ANIMALS

I can't help but give this one a five. Probably my favorite Pink Floyd album, it features Pigs on the Wing at either end of the album, which are great little acoustic songs. The remaining three songs are all either close to ten minutes or over. The first is Dogs. It opens up with great synth and memorable acoustic guitar riffs and great lyrics and vocals from Gilmour. It becomes really awesome once the second guitar solo, when its all echoey, then it rocks hard, and becomes much darker, then there is a big ambient section which is great to listen to while you sleep. Then the epic outro brings the song to a close. Pigs (3 Different Ones) is a great scathing rocker, with a great outro solo. Sheep is the hardest rocking PF song ever. Great lyrics, with a nifty electric piano solo at the beginning. Great vocals from Waters too. It closes with Pigs on the Wing, which I have already reviewed. So this is an excellent album with 5 excellent tracks, not one of them a dissapointment.
