Roger Waters is a narcissistic, overrated, self-indulgent hack. He has the lyrical depth of LiveJournal poetry, no musical chops to speak of, and alienated literally everyone who ever worked with him. He somehow convinced himself he was successful in spite of the bandmates that contained his overwrought, faux-pretentious horseshit, and turned Pink Floyd into a vehicle to make cringe-inducing, off-brand Andrew Lloyd Webber-style "rock operas".
His post-Floyd works have the subtlety and smug self-satisfaction of an older, ponytailed uncle lecturing kids about Ronald Reagan and corporations while adjusting his socks and sandals. The sonic aesthetics skew toward "terrible" and "dated".
The only people who find The Wall or The Final Cut deep are moody teenagers that are so terminally uncool that they lack the capacity to find a better band to be obsessed with. The only people who like his solo albums have voted for Ralph Nader in the last 8 presidential elections and wipe their ass with hemp toilet paper.
Fucking hate this retard
He's a prick who capitalized on emerging technologies of the 60s and 70s. He has no actual natural musical talent to speak of, nor any degree of personal likeability.
Gilmour and Wright carried the band; Waters' (non-musical) ideas only gave it an intellectual edge. The band's music declined as he wrote more songs - he turned the music into a mere vehicle for lyrics, instead of appreciating the music and respecting it as a holistic sonic experience. If he wanted to tell stories with music, he should have just written and created dramatized audiobooks.
For the record, I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd - i.e., the band this egotist almost destroyed.
based for hating israel
dont care for his music though
He is a pretty good lyric writer
No he isn't, yikes
Okay Gilmour
He used to be; I thought the lyrics on his latest album were quite subpar

yeah i think he's a talentless hack
I haven't listened to the newer stuff. What are your favourite Waters lyrics user
Ok boomer
I thought his peak was on Amused to Death; but in terms of Pink Floyd, I think his best were on The Final Cut.
Ok I'll check out Amused to Death thanks user
Glad to help, I hope you like it as much as I do
Hating Roger Waters is as contrarian as it gets, keep it up Any Forums! We certainly dont come here for the quality music takes
He was an amazing songwriter and anyone who says otherwise is not worth taking seriously. You wanna see how bad and structureless pink floyd can get? Listen to ALMOR and contrast it with any album before it and youll see what Waters brings to the table
you sound mad
