Rather New Pink Floyd Fan

Hey, I'm from England and I'm 20 years old. I just started listening to Pink Floyd about a month or so ago, after finally growing tired of listening to emo bands that all seem to sound the same. I've always been a huge fan of Radiohead, and I found a lot of other Radiohead fans recommending that I listen to Pink Floyd - as apparently some of their music is somewhat similar. Now that I've listened to some of their music, I can say that I don't totally agree with them about the similarlity (except for the piano in The Great Gig in the Sky, and the fact that you have to listen to their songs a lot before you start to like them).

Anyway, yeah... Pink Floyd are great, and I can't believe I never bothered to check them out before. It's especially refreshing to find them, considering the standard of music at the moment is very poor.

Re: Rather New Pink Floyd Fan

Welcome, CC, we're always glad to have a new fan. There's a couple Radiohead v. PF threads you might be interested in reading.

And, the obligatory mod rant: Please take a couple minutes to read the Rules & Guidelines link at the top of the page. It's worth it.

Welcome to the site, Radiohead is my favorite band. You have excellent taste.

And you're right, most emo bands sound the same. Especially local ones.

Their haircuts are what bother me the most.

Anyway, welcome to the forum.
