Symbolic and surreal, ‘The Wall’ defies categorisation of genre: animated film; musical; contemporary art?

I first watched ‘The Wall’ (directed by Alan Parker) when I was 15. Even then I could see the powerful messages which were being portrayed through the use of imagery, cinematography and the music and lyrics of Pink Floyd. However, to fully appreciate the depth of ‘The Wall’, the film becomes even more enjoyable when watched more than once.

So over the years I have revisited the life of Pink (Bob Geldof), a musical performer who in a drug induced state revisits his past and looks at a future where he is a powerful neo-Nazi style dictator.

The animation (Gerald Scarfe, best known for his caricatures) provides the basis for the symbolism and imagery in the film. The symbolic wall is transformed into the physical, which engulfs the soul of Pink. In another scene Pink imagines his adulterous wife with her lover. Symbolising this is the ‘copulation’ of two flowers (sounds odd, but it is effective) with one consuming the other (a judgement of his wife in how she treats men perhaps), whilst the music plays ‘Empty Spaces’, with Roger Waters’ lyrics and scathing voice urging to ‘build the wall’.

The musical arrangement and lyrics within Pink Floyd’s music provides the narration, drama and impetus of the story. Most famously, ‘Another Brick in the Wall’ is reprised throughout as a reminder of the facets and isolation of his life. ‘Comfortably Numb’ portrays the feelings of Pink and others around him as he’s escorted to his next performance in a drugged stupor.

Leading players in Pink’s life are the main concentration in his thoughts. His mother shows all signs of being the stereotypical matriarch; his wife who’s having an affair and his father who died when he was a child in the war. This is a problematic part of the film however. Pink focuses, understandably on the loss of his father, but the film does have a major emphasis on war (one example being Floyd’s war cry in ‘Bring the Boys Back Home’). Again another use of symbolism, with the war that Pink faces, but somewhat tenuous. I suspect this focus is the political thoughts of the band themselves than a major link in the film (their next album release “The Final Cut” takes on this theme as the major subject).

The concept of the film and Pink Floyd’s album excellently portray the personality and life of Pink. The symbolism is endless (there’s far too much to go through all in detail here) and it really is a thought-provoking film which is in the same league as “A Clockwork Orange” and “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest”. There is sensational animation, perfectly timed and written music and excellent cinematography, which combine in a collage to produce a cult which never loses it’s power.

Advantages: Great songs, use of instruments and brilliant innovative style
Disadvantages: Some parts seem to drag on a bit

...of Another Brick In The Wall, the livelier, up-beat version that includes the more meaningful singing by the children. However, at the end of this track comes the most amazing guitar solo suiting the album one hundred percent. After this comes more soulful guitar strumming reflecting tough times in the war. Within track ten comes a good, lively number with a clear rock influence containing immaculate guitar solos, great piano playing and amazing ...
...so brilliant. However the best part of disk one is clearly left to the end. From a powerful intro leading in from the previous track of an explosive smashing sound and bass, comes Another Brick In The Wall part three sounding very up-lifting and the kind of beat you cant resist tapping your foot to. So, on to disk 2, the final disk, with more excellent instrumental genius and meaningful lyrics. However on the first track the lyrics seem slightly ... Read review

Outstanding
Review of Wall, The (Remastered) - Pink Floyd by garethd

Advantages: Great Songs
Disadvantages: A bit on the long side

This album just shows what a brilliant live band Pink Floyd are, as the album captures brilliantly the entire double album `The Wall` (originally released in 1979), with the shows from which the album was taped held between 1980 and 1981. The album is really as good as the original studio album, and captures its electric and powerful sound from the hardest guitar riff right down to the band`s trademark sound effects. There are however a couple of ...
...namely `Run Like Hell` and `Another Brick In The Wall (part 1)`. Also this album features two tracks that were left off the studio version, namely `What Shall We Do Now` and `The Last Few Bricks`. The album is great and no doubt all of the band`s fans will buy it, but there is nothing drastically new here and I just wish the band would come up with some fresh material as it`s been 5 years since their last album. ...

Another classic !
Review of Wall, The (Remastered) - Pink Floyd by KarenUK

Advantages: Comfortably Numb is the best song ever !!
Disadvantages: There are a couple of weaker tracks

The Wall is possibly the best known of Pink Floyd's many albums over the decades, especially because of the accompanying film starring Bob Geldof as the notoriously insane pop star who shaves off his eyebrows ! The track Another Brick in the Wall was also a huge hit single, staying at Number 1 in the charts for several weeks. Personally, my favourite song on this album is the lesser known Comfortably Numb, which is also my favourite song of all time ... Read review

THE WALL was Roger Waters' crowning accomplishment in Pink Floyd. It documented the rise and fall of a rock star (named Pink Floyd), based on Waters' own experiences and the tendencies he'd observed in people around him. By now, the bassist had firm control of the group's direction, working mostly alongside David Gilmour and bringing in producer Bob Ezrin as an outside collaborator. Drummer Nick Mason was barely involved, while keyboardist Rick Wright seemed to be completely out of the picture. Still, THE WALL was a mighty, sprawling affair, featuring twenty-six songs with vocals--nearly as many as all previous Floyd albums combined.
The story revolves around the fictional Pink Floyd's isolation behind a psychological wall. The wall grows as various parts of his life spin out of control, and he grows incapable of dealing with his neuroses. The album opens by welcoming the unwitting listener to Floyd's show ("In The Flesh?"), then turns back to childhood memories of his father's death in World War II ("Another Brick In The Wall [Part 1]"), his mother's overprotectiveness ("Mother"), and his fascination with and fear of sex ("Young Lust"). By the time "Goodbye Cruel World" closes the first disc, the wall is built and Pink is trapped in the midst of a mental breakdown.
On disc 2, the gentle acoustic phrasings of "Is There Anybody Out There?" and the lilting orchestrations of "Nobody Home" reinforce Floyd's feeling of isolation. When his record company uses drugs to coax him to perform ("Comfortably Numb"), his onstage persona is transformed into a homophobic, race-baiting fascist ("In The Flesh"). In "The Trial" he mentally prosecutes himself, and the wall comes tumbling down.
This ambitious concept album was an across-the-board smash, topping the Billboard album chart for 15 weeks in 1980. The single "Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)" was the country's best seller for four weeks. THE WALL spawned an elaborate stage show (so elaborate, in fact, that the band was able to bring it to only a few cities) and a full-length film. It also marked the last time Waters and Gilmour would work together as equal partners.
