I agree that none of their albums are overrated. Pink Floyd expierimented with many great styles, such as Piper at the Gates psycadelic sound, Saucerful of Secrets "space rock" sound, they then found themselves with Dark Side which was a masterpeice. The Wall, Wish You Were Here, and Animals were all masterpeices too. But if there was one album that got a little more credit than it deserved it was probably The Wall. Dark Side cannot be overrated because it Dark Side! It is arguably THE best concept album ever!

I actually think The Wall is a brilliant album
I don't think any of their albums is overrated. If you put a gun to my head and told me to pick one, I'd say Wish You Were Here - because I consider it just a bit weaker than The Wall and Dark Side. Then again, Shine On is one of my all time favorite songs

"I still say The Wall is their most overrated album simply because you cannot listen to every song individually as you can with DSOTM, WYWH and even Animals."
That's because "The Wall" wasn't written to have stand-alone songs. It was written to be one continous interlocking story with every song connected to the next one. -

"So were the previous albums. And they're all listenable as one complete piece and as individual songs."
And so is The Wall. What's the problem here? You trying to tell me you can't listen to Mother, Nobody Home, Comfortably Numb, Hey You, Vera, Run Like Hell, etc.etc.etc..etc.etc. by themselves? If you say no then you just have a personal grudge against The Wall. Every song is great on that goddamned album, together or separate. -

Honestly, I love all the music made by Pink Floyd. The only thing that would even disconcern me from their music is the fact that many of the younger pot heads and skaters listen to them just because they think it's cool, not because they like the music.

My little brother is an exception. He just turned 17 and loves every Floyd album and every Floyd song. And I'm talking like Obscured By Clouds and Atom Heart Mother. All of them. And he found them on his own. I never even pushed him in that direction. Pretty cool for someone that young if you ask me.

WISH YOU WERE HERE by far! Please dont kill me I like the album but I think it's the most overhyped album (and song). I just don't understand what the deal is. Personally The Wall is my favourite album but I think Dark Side of the Moon is their best.

I am also an exception. I started listening to Pink Floyd when I was 16, and when I was 17, I got every album they did. This includes the Syd Barrett, Waters, and Gilmour stuff. I'm 21 now, and I still love the Floyd.
