^The obscure reason for people like this thread is that when it comes to Pink Floyd there's always something diverse from one Floyd fan to another, and that will never end in my opinion.

On the contrary, I am in complete agreement with your opinion.

I honestly find Pigs WAY too repetitive and drawn out (from a guy who loves Bitches Brew) and Sheep to be...ok. Dogs is a great track, though.

Indeed Dogs is the best track on the album, but Sheep is a great track too, though. And Pigs was the one that took me longer to apreciate, and the one I like least on the album (of the 3 main songs, that is), but it is still a very good song.

At the time of it's release I found "Animals" a bit difficult to get into. Today, it's my fave PF release. It grew on me tremendously over the years.

You've summed up the appeal of prog for many. Those 'difficult' albums (which basically means the ones that challenge you) are the ones that really stick long term.

I immediately found Animals a hit. To me, it sounds like the natural progression from Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here in terms of quality, and an instinctual nod towards the growing popularity of Punk.

I didn't even know that Animals was 'rated'. I thought this was on every Floyd fans 1970's second best list.

Damn Animals with Pink Floyd is overrated!
