PINK FLOYD – ANIMALS

Description

Prolific Pink Floyd record producer and engineer James Guthrie once again has his 2018 remix album for the band’s ‘Animals’ reissued, this time on limited LP wax. A five-piece meditation on Floyd’s penchant for animalism, Guthrie’s reinterpretation yanks the Orwellian structure and themes of the original album and hurls them back into an electronic prog rock prayer, with many of the new versions impressively breaching 10 minutes. In true Floyd fashion, this is window-closed, record-sleeves-on-the-floor, bong-hitting stuff, but with an extra Guthriean darkness lended to it. Clock the pig oinks littering the mix too.
