Jesus fucking Christ this sounds like ass. What were they thinking putting out a bunch of unfinished studio fuckups from a drug-fried schizo?
Do people worship Barrett so much that they'll even defend this piece of shit? I mean, I guess the more finished songs like "Octopus" and "Here I Go" are ok, but I will slash my wrists if I have to hear "If It's in You" again.
Uninteresting and unoriginal opinions on what some may call a psych-pop classic.

there's something unhinged about this record in a way that only a truly insane person could truly capture
literally better than anything Reddit Waters Floyd ever did
eat shit, prog fag

Sometimes I skip songs in it, but it is an incredible album. Just try getting anyone you know to cover it on guitar. Bet they can't. That's what you call raw talent and it can't be recreated.
The unhinged feeling is why it's so great.
It's a masterpiece.
if you want something more finished listen to his next album
its a lot better than anything post animals pf
YUM YUMMY YUM DON'T YUMMY YUM YUM YOM
I think this album is only "ok" but what makes it "ok" and not "bad" is a combination of the emotional resonance of the music and the uniqueness of it, the technically bad playing is also totally unique
Some people just don't give a fuck if music is played well, I think a lot of self-styled music nerds don't get that. Talent is not a one-dimensional thing that you either have or don't have so check a box

Go home David Gilmour
the draw is in the lyrics.
he was much more of a writer and artist before a musician. he has his own style, flippant lyricism despite simple chords on a guitar

He touched on what music truely is, if sheerly lightly, regretfully, that's rare. He's just rare in a world of idiots who should never make music even once. So, yes, he is indeed over-reveered, but he definitely has a value.. It all comes from his deep love for classical music, that he could just convey the feeling of it to a listener... That's valid, since it's didactic... Beyond that? All popular music has sucked since the hippies fucked everything up and made music a playpen for literal clubrunawaykids. #rogerbarrett
IT'S A GOOD ALBUM YOU SHITKEKS
FUCK PINK FLOYD STICK A GERBIL UP R)GER WATER ANUS
Actually I always thought this is what Pink Floyd would've sounded like if Syd stayed with the band. This Barrett and Opel are good albums but I guess it's a matter of taste. Far better than anything PF did after Obscured by Clouds.
OP might like "Barrett" more

David Gilmore produced the album you twat.

This album is only so popular because of the myth around his creation (dude locked himself on acid in a room and recorded the whole album in a few days or something) and it's stylish cover. His self-titled is a proper album, check it out
