THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

DSOTM is, as i´ve always thought of it, very enjoyable album. I think it´s overated everywhere and in many ways. First of all, i can´t seem to find any real progressive element on it. I mean , compared to say, Foxtrot or Octopus DSOTM becomes nothing but a generic rock album, avant gard if you may, but nothing else. Preconceptions on Pink Floyd make listeners ignore their music is ussually very simple depending on simple "time progressions" and atmospheric but rather simpistic melodies everywhere. Songs such as "21st. century ..." consist of twice as many musical ideas as all seventies´ Pink Floyd outputs. In the end, this album is enjoyable, with some musical details here and there to grab on, but nothing impressive whatsoever, unless you try hard and make use of all preconceptions on this album, that is.
