I hate to burst your little bubbles kiddies,but not all[filler]is crap,alot of it is pretty good,some very good but not every song gets chosen as a single so there you have it.

The best thing about Pink Floyd is that their music doesn't actively annoy me all that much.

Hate to burst your little bubble, but filler =/= b-side

Ziggy Stardust isn't even that good.

It's cool,this post was intended for folks who actually own albums and listen to them.

If I'm listening to filler my first instinct is not to talk about how it's good filler. I just tune out until a better song comes on.

And people who have a very idiosyncratic definition of "filler".

I think everyone on the forum except K-Addict lives up to the first requirement.

Fairly related to the subject and discussions of this thread, here's a few artists whose discographies consist entirely or almost entirely of albums with no skip worthy songs:

Neko Case
Suzanne Vega
Tori Amos
Dir En Grey
Judie Tzuke <3
Barbara Morgenstern
Megadeth
Alela Diane
Arkona
bla bla bla so on and so forth

Actually, **** it. It would be easier to just list those artists I like a lot who have a tendency to miss the mark now and then. All of these have some awful songs to their name:

Waltari
Depeche Mode
Helloween
Bowie
Queen (big time... I suspect they've got more crap than gold)

lol Megadeth absolutely not.

My list of Megadeth songs that I ever bother to skip is very very short. I find most of their albums play well from start to finish. A notable exception is United Abominations.
