ANIMALS

I'm a big fan of Pink Floyds music, especially the 2 albums before Animals. But Animals has actually taken a swing at me, and now time after time i'm starting to like Animals even more. The thing that makes it better than the controversial The Wall is that Waters actually hasn't got the full authority on the making of the album. This can also be a bad thing, i really adore Waters vision and musicianship, but the thing in prog has always been that it's a group effort. Even if Waters is a great great musician, he too, has his flaws, which can be seen in the next album. This album has just all the good sides of Waters we want, which makes the album kinda perfect.

There isn't a single bad track on this album. The acoustic is a great opener and ending to the album, "Dogs" is just amazing, listen the climax of the first solo, it's astonishing! "Pigs(Three Different Ones)" is a groovy and rocking track which has a great bass line and lyrics(Waters!), and "Sheep" is a really nice rock out track, with a nice guitar riff.

This album is easily worth 5 five stars, like the 3 albums before it, but i'm afraid that it was Pink Floyds last real masterpiece.
