserves its place as one of the greatest albums of all time.
“There is no dark side of the moon, really. Matter of fact, it’s all dark.”
Crazy album, flows so well and is amazing to listen to. One of best albums of all time
The vote distribution on this album is like nothing I've seen yet, wow. I'm throwing my 5 in the pile
Æ vet ikke ka æ va forberedt på, med et sånt album som æ aldri har hørt på men bestandig har hørt om, men det va ikke egentlig det æ fikk, og det æ fikk va jo ikke så verst. Overraskanes ok? Ganske greit. Kommer ikke til å si nokka på det om noen andre en dag vil sette det på, spørs om æ huske å høre på det på egen hånd igjen.
Favourite songs: Breathe (In the Air) and Time Overall, really loved the flow between songs. Such a beautiful album, I now understand the hype. Glad I gave it a listen.
Banger of an album. And the lyrics are just top notch. "Us, and them / And after all we're only ordinary men" is pretty relevant today. And then this one: "And if the dam breaks open many years too soon / And if there is no room upon the hill / And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too / I'll see you on the dark side of the moon". Lovely album
What to say. I challenge anyone to give this masterpiece anything less than a 6
Top 10 greatest albums of all time. How anybody doesn’t rate this a 5 is beyond me.
This reminds me of the hypnopompic hallucinations right before you wake up. The twilight moments where you are neither completely asleep nor awake in this world, either. It's the back-and-forth between realities full of silhouettes, whispers, and obscure feelings.
I have watched a friend's older brother "play" the opening to "Money" on the cash register at his gas station job. Said brother was naturally gifted at two things - fixing cars and elegantly stacking used tins of Copenhagen (dipping tobacco) in his room. As an adolescent growing into my musical self my relationship with classic rock was complicated by the sorts of associations. Our local classic rock station (96 ROCK) leaned heavily on Lynard Skynard, The Allmans, ZZTop, Marshall Tucker Band and even Molly Hatchet and we were less likely to hear music form the big cities like Lou Reed (except Walk on the Wild Side and never a Velvet Underground song), Talking Heads or Grateful Dead (until '87). From the UK - we got the same Led Zeppelin and The Who songs that permeated everywhere - and a smattering of Pink Floyd. Unfortunately Money was the winner by a long shot. As a result i really tuned out classic rock almost entirely. Thankfully I had friends that guided me to the stranger end of the PF spectrum. What teenager is not amused by "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict". Eventually I found my way to Animals and later Piper at the gates of Dawn. but it took years to open myself to this. It was just ubiquitous - some hall mates in college painted the cover of this also on their wall. It's hard to uncouple an album from its legacy. But ultimately it's about prejudice - not intention. Four guys entered the studio trying to made the best album they could. They certainly weren't aiming for what they ended up hitting. They had a vision. They took a big swing. And what they created feels like nothing that has come before or after in terms of scale and ambition. Pretension is when your grasp exceeds your reach. The line between success and failure can be fine - and subjective. But when you do nail it - well then you get all the cookies. And it's still pretty weird (bonus points for that).
Less pretentious than Wish You Were Here, probably less enjoyable to me than The Wall. Way better than Piper At The Gates of Dawn. Still overrated as hell.
Easily one of the greatest albums ever made. It flows naturally fo one song to the next and has some of the best solos on record. The Great Gig in the Sky is particularly amazing.
Not as much singing as I thought, club vibe towards the end of some songs, some songs were better than others
I feel like I should be liking it more than I do, but it’s still a pretty good album
I mean, I'm not arguing against the consensus for a five star rating, but I'm still a little surprised that it's the third highest rated album in the list globally.
i’m not a big prog rock guy, but yeah ok, this is one you should hear before you die.
It sounds nice, but its definitely not my favorite album. I don't have much to say about it.
Had to take a little extra time to rate this one. What an experience. The way the songs flow from one to the other, but still keep distinct feels and themes as they go, was incredibly interesting to me as a listener. The instrumentation is perfect, the vocals on point, the song compositions exquisite. Even the sound effects aren't distracting, but instead seem right at home in the bigger picture. The production worked some magic to make each component as powerful as the rest. It felt like more was happening than just playing an album. I've actually listened to The Dark Side of the Moon in full before, but just once. That was a little over a month ago. My mind was a bit blown then, and the quality held up again on this relisten. Going through it a second time was also fun since I got to pay a little closer attention to individual parts instead of just taking in the whole thing as much. I feel like I could listen to this album 100 times and not get tired of it. Of course, I had heard a number of the songs before, some of them many times. Funnily enough, I never really liked Money all that much on its own. It seemed a little hokey or something. Putting it in the context of the album made it a much stronger song. I think Time is probably the best track on the whole thing, with the guitar absolutely killing it. But the way the vocals are delivered really makes it something special, too. There's also the vocalizations that are powerful and shine through everything else on Great Gig in the Sky, making it a really moving listen. Honestly, I could say something about every track on there. They're all just that good, especially when heard together. But I'll let the rest speak for themselves, as anything I write here won't do them enough justice. This album deserves all the praise it gets. It's more than just a great listen; it's a great experience. I would struggle to find something negative to point out. Every second was a treat to my ears. I'm generally hesitant to give out 5-star rankings as I think something should be truly great to earn top marks. It was easy to do here, without pause. This has to be one of the greatest albums of all time. Overall: 5/5
Hands down, the album of the century. Period.
Nothing to say but probably one of the best albums of any genre ever!!
Um dos discos que mudam vidas. É surreal pensar que isso aqui foi feito por humanos. O que eu mais gosto na banda são as transições, e aqui tem tanta riqueza nesta questão. É incrível. Emocionante.
The Dark Side Of The Moon é um álbum que fala por si só. Eu já havia escutado várias vezes quando mais novo, mas tinha muito tempo que eu não escutava: permanece irretocável. 5/5.
Um dos melhores albuns ja feito, se nao o melhor
Se reseñan solos estos álbumes. Espectacular. Es un viaje. No te aburrís nunca. Y es excelente hasta el el hit. 10/10
This album is very good. Although it's a 2011 remaster, I imagine the production was out of this world when it came out as well. All of the repeating samples and themes and the way the songs flow together make this a great full-album listening experience. In the way that Songs like "On the Run" actually evoke the image of someone running, I think this album does a fantastic job of using sound as a storytelling device. For that reason, I would like to listen to it again and learn more of the lyrics and track names to try and paint a more vivid image of the album's story. There's something about the use of sense and production tricks during this time. Period that I really like. Like we've said, there was a ton of creativity and excitement surrounding the emergence of new music technology. If I were to nitpick, I might say that they were a little too artsy with this album and the actual musical content doesn't have too much variety, but it is still executed on a very high level. The Way songs blend together could be interpreted as a strength or a weakness. I found myself more able to appreciate the long songs when I adopted the mindset that the whole album was one long song. Very good
It's an interesting (but impossible, lol) thought experiment for me to try to imagine/pretend that I'm hearing this for the first time: what would I, now, make of it? But, in fact, I formed, fairly early (by 20s, for sure, if not teens), a mostly negative opinion about this group, and this album in particular. Which a lot of people seem to love. Why didn't (don't?) I like it? Don't love the singer(s), for one thing. Plus, the whole thing is kind of . . . ponderous (like a big, dull beast), and pretentious. The other problem is that at least half of the songs have been played on "FM radio" (classic rock stations) so many times, over the years (only "Money" was a hit, but several others still get played regularly, too) - so the overexposure problem., But, ok, enough of the complaints. I can see that it was innovative, and there are a number of cool sonic elements. And so I would say that I do like it better, overall, now than I did when I was younger. So, I can for sure give it 3 stars. But I don't think I can give it 4. So 3 it is. Curious, as always, to hear what you 2 think.
I appreciate an album that rewards you for listening through, since that's what we're doing for this list. This one takes its time, but it doesn't get boring or repetitive. There's a wide variety of sounds and engaging lyrical material. So not only is it a pleasurable listen through, you also feel like you've gone on a journey: there's a progression between tracks. It's nice that they flow seamlessly too. As with many of the other albums I gave 5 stars, I'm impressed that this one contains really strong standalone songs that also fit into the greater conceptual whole.
I didn’t want to be that cliche guy who, like everyone else, says this is a masterpiece…but damn this is good. Likes: Breathe, Time, The Great Gig in the Sky, Money, Us And Them, Brain Damage
Great gig
Wish You Were Here or Dark Side of the Moon? Dark Side of the Moon or Wish You Were Here? Which is better? Since I HAVE to listen to Dark Side today, it is the best one...today. Maybe Animals tomorrow, I dunno. This is such an absolute slam dunk 5 for me the backboard exploded. Without a doubt one of the best albums ever made.
This is fine. As a musician I used to play shows with once said, Pink Floyd are not nearly as terrible as their haters make them out to be and not nearly as great as their enthusiasts say. I think this is the correct take. There are some nicely experimental, psychedelic moments here but they don't really cohere with the songs, which are (mostly) quite safe and soft rock-ish. "Money" is pretty cool though.
Fine but enormously overrated
Accomplished but weirdly sterile.
Liked it more than I expected.
I’m too sober for this
Why does the Best Album of All Time (TM) sound so tired
Cool instruments
A Pink Floyd album I don't actually hate! Less self-indulgent, more immediate, not a bad thing to put on at work while you contemplate the infinite.
Automatic 5 stars. Perfect album. I don't just like every song of this one, but I love each and every one of them and together they are even better. This is one of those albums that if you just listen to individual songs you are missing the point. It's meant to be listened to as a whole. It really is a true concept album where the concept is life itself - literally going from birth to death and everything in between. It's hard for me to be objective on this one since it's definitely one of the best things that was ever committed to vinyl - in my opinion. And it gets even better as I get older - which is crazy. I'm 60 and probably first listened to this end to end when I was 15 or so - and was familiar with songs like "Money" before that since that was the big radio song that came out when I was 8. It's all so much better when treated as one piece of music. And it's themes make even more sense as you get older too. And it's themes are still relevant today - maybe even more so then ever before. I did re-listen to this 3 times - as I try to do with all of the albums on this list. You really must put on headphones and do nothing but just listen and immerse yourself in this. This is not background music, it's meant to be actively listened to. The music, the arrangements, the individual performances, the vocals, the lyrics - all of it is so endlessly compelling. It still makes me think about things in unique ways when I re-listen to it - even after already hearing it hundreds of times. Fun fact: I was actually sort of a Dark Side skeptic at one point. I liked it but I thought it was overrated and felt that it was one of those things that you are "supposed" to like because everyone says so. But after listening over time it just sinks in and hits harder. It makes you think about what's important in life and what the pitfalls can be. I think it's literally helped me to be a better person and helped me recognize when I was getting too selfish or missing what's important. I read that Roger Waters, when asked what the album is about, said "empathy". I can see that. It helped me understand things about how society can be bad for people such as: - too much focus on work ("Breathe") - too much focus on "Money" and success - too much focus on what separates us and not what brings us together and how those separations can be used by those who crave power to build and hold on to that power ("Us and Them"). It teaches us to care about others even (especially?) if they are different and not to blindly follow people that only want power - it helped me understand that we all need to be true to ourselves even if to others you might seem crazy - where the craziest people are actually the ones that are "in charge" ("Brain Damage"). Who are really the crazy ones - people following their own path in life or those that want to control everything and every one? - and of course "Time" which reminds us to make the most of the short time we have on this planet - and we shouldn't waste it on purely selfish pursuits. I see the truth of it all even more as I get older. It blows my mind that a bunch of guys in their late 20s created this... it seems wise beyond their years. The songs without lyrics are not filler. They carry the story along. The song "On the Run" is a fantastic depiction of existing in a high paced society and the anxiety this causes. "Great Gig in the Sky" with Clare Torry's voice as the primary instrument making wordless vocalizations - almost feels like the journey one goes through in life with highs and lows and joy and sadness and fear and eventually resignation and acceptance that the end will come. I saw this performed live by Brit Floyd (yes, it's a cover band, but they are still amazing) - and the whole place was mesmerized and felt chills. There was a resounding standing ovation when the song finished - the longest of the night, in the middle of the concert. Incredible that a song without words can do that. And the final song "Eclipse" sums it all up with a rundown of all of the things that makes a life ("all that you touch..."). Reminding us that even though there is occasional darkness (metaphorically represented by an eclipse) - there is still sunlight (positivity) to guide us. But also with death comes the eternal darkness/nothingness. Great lyrics ... - "Don't be afraid to care" - Breathe - Can't pick a best line from "Time" it's all so perfect. This one definitely hits harder as you get older. - "But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise That they're giving none away" - Money - "With, without. And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?" - Us and Them - "The lunatics are in my hall. The paper holds their folded faces to the floor. And every day the paper boy brings more" - Brain Damage - "And all that you love and all that you hate.... And all you create and all you destroy" - Eclipse It's all just brilliant. There aren't many albums that make you think and feel as deeply as this one. There is a reason this is so highly rated on this site (currently at #3 with an average rating of 4.43 - just barely behind Rumours 4.46 and Abbey Road 4.46) AND why it spent 996 weeks on the albums chart. I've already written too much - but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that this also has the most recognizable album cover of all time. Genius. Liked songs on Spotify: 10/10 (Perfect album) Rating: 5/5
Det här albumet är ju ikoniskt och 10/10 är det enda rättvärdiga. Allt är mäktigt och Pink Floyd är😌 🧘♀️ 10/10
Amazing
Another classic. It is on rotation at my house so I hear it frequently.
Obviously fantastic.
I love rock. Grew up on it and just the staple of my childhood. This did not hit well with me. In fact, I got uncomfortable from time to time as I listened to it. It's not a 1, but it's not a 3 either. The album itself just sounds like a hot mess, but I can respect the time and effort that went into it all.
Obvs
Not my favorite Floyd album but one of my favorite albums full stop.
Hasn't this been proven to be a myth the whole time?
a cinematic and timeless masterpiece
Good shi om bij weg te dromen
Pretty vibey
Banger
Would be zero if it could be, most overrated album of all time
4.5
I haaaaate Pink Floyd but this album wasn’t the worst. Standout are breath & time but songs like speak to me on the run are the worst
Not their best and certainly not the best of all time, but a wonderful album all the same.
Despite what most people would say, I don't think this is quite as good as "Wish you were here" but it is still completely brilliant.
Great
Masterpiece. Pure artistry. The emotions, memories, and visceral joy this album invokes is beyond words.
didn't listen to all of it
Toda una experiencia,entra en un top 10 mejores álbumes de la historia fácil
The greatest album on this list so far and probably top 3 greatest albums of all time
Legendary album Always gives me an existential crisis lol
Banger + Wizard of Oz coded
I decided to really listen to every album and rate it no matter reputation or sales numbers. This was a hard one to stand by that promise, but there are a few moments on this album that didn't blow me away like all the 5* albums on my list did. I feel bad for doing this :D
Another great Monday pull! Another classic to end all classics and my 3rd Floyd album in this experience. It takes a bit to get going with the first three tracks but once it gets going it contains some essential classic and prog rock tracks. I wasn't wowed by it, but it was enjoyable nonetheless Is it better than "Wish You Were Here?" No. Is it better than "The Wall?" Yes. As such I'm giving it a 3.5 and rounding it up to a 4/5 for the sake of this experience
A classic for sure, but most of this album is just weird background music.
The concept was so well executed
Damn. That was awesome.
😫I have never and will never understand the fuss around this album. Dreary, monotonous and songs that seem to drag on. This was not a listening experience it was torture. Glad their very many fans enjoy this noise but it is most definitely not for me.
5/5 one of the best albums of all time
I actually don't think I've listened to any of these? The way the songs bleed into each other is super fun. Idk this isn't my usual music style but it's a vibe. Time is the first that feels like a song I would listen to- I feel like I got more into the album starting from there. Giving this one a 7/10. Not something I would normally listen to but I liked it and I appreciate the craft. Big fan of Brain Damage into Eclipse. The last four as a group of songs was super cool.
- I know this is a very popular album, I have never heard this before. Not the album, or any of the individual songs on it. - I liked all the synth work in On the Run. - The Great Gig in the Sky: Great bluesy tune, i fuck up the rock organ so hard bro. Also the gospel singer, it feels so gospel, i love this shit. It's got some cool harmony, a killer rock organ, a killer vocalist, and a great fucking vamp. The resolution in to the Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Bb then the Ebmaj7 then to Gm-7, Bb maj7, holy ii-V in Bb. Best track on the album. Period. - Holy Rhodes piano in Money. Also 7. Cool. Cool harmony. I love the sampling too. Fuck this album might be good. I'm at like an 8/10 at track 6. Okay there's a tenor sax. Cool effects. This might be a banger alert. - The tenor sax is back track 7. Fuck yeah. I was not expecting this. Nobody told me there was a goddamn banger saxophonist on Dark Side of the Moon. It just gets better. I'm at an 8.5/10 now. - Tracks 5-6-7 were transcendental, plus the ending track was phenomenal. I think the rest of it is fine, but what really makes this album for me is tracks 5-6-7. Like. They just went crazy mode on those 3 tracks, and I am HERE for it. I don't know if it's an 8 or a 9 or me, but it is not a 10, because of the first 5 tracks just not really doing it for me. So I will go 9 I think.
I love dark side of the moon, it lives up to its reputation as one of the best albums of all time.
I really like it, there was lots of silly sounds and bits that was fun and I feel like there was a lot of diversity in sound and feel of the different songs. I have never listened to pink floyd or this album and recognized a few songs and I don't know I am kind of into it and I am glad I listened to it.
It just works. The flow, the themes, the production, the patience - everything feels intentional without feeling forced. It’s immersive in a way few albums are, pulling you into its headspace and keeping you there. Familiar for a reason.
2026.03.08.
Always thing of the Wizard of Oz synch fun fact, it's a transformative album. Favourite tracks: Great Gig in the Sky , Us and Them
LOVE
Peak album. Will return to listen to this album over and over in my lifetime.
A classic? Really? I mean, it’s fine, good even, but you gotta admit that a lot of this is jamming and noise; when they do add lyrics, it’s not all that groundbreaking. Time is pretty good, but like, it’s not the most intellectual take on the topic of “time gonna keep progressing.” “But the complex themes like greed!” But it’s just a song called Money that features a cash register opening. Guys, come on, be serious…
J'ai eu ma phase Pink Floyd évidemment...
Quel album! Dans mes préférés de l'adolescence, j'écoutais du rock prog sur la table tournante de mon père avec des gros écouteurs pluggés sur le 1/4 et j'apprenais les albums par coeur. Après l'écoute, j'ai poussé la note dans l'auto en mettant Selling England by the Pound pour Alice qui me disait: 'il y a rien d'autre vraiment comme Pink Floyd' J'y ai dit sans trop y croire qu'il y avait Genesis, mais c'est vrai que c'est plus nerd et moins planant que la gang à Waters. Dans le top 3 des albums de Pinky pour moi avec Animals et The Wall. Ça m'étonne que personne ne parle de la persona politique de Roger Waters ici... tant mieux, je n'aime pas mélanger politique et musique.
5 étoiles mais je pense que la reputation est surfaite. Pref: breathe in the air. Great gig in the sky aussi!
It was rly good tbh
Nothing to say that hasn’t been said.
Absolute musical genius. Pure and simple. If this album isn’t a 5, then what is? Even the freaking iconic cover art is a 5! The mood and theme of the album is singular throughout. A complete work start to finish. This a true album, not just a compilation of songs. Finally, lyrically and musically the album is perfect. An absolute masterpiece.
Amazing album, true classic. Hadn't heard in a while - this was a treat
Despite having a father in law that is quite heavily into Prog, I have never actually listened to this album. And I have also never synced it to the Wizard of Oz and got high. But after listening to it, maybe I will. It is pretty much what you have got in mind when you think of a Pink Floyd. Its dark, unsettling and full of beautifully constructed soundscapes. "Time" is a fantastic study of the monotony of life but learning to reflect on what you have an make the most of it before it is gone. Where as "Money" sounds much more like an earlier version of Pink Floyd. with a bluesy bassline and less conceptual despair. Where as the sombre piano, Clare Torry's wailing vocals and the spoken words of Gerry O'Driscoll and Patricia Watt in "The Great Gig in The Sky" provide a reflection on the central concept of the album. Mortality, death and time. Its a very high concept album that fully deserves its almost legendary status. (4.575)
Dog sh1t
It’s cool
это был один из моих первых серьезно прослушанных альбомов. великолепное содержание и тематика, что шесть лет назад что сейчас, это просто вау
not my genre
An easy five. Lovely.
money was pretty good
First time listening to this album and it has some real bangers but there are also some weird and questionable stuff on there in my opinion
Helstøbt.
Amazing.
Listening to this album from start to finish is like visiting my younger self. It was like going home.
Overall wonderful listening experience. No notes.
The most album album that ever albumed. I'm giving it 9/10 because that's how many perfect songs are on it, and I'm not elaborating on which one I think is not so good. Actually I will say, Brain Damage/Eclipse is the best ending to an album in history, it's such a fantastic climax that ties the whole concept together. Sticking the landing is the hardest part of any concept album and only a few have ever gotten it right. Not to mention that random doorman they interviewed who gives the album all of its best spoken word lines.
This is far from my favourite Floyd album but this is still as iconic as it is for a reason. Plenty of fantastic songs on here, several of which stand as some of the best in this band's entire catalogue and a very forward thinking concept too. Fav Songs: Time, Money, The Great Gig In The Sky, Us And Them Least Fav: On the Run 9.5/10
Kinda boring HDJWHXHWHXJS Alien like music Mostly electronic instrumental 3-4/5
dude it's a classic and easy 10/10
I was 15 when I last heard this album and my teenage brain was blown. I am 31 now and I understand it much better. A production masterpiece, the first track remains my favourite. It is just as captivating now as it was back then. Nostalgic.
Erm what a heckin obscure pick for this list. Like, um has anyone even heard of this "Pink Floyd". My forehead has grown 3 sizes today after listening to such an enlightened piece of artistry. Jokes aside; obviously great album is great. Probably one of if not the most iconic albums of all time next to Michael Jackson's Thriller and Fleetwood Mac's Rumours.
-La maldita voz que tiene!! -Me gusta el encapsulamiento del disco a través del uso de interpolaciones o samples de canciones anteriores del álbum -qué groovy es Us and Them! prob mi fav Money lwk es de las mejores canciones del álbum -Any Colour you like es ambigua en sentimiento? -Eclipse es un cierre muuy sobrio para lo que me esperaba por lo construido en el álbum, pero supongo que justo el interior es lo sustancial *Si esto no tiene sentido, lo tendrá un día en el que investigue más el trasfondo de la banda y de las canciones. Por hoy, el status de "Los Mejores Discos jamás hechos" no es dado al desturk
yep that's dark side of the moon alright
One o f the best album in the history of music.
DISCAXO
I don’t get it, I’ve never got it. Great Gig in the Sky and Money are the peak, but the lead-up and falling action… it’s just not that engaging?
This had to be a five, it’s such a perfect album. Not a single second is wasted, and it’s always shorter than I remember it being. Not my favourite Pink Floyd, but probably their most important album.
Dark Side works because it demands you be in the mood—not casual, not distracted, but open. Put it on at night, lights low, and the whole thing becomes a kind of secular religious experience. I hope you feel the mood, if so it is truly an experience unlike any other.
I’ve listened to this 1001 times and will listen to this 1001 times more before I die.
obvious classic and one of the best albums of all time. "Time" is just a banger freakin song. the fact that this album is over 50 years old and still sounds fresh and unique is crazy. there is a reason this album has been such a cultural phenomenon. I listen to Wish You Were Here more often, but this is just an undeniable masterpiece. i would be disrespecting my upbringing to not rate this a 5.
I was SO excited for this one. Every song has such an ethereal vibe, beautiful vocal harmonies. Groovy basslines too !! Fav song is ‘Time’.
Beautiful, lush, and demands to be listened to in it's entirety with no bad tracks. Favorite track: Time
Bangers across the board
Self explanatory One of the best albums of all time!
Far out, man
Listened to this a bunch
Great album, love how all the songs flow into one another. Fav is breathe (in the air) and great gig in the sky ofc. Prob wouldn’t listen to most of the songs individually I think it’s def a listening experience as the album.
I’m forever hearing about what a classic this album is, the best album of all time.It came out when I was in high school and barely registered except for a stoner guy who wore colorful knitted vests. For me there’s nothing you can do with this album. You can’t dance to it or sing along to it but is perfect for a weed induced laser show.
So this is one of those really famous albums that I've never actually listened to until this list. I can understand why it is lauded, it was great.
10/10 zero notes. The boys fucking laid it down
Perfection
A classic for a reason. Cinematic and groundbreaking. Still sounds unlike anything else.
5/5 no notes. faves: us and them, time, brain damage
Not enough lyrics for me
This album is such a masterpiece, with so many beautiful layers, and still being so deep. It's not the best Pink Floyd album, I wouldn't say so (but it's close to be, of course), but this just shows (at least to me) the greatness of the band. The Dark Side of the Moon is not that psychedelic as other Pink Floyd albums, but it's a fantastic conceptual album, so greatly done and delivered. 1973 has to be a special year for music... I mean, this album, plus Tubular Bells, Houses of the Holy,... So many great albums were released that year. And this one is of the best, being more of a long song rather than small ones. They all blend into each other so well, with such taste and with so much to dive in that it is such an immersive and rich musical experience where there is so much variety and still a very clear and defined sound. Overall, an album to consider as one of the greatest of all time... yet to say that there should be space for, at least, one more Pink Floyd album. But this one's such a delight.
Top to bottom you’ll be hard pressed to find a better album anywhere in musical history. And 741 weeks on the Billboard top 200 is confirmation of that.
