    Just the time signature of “Money” is a work of art. You spend most of your time listening to 4/4 or 3/4 but Money does 5/4 7/4 apparently! in a way you don’t even notice

    Edit - haven’t listened to it in decades but now I think about it, the comments below are correct, it’s 7/4 which is even odder

      Some of my favorite bands using lots of odd time signatures are Rush, Tool and Soundgarden. Check them out if you like that about Pink Floyd!

      you should have a look into ‘King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard’

      they are extremely prolific and make use of many different odd musical techniques like wacky times sigs
