Dark side of the moon is the most pretentious hippie bullshit I’ve ever heard

dark sid ef the moon is the most pretentious hippie bullshit I’ve ever heard. Markets itself as being some prog rock masterpiece even though it has the tamest most radio friendly chord progressions ever. I seriously don’t know why music snobs jerk off pink floyd off so much because every time I try listening to this shitty album I fall alseep at having to listen to a bunch of old men whispering over some stock ambient music tracks (don’t even get me started on shine on you crazy diamond that godawful song). I know boomers love listening to slow 70’s radio rock that plays the same three chords but this is honestly a new low for them. I’d rather place AC/DC over this pretentious boring piece of garbage. Thank god punk killed prog because I don’t want to know how music would have been if everyone started copying pink floyd

This was my experience listening to this album:

Speak to me: Pretty cool as an overture and the only good track on the album. Only issue is that it makes you think it’s gonna set you up for a breathtaking album but instead you just get disappointed

Breathe in the air: boring jazz miles davis wannabe shit. I don’t even know what the lyrics are supposed to be “run rabbit run” ??????????? most boring song on the album

On the run: Oooh look at me I can u see synthesizers am I gonna do anything interesting? No lets just play the same godawful sequence for like 3 minutes straight because we’re so edgy and hip

Time: Dumbass clock noises and then 3 minutes of the most dragged out intro in history before actually getting to the song. The song itself isn’t even that good except the lyrics which are alright. It’s like the most dad rock Eagles sounding song ever

Great gig in the sky: Who brought yoko ono in the studio???

Money: Basically the only good song on the album that I actually enjoy listening to. Doesn’t take itself too seriously and it’s pretty catchy which is unlike the other pretentious garbage on this album

Us and them: Andddddd now we’re back to zzzzzz. 7 straight minutes of the SAME GODDAMN SONG. LIterally nothing changes, they just repeat the same verse chorus verse chorus structure for 7 entire minutes with the most stock ambient music garbage I’ve ever heard from this band besides shine on you crazy diamond. Then they add in some interview segments to act like they’re all deep and shit NO UR SONG SUCKS SHUT UP

Any color you like: I think this is when they realized that on the run sucks and they wanted a second try on the synthesizer so they came up with this. I’m gonna retract my statement about breathe in the air actually. This is the most boring song on the album. It’s literally not even a proper song, they just recorded some random instrument jam sessions and then decided that it was worthy of being included in a studio album. This is extremely lazy like you seriously couldn’t come up with another 3 minute song?

Brain damage: It’s half decent I guess but I definitely wouldn’t go out of my way to listen to it. Ironically it’s the most pop song and it’s better than most of the other “””prog””” songs on the album despite pink floyd trying so hard to be a progressive band and failing

Eclipse: I could tell the band just completely ran out of ideas here because they just started listing off random shit that’s tangentially related to the themes of the album for the lyrics and just made that the entire song. It’s almost as repetitive as on the run but at least this song actually sort of sounds like one I guess.

This album fucking sucks and is the most overrated shit I’ve ever listened to. I hope this album ends up in F tier and all the pink floyd fans come crying about it
