Better than anything including or after Animals

Again you’d have to have some serious drug addled schizophrenia to actually believe that.

Think so, he was basically fried so. It's sad really because he was very good

the rest of it is shitty commercial rock music

>Derp herp strictly commercial

Pink Floyd post Syd is not bad but its just dad Rock

Nope, you'd have to be a bumbling retard to not think it tbqh

>DERP HERPADERPY
dude hahaha you said what the other user said but in retard speak, I agree with you now. Commercial garbage is good now

Piper is just a worse version of saucerful of secrets

Wish You Weren't Queer

Like Arnold Layne or See Emily Play weren’t commercial either you dolt. Pink Floyd has always been a commercial enterprise from it’s inception.

Barrettfags. I swear.

Jugband blues is the best Pink Floyd song

That's not Bike.

he made paintings, and I think he continued to write. It wasn't like he had no creative output at all. He just wasn't making songs anymore.

He pushed shopping carts around Tescos and drooled on himself. Shut the fuck up.

No, he made two solo albums. I personally like this song more than any post-Syd Pink Floyd song.

Animals is clearly PF best albums

Only plebs disagree

desu, his solo albums are kinda boring. I was expecting more quirky experimentation and out-there stuff but instead got okayish mellow psych music.

that's usually how solo albums go from any musician.

Or a greek pedophile

>Animals [Columbia, 1977]
>This has its share of obvious moments. But I can only assume that those who accuse this band of repetitious cynicism are stuck in such a cynical rut themselves that a piece of well-constructed political program music--how did we used to say it?--puts them uptight. Lyrical, ugly, and rousing, all in the right places. B+

who was the more twisted fucking psychopath
syd or brian?
keep in mind brian tried to give his kid heroin and wanted to be buried alive in coffins several times

Syd and Brian would be good friends

He wasn't really that fried after he left he music industry, just became an antisocial NEET

he dropped off the face of the earth at 21. Younger than me. Hard to believe really

Has anyone else in music been JUSTed as bad as he has (not including cases where they deserved it, like the Lostprophets singer)?

Psychopath != psychotic and vice versa. Psychopaths are often the most rational-minded people around.

I would like to know what really happened to him. I dont buy the acid story, tho he was doing alot of it, I dont think it fucked him permanently

>just became an antisocial NEET

Truly was he a visionary ahead of his time

Yeah, same. There is so much myth surrounding him.

Acid can really fuck with your head, even if you don't do too much of it. If you're already vulnerable to schizophrenia even once can be too much.

He was also doing a shitload of other drugs.

I appreciate Syd Barrett for starting the band, but he really is a talentless hack who couldn't even tune a guitar. Being kicked out of the band is the best thing that could have happened to Pink Floyd, as Syd was already creatively spent anyways. If it wasn't for hipster faggots keeping his "legacy" alive, he'd be as forgotten as Pete Best.

imagine being this wrong about anything ever.

He took very large amounts of LSD and Quaaludes in 1967. The people he hung out with at the time regularly dosed his morning coffee/tea with LSD, obviously without his consent. During the 1967 American tour, Syd was visibly displeased and looked annoyed most of the time on stage. He loved to create and write music with the Floyd but he just wasn't into touring constantly and being a pop icon in general. I don't believe he was "fried" by drugs, he just preferred to live a more relaxed lifestyle and to go at his own pace.

>made a fortune off of exploiting his former bandmate's mental illness
>didn't try once to reconnect with Syd even after Syd himself tried twice

>I personally like this song more than any post-Syd Pink Floyd song.
The song is whatever but you seriously have shit taste if you think that my dude

It's an actual song with a distinct lyrical style, rather than random noodling with bad Syd writing impression.

>overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
>and everything is green and submarine
Every post-Syd Pink Floyd song is like listening to auditory cosplay of Syd, except for the few boring political songs on the Wall which sounds like they were written by a 12 year old.

>Apart from a brief encounter between Waters and Barrett in Harrods a couple of years later (during which, when Barrett saw Waters, he ran outside, dropping his bags full of sweets in the process), this was the last time any member of Pink Floyd saw him.

Shake that ass nicky!!!! A+
