A Genre Unto Itself
Pink Floyd remains one of the most influential rock bands of all time. Their music is referred to in tandem with their record breaking status.
So, what exactly has made Pink Floyd one of the most elite rock n’ roll groups of our time?
Pink Floyd was among the few bands of their era to promote albums instead of singles. Not just that, their albums were based on themes, so that every song essentially evoked the same emotion but in a different way. So for example, Dark Side of the Moon was about madness but The Wall is about the disconnect with society. Themes that resonated strongly with their audience.
Not to mention, Pink Floyd’s lyrics are sheer class. Lyrics that are profound and brilliant. Although their songs may be based on distressful and gloomy themes, their lyrics are almost never a direct reference to this gloominess. Instead, their lyrics are symbolic and metaphorical, and stand at the verge of being poetry.
