I know, this is almost too absurd to have as a poll, but it's gotta be done. I think what I'll do is have a "loser's round" at some point after all the official voting has been done, so that the most popular album that's been voted out will still have a chance at the #1 shot. Anyway...three days! Get on de bus. ------------- Heaven's made a cesspool of us all. |

| Dark Side of the Moon is by far the more mature and fresh album out of both, but Obscured by Clouds is like a son of mine (though I don't have one yet), love it to pieces and though it'll grow up, I'll always be pleased with it. |

Really? I always liked the ringing. I also can't picture the entire album being brought down because of that.
 Dark Side. ObC never fully clicked with me. |

| Dark Side, obviuously. However, it would be nice if the next round could be somehow altered. It would be a mistake to have Wish you were Here vs Animals (and as a result one of them disquilified) so early on this "tournament". That one might just as well be the final. |

Like I said, I'm going to do a Loser's Round after the straightforward voting, so whoever gets counted out isn't necessarily out for good. ------------- Heaven's made a cesspool of us all. |

Dark Side Of The Moon of course, one of the best Prog albums ever. Obscured By Clouds, on the other hand, is one of the most obscured Pink Floyd albums. ------------- A Elbereth Gilthoniel silivren penna míriel o menel aglar elenath!

One of my favorite albums by Pink Floyd (Obscured by clouds) vs. my least favorite album (Dark Side of The Moon) Guess I'll take Dark Side, since the question is which album is best and not which one is my favorite.

Obscured by Clouds is a good album, but imho hardly a contest for Dark Side of the Moon. -------------

There is absolutely no comparison between these two albums. Ask Waters, Gilmour, and Mason. DSOTM.

Sorry, I didn't get that. I really hope both (WYWH and Animals) end up on the next phase. I guess whichever loses that round will end up winning the Loser's round. |
