Rating: ** out of ***** Pico-review: The Wall, done noisily and/or sloppily. Micro-review: In spite of this, many parts appeal to me, though some parts are quite a bit less artistic than The Wall. Review: Well, if this is The Final Cut of Pink Floyd, they probably should have stopped at The Wall. It doesn't have the overall appeal that The Wall certainly had. Picking a side, I'd say that side 1 is much better than side 2, though I like the title cut. Side 1 is noticeably quieter than side 2, but more importantly, it is more musical. All in all, it's an OK album, but I do regret paying $6.99 for it.
