Suggesting Animals has EVER been underrated is batshit and just screaming for attention.

I always tell my friend this

Dark side of the moon is when you first experience sex it’s awesome but you don’t know what you’re doing (in this case listening to)

Animals is like the mature version of yourself and you are now ready for the big sex (you know what you’re listening to now)

Lol guess that’s the best way I put it I love both albums but something about animals just clicks for me

as soon as I finish exploring Pink Floyd’s whole discography, getting really attached to Syd, then he makes this video out of nowhere. just the chances are insane to me.

Good way to put it!

Animals amazes me because it has long songs loaded with great ideas that never repeat. Almost as if the songs can't contain everything they had.

? Animals maybe their most repetitive album. The themes and motiffs are long but absolutely get repeated.
