A progressive rock group that came into being in the late 60's. Become famous after original frontman Syd Barret fried his brain on LSD and left the group, got new guitarist Dave Gilmour and released "Dark Side of the Moon" which had the longest reign in the billboard top 100 ever. Music sounds futuristic, but old school, Sort of like when they travel to the future in "Back to the Future 2" and everything looked hyper 80's. PinK Floyd started sucking 1980 onwards.
Im gonna go on a spiritual journey, ive got a couple of ounces and my dad's copy of Pink Floyds Dark Side of the moon.
One of the greatest Britain's bands. The history of the band can be devided into 3 periods:
1. Syd-era.(Late-Beatles-like music, drug psychodelia, nothing special)
2. Roger Waters -era (the golden age of the band, original concepts in music, genius lyrics)
3. Waters-less era (pathetic attempts of David Gilmour to match the genius of Waters, "Division Bell" is rather moving though)
'There's a lot of… devices that Roger uses (for writing music), that I'm not very… that I don't know how to do… Roger has owned his craft to a very fine point' (Dave Gilmour, Musi-Max Documentary, 1989)
