Is Pink Floyd overrated?

totally agree. Echoes, One of these Days, Atom Heart Mother, Careful with that Axe Eugene, Saucerful of Secrets, Astronomy Domine, Set The Controls.., Dogs, Pigs(three different ones), Sheep... rings you any bell?

All those songs above are masterpieces or at least excellent. Their psych era, though I don't like the debut that much, it influenced a LOT of bands on those times.

Dude, are they underrated? Yep.
