THE WALL

This is my favorite album. I can't say enough about the story, the music, or the visuals that accompany it. It is a story that has elements in everyone's lives. Anyone can relate to being mistreated in school, for example. The album is a commentary on life in general, from overprotective mothers to war to our materialistic society. Not to mention the amazing music! Every song has significance and good music. Although 'Bring the Boys Back Home' and 'Vera' and kind of weak musically, they carry excellent messages about what should be important in life and ask why we need to fight for matierial gain. These two songs are considered by Roger Waters as the core of the story, but are often overlooked. They also are accompined by some of the most profound portions of the movie. The album also has some amazing guitar work, such as on 'Another Brick, part 2', 'Run Like Hell', and my favorite song, 'Comfortably Numb". Both of the 'In The Flesh' songs are awesome as well, and overlooked. This album has deep psycological meaning but is also great to just listen to. I would also highly recomened the "Is There Anybody Out There?" live version, which expands on the music and hints at the spectacle of their live shows.
