7/10 Floyd Anderson (July 20, 2006)
Being in an \"altered state-of-mind\" only makes the music more alive, not better nor worse. It\'s a great album to own. Pure genius with so much play of words from Barrett.
10/10 venk (September 13, 2005)
i disagree with "floydfan" this album is good if you like 60's music reguardless if you do drugs or not. you don't need to be in a totally different state of mind to enjoy theses songs(it dosen't hurt), these songs are strong enough to hold their own.
5/10 sammy lang (June 24, 2005)
probably the scariest music ive ever heard. Pow R. Toc H. is really good though
4/10 Floyd fan (June 24, 2004)
If you 'DONT' enjoy taking LSD or some other type of mind altering drugs, if you 'DONT' enjoy extremely psychadelic "60s" music...Then 'DONT' bother, you wont even get through half of it!

If you know this album you can review it.
