Animals still sounds like Pink Floyd to me where The Wall sounds like Roger Waters...

Surprisingly difficult for me, but I gave my vote to the underdog (heh), The Wall. A true epic with scathing observations and drama. I find the whole sequence concerning the trial to be particularly intense. And I love Animals.

The Wall is flawed, puerile, too long, and overexposed. It's also tremendous, kick-ass, jawdropping, and impossible to emulate. Animals is a better record but I give it to every 80s high school student's de-virginizing heartbreak of a rock album.

I went with The Wall because this was when I discovered Floyd. I was 11 in 1979, and I kept hearing all these amazing new songs on the radio; I'd wait to find out who it was, and it was always Pink Floyd. It seemed like this music was made especially for me: Comfortably Numb, Hey You, Run Like Hell, Goodbye Blue Sky. This was at exactly same moment I was discovering older songs being played on the radio: One of These Days, Have a Cigar, Welcome to the Machine, Breathe, The Great Gig in the Sky. I was stunned that they were all by the same band. I bought The Wall and poured over the lyrics, wearing out the grooves on all 4 vinyl sides. It's that experience that I'll always treasure.

Actually, I love them equally. But I gave my vote to the Wall based on the fact that I invested much more money into the wall. I own one copy of Animals, whereas I own a number of different Live documents (several CDs and a two DVDs) of the wall next to the original album.

I went with The Wall. Sprawling, messy and too Watery but it is also far more ambitious. There are so many great moments on The Wall that it simply overwhelms Animals, which is often simply bitter and, after all, only contains 3 complete songs.

The Wall is a very good album
Dark Side, WYWH and Animals are perfect.
