i didn't even see this thread prior to inventing the thread i started about making music

"Just a bunch of hipsters who think playing drop g with bass strings on their guitars 2 beats per minute and calling it "B3at Down" makes them great" made me smile
" i myself wasn't a PF fan either.. theyre boring to me actually" irritated me

guitar... i play one of those. it's fun. i like Guitar Rig 5 for effects.. in case you were wondering.

i make rock and roll in an EDM environment. that's more than fun.

Zeppelin and Floyd were like Metallica or Megadeth.. in my experience. I meet many older fans of either or. There was even a case in UK where a dude stabbed a Floyd fan over Zeppelin lol.
To be honest, There hasn't been a guitar riff that ever stood out for me. I went into their music with the impression that david gilmour was an iconic player.idk recomend me something. I'd check it.

comfortably numb... or just the entire Wall album. "Time"... or the entire Dark Side of the Moon album. Welcome to the Machine....... the whole Wish You Were Here album. come on man, this is Pink Floyd we're talking about. i'm flabbergasted.

i guess i can relate, i think Megadeth sucks

There’s only one Pink Floyd album, and that’s Live at Pompeii. (I know it’s a film rather than an album)

If you don’t like Echoes, you have no soul. Best song ever made.

It has the definitive version of their best songs: careful with that axe Eugene, one of these days I’m going to cut you into little pieces, saucerfull of secrets, set the controls for the heart of the sun and of course Echoes.... pure genious. Ok, you can skip mademoiselle knobs.

So guys and girls, really, if you’ve never liked Pink Floyd before because you thought they were pompous assholes, please, do me and yourself a favour, listen to or watch Live at Pompeii

But, I didn't want to move the focus away from Echoes :)

Overall I thought that was terrible. The singing was awful in a sort of hippyish surreal vibe kinda way, the keyboard sounded hokey and Doors-ey. I thought the guitar was OK at around the 7-8 minute mark but overall it wasn't for me.

I will YouTube a few songs though to get a bit more exposure to PF but I'm not sure I'll see what all the fuss is about.

you’re just saying that because you already made up your mind that you weren’t gonna like this. Yes, it’s hippy and all that, but if you start liking it, it’s really good. Open up your mind and listen a few times

I will consider putting some of it up on YouTube. If I am not mistaken, you download at any price off of Bandcamp right now. I am hesitant to go to Spotify until I even enough of a following to justify myself doling out the money to get myself on streaming services.

Here is a new thing I came up with in the last two weeks:
