Pink Floyd - Under Construction: The Wall DEMOS
I was pretty excited to hear this after discovering it yesterday.
It does not disappoint. It's great to hear the way that some of the tracks were originally so flawed and that's musically and lyrically. It reminds you of the immense amount of effort and work that was put into creating the final masterpiece 'The wall'. Some of the tracks actually sound better in areas too. Whether you are a fan or an obsessive nerd(in which case you will already have this!) or just someone who appreciates good music, download this one.
I have more bootleg and rare Pink Floyd so maybe, if you want it, I can upload it.

Final note.
I got a request that I try some albums and 'Stephen Malkmus - Face the Truth' was one of them.
I just got it so expect it soon. I like it too.. Amazingly!

It was crap before production, and crap after, thus proving that you cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
How come you've never heard of Bloc Party? Is it chilly out there in Outer Mongolia?
Art Brut was the bollocks, by the way
Hehe. It is quite novel to see someone slagging off Pink Flods most revered album. I respect you for that.
I can't join in though, I almost (sad I know) worship this album. It can't be crap, just a little melancholic surely?
Part of the reason for this site is exactly the fact that I have not listened to enough recent music. So I admit I never heard of Bloc Party and thanks to doing this shit I now have a great new band to listen to..
Pink floyd made their last great album when they made "Wish you Were Here". They had taken progressive music full circle back to the blues. There was nowhere left for them to go after that, other than become overblown monsters of prog-rock, which theyproved with "Animals" and then "The Wall". The final nail in their coffin was when Scissor Sisters showed them how "Comfortably Numb" should have sounded if floyd hadn't been so far up their own arses.
No! No! No! damnit!
I am sick I know but I can't leave this alone. Not when you are openly blaspheming!
OK, I am going to look around for some stuff on the workings and ideas 'behind' The Wall before I prepare my reply!
I just feel I need to get you to realise how huge an album this was, both in terms of the amount of hours put in and the length of the album but also the turning point in progressive music it represents!
Damn.
The Wall is a great album, though I think it definately is a showpiece for the over-inflated ego of a pompous Roger Waters. I think the turning point in Floyd's albums was Wish you Were Here.. Wish was definately the pinnacle of their career. Animals is a great album too, though you can see the heavy Waters influence on it. Final Cut was just a waste of time in my opinion...

- Please DO!
Comment noted my friend.
Look out in future after the music of islam series ok...?
I do feel a return to some good prog rock and floyd soon....never really got into posting my progressive collection..
Hey, man, tanx, looking forward! The demos r great! :)
Yes, that would be great, more RIOS please!
tammygirl....how can you honestly put Scissor Sisters above Pink Floyd?(especially with comfortably numb, sure the live versions are superior...but the studio version could kick the SHIT out of the "greatest" thing SS did)
youre lucky they have not invented the "smack yo stupid face across the internet" feature yet...otherwise I would know someone with a very cherry like appearance
sure Roger was very ego-centric but that doesnt make it a bad album! A bad album would be the pieces of pompous shit that SS put out, which is like one or two albums compare to the six that Pink Floyd made (and thats just in general, there are people who would say almost all of PF's albums are godly)
point is...20 years from now, who will be remembered...
...not Scissor(ing) Sisters
