ROUND 4: The Dark Side of the Moon vs. Born to Run

Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon (1973) Genre: Progressive rock, psychedelic rock Singles: Money, Us and Them Grammys: N/A RIAA Certification: Diamond (15x Platinum) Rolling Stone Rank: 55

Pink Floyd's eight album and an undisputed masterpiece, The Dark Side of the Moon is a melancholic reflection on the heaviness and woes of human life and a meditation on the deterioration of the mental health of Syd Barrett, one of the band's founding members (who had left years before the album was made). Each side of the album was recorded as one continuous piece of music that flows effortlessly in and out of songs and themes in a mirror of the unceasing flow of time. The Dark Side of the Moon remains as haunting and immersive today as it was when it was released, challenging listeners to reflect on their anxieties and the shared struggles of humanity.

*This album is preserved in the National Recording Registry.

Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run (1975) Genre: Rock and roll, pop rock Singles: Born to Run, Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out Grammys: N/A RIAA Certification: 7x Platinum Rolling Stone Rank: 21

Described by one author as "the essence of fifties rock 'n' roll and the beatnik poetry of sixties folk-rock, projected onto the battered spirit of mid-seventies America," Bruce Springsteen's third album would be the first to break him through into the mainstream. Born to Run is an album preoccupied with the fantasy of escape, echoing much of the country's crisis of faith in the American Dream in the wake of Vietnam, Watergate, and the '73 oil crisis; this relatability would help the album accomplish its goal of mainstream success, rocketing the Boss to lasting stardom as an American icon.
