In one word: Engulfing In two words: The Wall Are these guys from another planet? Do they come from a world where people can actually write decent music? They must. In a way, this album paralells each and every one of our lives. It is about depression and repression, not being able to fight back. It is a story, in short, of a character named Pink Floyd, who is held back by a superficial boundary conjured up by society. He lives inside his own mind, but is still held captive by society. "The Wall" is everything. It has encompassed Pink's reality and forced him to near insanity. The themes that Waters displays are genius. But tastefully genius. He wrote powerful words and even more powerful songs. He wrote about the truthes in all of our lives, and for that, he should be hailed.
