 The Best 42 minutes 57 seconds of music you will hear October 21, 2008
Jl Adcock (Ashtead UK)
There is simply no topping this album when it comes to brilliant music making. Repeated listens over the years simply reveal more depths, which to me is the sign of wonderful, timeless music. The word classic is over-used, but for me, Dark Side of The Moon goes beyond being a piece of great rock music. It is simply great music. Taken as a complete work, you are unlikely to spend 42 minutes in better company, time and time again. I can think of no other recording that sounds so fresh every time I play it. Absolutely wonderful - and worthy of your attention.
This is brilliant musical craftmanship not just a 'collection' of songs September 19, 2008

Just flicking through PF reviews and while most rate this as a deservedly 5 stars, those who have rated less than 4 I would intepret that the depth, quality and craftsmanship of this album may have been missed. Yes, I would rate this a lot lower if I was just looking for a collection of rock/pop songs, but this is not in that genre. This also could be said to be a collection of negative lyrics which if taken out of context of the era in which they were created, you could be forgiven for thinking them somewhat depressing. By comparison, talk about depressing & much overated album/artist - I bought ColdPlay a while ago, played it once and never again - THAT was a collection of lyrically and musically depressing, droning songs, without the dexterity and musical brilliance of DSOTM.
DSOTM, as with most of Floyd's music is intricate, layered and there is always something to discover, they are not 'chuck it in the stereo' for backgound music while you get on with other things. Pink Floyd's music deserves, no, demands respect and you must commit your listening (ideally via headphones) to hear every note, every individual 'word, punctuation mark, sentence, chapter and whole book'. The themes probably as relevant today as the time the album was released. Musically brilliant - I have always said and feel that 'Pink Floyd is what stereo was invented for!', you become totally immersed from beginning to end. Whilst I am not keen on the early works (not old enough then, to relate to the experimentalism of the early albums), DSOTM brings together I feel; excellent songwriting, techincally brilliant musicianship, mesmerising inventiveness and craftsmanship. A musical journey, not a collection of pop songs!
A very deserved place indeed among the best albums of all time.
 Is anyone else bored of this, or is it just me???? September 2, 2008

Personally I'm sick and tired of people harping on about how great this album is, yeah O.K. it's not bad but there are millions of far better albums out there in all kinds of genres, check out some Drum and Bass on the Hospital Records label like "high contrast" and you will see what I mean, and no I'm not a young hoodie I'm in my forties. Sorry Pink it's too outdated now.
this is a absolutely a rock classic!! August 27, 2008

epic masterpiece August 6, 2008

Dark side of the Moon is a true masterpiece of music. It was a album i had great difficulty with at first i even proclaimed it be one of the worst albums i have ever listened to. This album makes a lot more sense on the second and even the third listen.
Dark side of the Moon somehow manages to infect your soul with great experimental tracks such as time and speak to me which are effortlessly mixed with more radio friendly tracks suck as money and the great gig in the sky.
Dark side of the moon is like a fine wine that seems to only get better with age i have lost count of how many times i have listening to this album and yet every-time i listen i find a new way to love it and some new way to appreciate it.
Dark side of the Moon is meant to depict a decline into insanity and this theme is very successfully depicted with the vocals that cut straight to your soul epic guitar solos killer sound effects and what can only be described as crazy rambling.
Dark side of the Moon continues to sound fresh inventive and awe inspiring nearly 50 years after it release.
I am not normally a fan of progressive rock but this album hit me like a ton of pricks i was skeptical at first but this albums grows on you and never leaves you. This isn't an album you will listen to everyday but when you do listen it will amaze and astound you every-time.
