The rock stars hailing from The Dark Side of the Moon continue to make headlines decades after their most iconic albums hit the shelves.
As one example, Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters recently spoke out in response to Macklemore being dropped from Ed Sheeran‘s tour, following the rapper’s on-stage comments.
And in news more pertinent to Pink Floyd itself, the Grammy-winning rock band continues to resurface in pop culture as their LPs hit epic milestones.
Take Animals, for example, which is about to celebrate 50 years since its official release. Year 2026 marks five full decades since the English group began working on its 10th studio record, a concept album that only contains five tracks.
The kicker? Three of the songs exceed 10 minutes in duration. And like many classic albums, Animals gained more critical acclaim and recognition in the years since its release.
It’s no wonder, then, that the famed cover band Brit Floyd is hitting the road next year in honor of the record’s 50th anniversary. The group recently took to Instagram to promote its Animals 50 tour. See below.
View this post on InstagramFans have since flooded the reel’s comments section to share their excitement for the upcoming shows. “YES ! Come back to Connecticut for this please, favorite album, you guys put on a hell of a show,” wrote one Instagram user, while another person commented, “We are the luckiest people in the world to get to experience these shows!!”
