It's not so much about different types of people as it is about institutions and the people who run them. Dogs= capitalism, businessmen; Pigs - government, politicians: and Sheep - religion.

Little known fact: When the band went to take the photo of the floating pig at the factory for the album cover,as soon as they took the photo,the pig shaped balloon broke free and floated away into Heathrow Airport airspace. After one particular pilot radioed to control tower to report a 40 ft. flying pink pig,upon landing he was immediately taken and tested for alcohol or drugs. It wasn't until later they found out about what happened and the pilot was released. True story. Man,what I would give to hear the recording of that particular radio transmission!😂😂

Dogs, in the way I see it, are people that have had it rough in life and had to fight and scrap to make it in society, and thus take up occupations that hurt or destroy others because it’s the only way they know how to survive.

The album is a masterpiece. You'd be doing yourself a dis-service by not listening to every cut on the album.

The whole Animals album is based on the book Animal Farm. The pigs are the rich people and the greedy business people at the top, the dogs are the middle level people stabbing each other in the back and the sheep are the ones everyone screws over. So they have a song Dogs, Pigs, and Sheep. You should listen to the whole album since it is ahead of its time. All about the 1% and big companies screwing their workers and regular people

I cannot choose between the 4 masterpieces: DSOTM, Animals, WYWH, & Meddle. The Wall was my least favourite, but still pretty great.

I think the sound you asked about is a theremin. It might just be keyboard with a pitch shift effect on it. And I don’t know what definition you were reading, but the “malaise” he’s using means “a general feeling of discomfort, illness, or uneasiness whose exact cause is difficult to identify.” Animals is a brilliant album. Not a bad song on it. More Floyd plz. Never let anybody tell you you aren’t one bad motorscooter. Love.

That's Rick Wright on the keyboards. The "barking" is another synthesizer trick where someone is sweeping and pounding on the black keys of the Rhodes on the low end while someone messes with the filters on a synthesizer. I don't think they used any captured sound samples on this album. Everything is performed on instruments.

@jacoblemen

That would be cool if it was, but according to WIKIpedia.... "The middle section, in a slow, metronomic 6/4 time, is built upon several layers of synthesizers, sustaining the four chords of the main theme, with the sound of dogs barking processed through a vocoder and played as an instrument. (One dog moan is excerpted from the group's earlier recording "Seamus".) Gilmour's last word, "stone", echoes slowly for many measures, gradually becoming distorted and losing its human character, before fading out (it reappears later in the instrumental section of "Sheep"). There are no guitars in this section. Gradually, a synthesizer solo emerges, and as it reaches its climax, the acoustic guitar returns, at the original tempo, once again lively and syncopated. "

I spent a good chunk of the summer of 1986 smoking weed and listening to Pink Floyd with the headphones on.

Making you reflect, or setting the mood, so to speak, is what Floyd does best

Smoke your favorite, put on the headphones and take that head trip. Pink Floyd always delivers. ❤️.

Best Floyd album, hands down!!

“On the turning away” is one of my favorite songs by pink floyd. Its got good message to it.

This album came out when I was 16 years old. from the first time I heard It till today, It's the single greatest artistic expression of music I've ever heard. Period. End of story... you can think what you want, but you'll never change my mind.

“Dogs,” originally entitled “You’ve Gotta Be Crazy,” began as a sprawling jam that was turned into a multi-part suite about the sadness that occurs from trying to find your place in the world and getting stuck up in the race of the day to day life. Thematically, the song connives people in life who are symbolized as dogs. “Dogs,” over 17 minutes in length, is one of the band’s longest uninterrupted songs; a tour de force that requires multiple listens to truly appreciate its majesty, following “Echoes” and “Atom Heart Mother.”

Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are incomparable, there is no point trying to compare them to each other, or to any other band in the history of ever. They are both right at the top of the pinnacle, side by side. And they are miles above everything else. Facts.

In my mind Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time; but Pink Floyd is my favorite band of all time. That's just the way it is!

I was at this concert Anaheim stadium ca in 1977 it was like 100 degrees and when we found seats on the grass field the people by us said it was their 3rd day there and its going to start raining as they came up from under the ground and it did.. I didnt have to be high but of course I was LSD ty stick angel dust...pigs dogs sheep floating all over the stadium in the sky and the music shot across the stadium from speaker to speaker . I can't even describe the intensity Best concert ever.

This was the Tour I first saw them back in 77 insane show .

Pink Floyd the greatest band ever in my opinion.

Best Floyd Album EVER! Those sounds are mostly from a Moog Synthesizer.

Probably my favorite Pink Floyd song.

The fourth kind that is mentioned is “pigs on the wing” that is people that break the mold, and think for themselves. The album was loosely a soundtrack to the book “Animal Farm” by George Orwell…. Reimagined by Pink Floyd.

“they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes.” ― George Orwell, Animal Farm

Now you have to listen to Sheep from the same album. By far the best song from Animals. You will love it.

Animal is sometimes my favorite PF album. To be listen to from start to end.

I would say that the best definition of malaise in the context of this song is "a mental or emotional fog, either bringing about difficulty in critical thinking or stunted emotional levels" As for The Wall, its probably the album that most needs to be listened to in one sitting and in chronological order. Its a story through music and listening to random songs is like reading random chapters of a book out of order.

"Dogs" an epic song. Some people insists it means this or that. I feel this song can have many interpretations in relating it to your own life experiences.

"IS THIS A TRUE STORY". Yes and no. Its true in the sense there are people like this out there and the song Pigs is aimed at certain prominent people of the day. No, no one in particular.

To me, the best part of Animals is the guitar sounding like the animal of the song. Listen to his choice of distortion and how he chooses to present it. Amazing.

I listen to this whole album once or sometimes twice a week it's a beautiful journey

It is based on a true story...everyone's story. Wish You Were Here: Shine on U Crazy 💎!!

The band was also at a very stressed point in their career when they made it. A lot of in fighting,even bassist Roger Waters spitting on an audience member during this tour,which led to their following concept album,The Wall,which became the story of his self isolation and a nervous breakdown. When you get around to it,Listen to The Wall in it's entirety in one sitting. Then watch the movie of the same name. It'll take you on a wild journey. I promise you that.

Run Like Hell from The Wall!

Food is ready!!!!!

Pretty intense with those lyrics. Commentary on a lot of business and political types. This might be my favorite guitar solo from Dave Gilmore. Wow!

Nathan before me nailed it. I'll just add that the "Dogs" represent the people that do the biding of the rich and powerful, the Dogs do the dirty work. The "Pigs" are the rich and powerful, politicians, Big Tech, and Billionaires for the most part. The "Sheep" are the regular folks like you and me, just trying to get along and do the best we can. I know Led Zeppelin is your favorite Rock band, and they have a special place in Rock & Roll history, that is for sure. I also love LZ, I've seen them twice, Jimmy Page is one of favorite guitarists, (I'm a weekend warrior guitarist, lol), but there is no other band like Pink Floyd. Their body of music is unparalleled in Progressive Rock, they ARE the GOAT in Progressive Rock history! And as much as I love Jimmy Page's guitar work, David Gilmour is on another level all together when talking feel and emotion in his playing of the guitar. No one makes a guitar sing, and cry like Gilmour. One last note about these two bands, they are, and have been, for years and years fighting for sole position of 2nd place for most albums sold worldwide in R&R History. They are both currently around 350 to 400 million units sold worldwide, and that fight no doubt will continues for years and years as more and more young people, like yourself, hear their music and enjoy it! I think 2nd place is the highest position either band could attain, when you consider the 1st place band is currently at 800 million albums ww, and counting!,........ that of course would be the Beatles. Anyway dude, you are fun to watch, and you're smart, unlike some other reactors out there. lol. Hey man, if you want to see and heard a smackin' dope song performed live by PK, check out,...

I listened to and enjoyed Pink Floyd from the early 70ies. As a young man in the NAVY. I attended a Pink Floyd Concert in 1976, My ears rang for three days after that blissful event. Later on in life I read somewhere that this particular concert was in the Gunnies Book of World records as the loudest open air concert to date. I've attended at least fifteen Floyd concerts all around the world. No two the same. One of the Greats of my era

Had some good trips listening to the album

This is one of those songs that you lay back, take in, and realize it's an experience on so many levels, sonically and poetically in particular.

this is just life

The Greatest band ever...& David Gilmour man,The Guitar God 🎸🙏🙏

Listening to Pink Floyd one song at a time is like reading a single chapter of a novel out of context. You need to do a "drive to work" of Animals. And don't even try to do "The Wall" in segments. That is a single thought spread over 90 minutes. I remember my days in architecture school, listening to "The Wall" as we worked, then having to take a break to collect ourselves. Powerful stuff.

Music is feelings in the form of sound and the words to the song heightens that feeling. Pink Floyd takes you on that journey in every song.

For the purists, almost all sounds on Pink Floyd songs are created or recorded by the group. They almost never use "canned sounds". This song, like most Pink Floyd song, is like a movie score. The music (and few lyrics) guides you through your own life's experiences and the movie occurs in your head. So close your eyes and listen, it's for you alone!

You summer story/face had me ROLLIN!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Those were facts as well. 😂😂😂

You'd probably like Coming Back to Life off their Division Bell album. Live from Pulse. It was the first song I ever sent to the Woman who is now my Wife.
