Animals is the tenth studio album by English rock band Pink Floyd, released on 21 January 1977 through Harvest and Columbia Records. It was recorded at the band's Britannia Row Studios in London throughout 1976, and was produced by the band. The album continues the longform compositions that made up their previous works, including Wish You Were Here (1975).
Pink Floyd’s tenth studio album, Animals was released in early 1977. The band’s previous release Wish You Were Here was among the best-selling albums of 1975. After that, Roger Waters decided to hoard all lyrical works for the next album, Animals. The entire theme of the album is highly influenced by George Orwell’s 1945 novella, Animal Farm. Roger’s thing is to dominate, but I am happy to stand up for myself and argue vociferously as to the merits of different pieces of music, which is what I did on Animals. I didn’t feel remotely squeezed out of that album. Ninety percent of the song Dogs was mine. That song was almost the whole of one side, so that’s half of Animals. Richard Wright also spoke about Roger’s egocentrism and ideas: Animals was a slog.
