It was produced by the band at their new studio, Britannia Row Studios, in London throughout 1976. The album continued the long-form compositions of Pink Floyd's previous works, such as Meddle (1971) and Wish You Were Here (1975). Animals is another concept album by Pink Floyd, that focuses on the sociopolitical conditions of mid-1970s Britain. Tensions during the recording culminated in the resignation of the keyboardist, Richard Wright, two years after the album's release. The cover, conceived by the bassist and lead songwriter, Roger Waters, and designed by their long-time collaborator Storm Thorgerson, shows an inflatable pig floating between two chimneys of Battersea Power Station. Pink Floyd released no singles from Animals but promoted it through the In the Flesh tour. Waters' agitation with audiences during this tour inspired their next album, The Wall (1979). Animals reached number 2 in the UK and number 3 in the US. It initially received mixed reviews, but gained more favourable reviews in later years, and is considered by many to be one of Pink Floyd's greatest albums. #pinkfloyd #pinkfloydreaction #animalsalbum #pinkfloydanimals #progressiverock #rockreaction #classicrock #70srock #firstreaction #musicreaction #albumreaction #pinkfloydfans #musicreview #reactionchannel #psychedelicrock #rocklegends
