Pink Floyd - Animals

[Jimi Dean Barrett]

Gerald Scarfe's drawings were new to me, I didn't know anything about it. Frankly, a drawings looks quite disturbing. No wonder they never used it.

Yet you can see an influence on the animation of Empty Spaces when they start biting each other. Wouldn't say reused. But it was the first thing I thought of when I saw the drawings.

You are right, Jimi.

Even 'Welcome To The Machine' video, also a work by Gerard Scarfe, have a lot of 'disturbing' moments. Around 3.45 min..

It's a disturbing song.

Shocked that there is no discussion about the 2018 remix release!

I thought it was amazing!

Looking forward to giving the Dolby Atmos version a listen which I noticed in Apple music.

I didn't like it. Rick's contributions got buried down the mix, especially on Dogs. I tried to listen at least thrice to this mix and got more and more annoyed about the decisions they took.
It made it sound like an attempt to underrate Rick even more. Of course that wasn't the true band's intention, it was annoying nonetheless.

It's always interesting to have a new vision of the album released, but in my case I stick to the original mix.

I was even more annoyed by a factor not related to the mix, though: the absence of live recordings from the time. Since it was a special edition, in that case including this new mix, it was another missed opportunity to open the vaults of some of those amazing tours.

Every release give or a take expect one or 2, PFM always creates missed opportunities of what they can include on their releases. The live Wembley 1974 DSOTM release. Just give us the whole frigging show yet its spread across 3 different releases

I have listened to all (so far) PF's albums today. I'm going to finish with this one for today. I want to like this album but I just don't. I like pigs on the wing 1 & 2 and I enjoyed Pigs when I saw Roger do it live but this album just isn't for me.

I believe I can understand those people who don't like this album. Animals is one of the most uncommercial albums ever made. Without any hit single, it basically consists of the three very long songs full of the animal sounds and a great music. What else would you want?

[Keith Jordan]

Animals is right up there for me. Gritty and epic!

[Eclips]

hey Sony Music, some release from the 77 Animals Tour in 2027 please!!

or even before, I wouldn't mind!
