The dark side of the moon Pink Floyd

A remarkable Masterpiece of Music

In depth Analysis and Interpretation 

A pitch-black cover subliminally invites the viewers’ focus to converge on the prism and the colours as if it were in  need of exploration, or a sort of investigation. However at that time, when the album was published (1973) usually the  radio broadcasted in advanced some tunes capable of attracting the vast majority of music listeners. All the songs represented clearly each aspect of the social lifestyle at that time and which furthermore indicates why the album has been in the top 20  charts for the past 40 years, putting the seal on the Rock history.

 It is of vital importance that not only the songs spoke to us about aspects of the social life through the lyrics, furthermore they were able to give you a chance to take a dip into the unconscious side of our own  personality and the secrets in it. In fact, when you listen to those songs you are starting a journey into a deep dark space (as the pitch-black cover suggests), your unconscious side , which possesses feelings and emotions (as the colours coming out of the prism denote),which are very often kept hidden and in control in your social life, but sometimes these feelings and emotion are in contrast with the norms and rules of the society that  can turn you into nobody.

It is one of the most famous and remarkable LPs of the Pink Floyd rock band and the entire history of Rock It displays a pitch-black cover and a prism just at the centre of the LP crossed by a ray of light and refracted into each colour of the sunlight.

Starting to listen to this masterpiece of music composition you will feel initially in middle of nowhere; from the very first tune you will be invited softly to mull over the things in your life and yourself in an in-depth way, forever safe in that deep dark space without fearing contrast between the two things. Proceeding to listen to the complete songs will stir up your imagination and leave you feeling relaxed and unwind as ever.
