Pink Floyd: Animals [CD]

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Animals is the tenth studio album by English rock band Pink Floyd, released on 23 January 1977 through Harvest and Columbia Records. It was recorded at the band’s Britannia Row Studios in London throughout 1976, and was produced by the band.

The record continues the longform compositions that made up their previous works, including Wish You Were Here (1975). Lyrically, it is a concept album that provides a scathing critique of the social-political conditions of late 1970s Britain, and presents a marked change in musical style from their earlier work. Its production was punctuated by early signs of tension within the band, which would later culminate in keyboardist Richard Wright leaving the band. The album’s cover image shows an inflatable pig floating between two chimneys of the Battersea Power Station, conceived by the band’s bassist and lead songwriter Roger Waters, and was designed by long-time collaborator Storm Thorgerson. Though the band released no singles from the record, they promoted it through the In The Flesh tour, which prompted an incident in which Waters became agitated with the crowd, forming the basis for their next record, The Wall (1979).
