poser.
Savage Clone: i agree, the floyd until around 1972 is their prime, but it wasn't because of the "madman genius" of syd barrett. after that, pink floyd is not as good, i still like them though; it's just that's very hip to say "pink floyd after syd barrett sucks" because that's what critics and post-punk bands in the late 70's used to say, and people just repete those words, like parrots
