09.18.11 | The Dark Side of the Moon is in my opinion the best album ever recorded.
Whatβs your favourite Floyd? |
JamieTwort
09.18.11 | My top 5:
Animals
WYWH
Dark Side
Meddle
The Wall |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | Not usual to see Meddle so high JT ;-)
The Piper, Final Cut and Meddle are all pretty close in my book |

09.18.11 | @Angel. I love all their records. Let's say all their work bellow Final Cut are pretty close |

I'm a huge Floyd fan |

09.18.11 | "Not usual to see Meddle so high JT ;-)"
Meddle actually gets quite a lot of love on Sputnik and I can certainly understand why, it's a superb album.
|
JamieTwort
09.18.11 | Good to see 5 so high, that album is rather underrated IMO. |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | Haaha I see that now. Yes its an amazing album, like most of their work |
tarkus
09.18.11 | Meddle is my favorite, I could understand someone putting it fourth or fifth on a list, but when I see it at 9 I tend to get mad |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | "Good to see 5 so high, that album is rather underrated IMO."
Agreed.
The Division Bell is brilliant. Songs like What Do You Want from Me, Poles Apart, Marooned, Keep Talking and specially High Hopes are amazing.
Extreme underrated. |

09.18.11 | @tarkus
No need to get mad. Like I said I absolute love Meddle (I already listen that album at least 50 times), I just love 1-8 a little more.
We're talking about rock masterpieces here. All their work is great...it's all a matter of opinion. |
Jethro42
09.18.11 | 3, 4, 1, 9, 2, 5, 11, not too sure about the rest given my lack of deep knowledge of it. Ummagumma is weird but pretty good. |
tarkus
09.18.11 | The studio disc of Ummagumma has some garbage on it
The live disc is good |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | "Ummagumma is weird but pretty good"
Yes..it's weird trip...perfect record to hear in a good mood... |

Animals (must give this one more attention though)
Odd ranking for 5-9 I must say. |
Jethro42
09.18.11 | You know what? DSOTM = WYWH = Animals
I just decided it. |
TheNotrap

09.18.11 | glad you ranked their albums and not fucking songs, although i disagree with the rating |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | DSOTM = WYWH = Animals
All great. All 5/5
But Dark Side will always be my fav.
Their most consistent album IMO. Also amazing sound engineering by Alan Parsons.

Well it's your opinion and I respect that. I've got a friend who says Piper it's their best.
The people above 50 arguably prefer the first 2. Specially their debut with Syd Barret

phew.... |
Divine
09.18.11 | Yea TheNotrap, I prefer the Syd Barret era of the Floyd. A Saucerful of Secrets and The Piper At the Gates of Dawn are the only Floyd albums I have ranked as 5's |

09.18.11 | I wish I could put on caps here the brilliant The Great Gig in the Sky.
Timeless magic moment |
Obfuscation24
09.18.11 | 8 is their best album
come at me |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | Yep The Final Cut is a great album. I always believed Roger should released this record under his name...but yes it's a great record. Probably the most dense of their discography. |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | The debut Roger Waters IMO |
Obfuscation24
09.18.11 | Thank you for agreeing, it definitely gets overlooked because of butthurt PF/Gilmour fanboys |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | I love both.
Love Roger for his genius songwriting and Gilmour for being the best guitar player I ever heard.
Their musical combination made my favourite music. |
Obfuscation24
09.18.11 | yeah i love both just the two extreme sides of fans skew vies of the albums |
TheNotrap
09.18.11 | Agreed.
Sometimes people just don't catch the big picture |
andrikos
10.22.11 | WYWH > Animals > DSOTM > The Wall > Meddle > The Division Bell is my Pink Floyd upper echelon...
I enjoy the rest too of course... |
TheNotrap
10.22.11 | Excellent choices
Glad to see you like The Division Bell. Amazing but sometimes underrated record. |
andrikos
10.22.11 | Indeed it is. This is the album I chose to turn my kids (10 & 11) into Pink Floyd fans. I told them to be patient with it and it worked! ;) |
TheNotrap

WYWH is also an absolute classic. 5/5 in my book.
Great to see The Division Bell on your top 5. Amazing album. |

11.30.11 | Get two the fuck down. |
Aids
11.30.11 | holy shit no way is ummagumma last |
TheNotrap
11.30.11 | I love all their work dude...
I needed to pick one and it was Ummagumma - 1/2 original album. |
Aids
11.30.11 | I love all their work except for The Final Cut, fuck that shit
and idk, Ummagumma was one of the first records i found when I was sifting through my dad's vinyl when I was like 12. that shit blew my mind. objectively it's just ok (for Floyd standards) but fuck me, no way it's the worst thing they've done. Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict kicks major ass, and is one of the greatest song names ever.
haha don't mind me, I'm extremely opinionated when it comes to Pink Floyd |
TheNotrap
11.30.11 | Same here.
Great to see you like Floyd that much.
It's very hard to rank these guys., almost all their work is great.
Some dudes prefer The Dark Side of the Moon, others Animals or Wish You Were Here...
One thing I know, Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands of the past century. Their music is just timeless. |
TheNotrap
11.30.11 | One of the few bands that won the timeless status |
Aids
11.30.11 | for me it goes:
Wish You Were Here
Animals
Dark Side of the Moon
The Wall
------------------------ (all 5/5)
A Piper at the Gates of Dawn
Meddle
A Saucerful of Secrets
Ummagumma
Atom Heart Mother
The Division Bell
Obscured by Clouds
Momentary Lapse of Reason
Soundtrack to the film More
The Final Cut (basically a Waters solo album)
or something like that |
Aids
11.30.11 | I mean any band that can have the masterpiece that is DSOTM come in at #3 is timeless. fucking amazing band. |
TheNotrap
11.30.11 | Indeed, The Final Cut is basically Waters first solo album but I still love it.
Great to see The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn so high. Great debut, Astronomy Domine is such a trip ride...
You need to feed your love for The Division Bell. Amazing album IMO, 5/5 in my book.

11.30.11 | Animals is by far their best album. |

TheNotrap
11.30.11 | The Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall, Wish You Were Here, Animals and The Division Bell are all 5/5.
My lowest Floyd rank is 4, so it's easy to see how much I love these guys.

11.30.11 | I'm gonna make a controversial comment but to fully understand Pink Floyd you need to fly....an hallucinogenic ride I mean. |
SylentEcho
12.18.11 | I know I'm in the minority when I say this, but I'd put Division Bell at number 2. |
TheNotrap
12.18.11 | Indeed but you're not alone dude.
The Division Bell is an amazing album.
What's your top 5 btw? |
jefflebowski
12.18.11 | I think you're underselling meddle here |
Piglet
12.18.11 | Dark Side is the most eloquent, complete records of all time. I would rank it up there in the Top 10 of all time. |
KILL
12.18.11 | agreed |
TheNotrap
12.18.11 | "Dark Side is the most eloquent, complete records of all time"
Indeed Piglet. The greatest album ever made.
@Jeff
Like I say above, If I made this list today I will probably switch #8 and #9. |
KILL
12.18.11 | i think 6 is prob the worst floyd album |
TheNotrap
12.18.11 | I believe you know how much I love A Momentary Lapse of Reason Kill.
I love all their work...
Making this list was really a hard task for me. Floyd is my absolute favourite band. |
jefflebowski
12.18.11 | yeah, fair enough. Good ranking though, the top 3 are pretty much interchangeable 5's as far as I'm concerned |

5/5 top 5.
Similar to mine (same records in a different order):
1. The Dark Side of the Moon
2. The Wall
3. Wish You Were Here
4. Animals
5. The Division Bell |
xfearbefore
12.18.11 | I'd have ranked Piper higher personally, but I love British psychedelia from the 60s. Glad to see the Division Bell get some love though, underrated album. I'd probably have Piper and Meddle slightly above it, but not by much. Everything else on the list I agree with. |
TheNotrap
12.18.11 | "I'd have ranked Piper higher personally, but I love British psychedelia from the 60s."
Syd Barret's songwriting is mind-blowing. Astronomy Domine is one of the most iconoclastic British psychedelia songs ever released. |

12.18.11 | Agreed, that song is madness. |
