Pardon the abbreviation in the title Long story short: I love The Wall and want more of it. No the Final Cut does NOT suffice, so I want to know if there are any other bands who have released similar stuff or are similar to the Floyd of that era. Mind you: If there's an incredibly good Prog album I'm missing, give us a shout. I'm open-minded. -------------

Check out Porcupine Tree - The Sky Moves Sideways. Not exactly like The Wall, but very Floyd-ish. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/pa" rel="nofollow - Release Polls Listened to:

I don't think that there is anything else like The Wall. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

Id get Amused to Death by Roger Waters. It's a great album - still not quite the wall but I mean it is roger waters. The thing it shares in common is the emotion in the lyrics and the great original music |

Roger Waters' solo career blows. I love the Wall at a possibly
unhealthy level, however Roger Waters lost his voice and he tried too
damn hard. Look at songs like Vera: 1 minute long and perfect at that
length. Then compare it to "Perfect Sense". That song's about 5 minutes
long when it would be better as 3. He kept going for that epic, but I
dont think he ever got there.

If you love "The Wall", you will probably like the German band SOLAR
PROJECT. Most of their albums are rock operas, delivered to neo- progressive rock backing - not my favourite style, but I think you could enjoy them. |

Get "The Fall of the House of Usher" by Peter Hammill.
