You know I would make a thread just for this. ANYWAY, 32 lovely years ago, a double album by the name of THE WALL was released by our favourite weird-ass prog band, Pink Floyd. And it was awesome. :D

Excellent album, superb band. Odd year to celebrate an Anniversary thread. I have a feeling you did this just cause you like the album.

Yay! It's definitely my favorite Floyd album too.

Pink Floyd is tame for prog standards, not weird-ass, silly Elysia.

Piper's not even one of their prog albums though!

Piper's not even one of their prog albums though! I know, but I was describing them as a whole as weird-ass without a prog distinction. I am aware that Piper is not prog.

Floyd had very much their own unique Prog style to their music. It was different than other Prog bands of the time which is part of the appeal if you ask me.

I'm not denying it of it's quality or style at all. But c'mon, there's a reason they're the most popular prog group. They're not really weird-ass, I'm not denying their style but its still easy on the ears and to play on the radio.
I mean tell me they're weird-ass compared to Can or Gong.

Well Krautrock was much more experimental, same with any band involved in the Canterbury Scene like Gong. Floyd still has their stuff that's more out there. Animals might be the best example of that, or Atom Heart Mother. But compared to other Progressive Rock bands then yes there a ton of weirder stuff out there.

Atom Heart Mother doesn't even make sense to me.

Atom Heart Mother doesn't even make sense to me. Well then. Floyd wins that weird battle I suppose.
