In this scenario, Pink Floyd didn’t release five albums and Animals is at 6.
I’ll say it here: I think every LP they’ve released is worth owning, and I don’t normally feel that way about deep-catalog bands. I’ve got the same bias as you: that mid-’90s lineup could do so much damage. As a drummer, Drozd has an incredible feel, and Jones gave the band so many tone options. I’m a sucker for the twangy stuff, too. Yoshimi was a letdown for me after Bulletin (which, if I remember correctly, I bought at Borders. Ouch), but I’ve grown to love the moodier stuff on it. Believe me, I know putting it that low looks off. It’s the fave Lips album for a lot of my friends.
May we not be self-aware, I ask you?
1. Dark Side of the Moon
2. The Piper at the Gates of Dawn
3. Wish You Were Here
4. A Saucerful of Secrets
5. Meddle
In this scenario, The Wall is Yoshimi.
I should’ve typed “Ivins,” screwed up. Good catch.
i can’t believe they left that joke in
I’m still working on my Stereogum merit badge, but here’s mine as well:
Got a vote for The The’s ‘Dusk’ over here!
Absolutely silly. There’s not a bad one in the bunch. And yeah, I was surprised at where AHWT ended up.
Also, I hear the sun of “Around the Sun” fame is due to burn out.
Oof. Yeah, I do. No, it didn’t. Yes, I have. Dozens of times. And thanks for the reminder, btw, my screen is gross.
