Some Pink Floyd fans are up in arms about the rainbow colors that have accompanied the band's classic Dark Side of the Moon album artwork for nearly five decades.
The legendary music group announced Thursday that it was releasing a special 50th anniversary edition of what is already one of the best-selling albums of all time. The announcement was made on social media networks including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, featuring an adapted image of the iconic album cover with the prism and rainbow colors.

I think this is a ridiculous non story by ridiculous non news source
Morons. It’s a prism.
Gay.
This reflects something I've long suspected of the mark of the beast being 666 and the mark of Christ being 777. In the ancient Semantic root language that Hebrew sprang from, when the symbol used for number 6 was used in a sentence unrelated to numbers, it meant "incomplete". While the symbol for number 7 meant "complete". Some Bible scholars believe the Jews during the Bible times still used those symbols (and others) for dual meaning mainly for tradition sake even after they long quit using them for normal communication. (Kind of like a Christian today who might read a modern English translation for normal Bible reading might still quote it in King James version when speaking it at a traditional setting.) So it's possible (take this with a grain of salt) that the mark of the beast is totally incomplete (number 6 three times with three representing totality) and the mark of Christ represents totally complete.
Funny how the dvd issued for the London Hyde Park concert had a specially commisioned stained glass window style cover with the group as pious saints.

My old version works just fine.
It just looks intentioanlly gay.
Like they’re sending a message instead of going off the original.
I would have a hard time disagreeing with that.
Since this represents having colors from a light divided into a spectrum* like that?
Maybe reverse the law of gravity after that while we’re criticizing laws.
When I was maybe 11 years old Popular Science had a booklet of facts. One part said a way to memorize the colors of every rainbow in order was “Roy G. Biv” ROYGBIV which stood for Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.”
The album was released in 1973. Gays do not own the rights to colors of the rainbow. Good grief.
This. Sometimes a rainbow (or diffraction through a prism) is just what it is, not some symbol of wokeness.
Awesome album... When the prism and rainbow were actually cool to see before it was destroyed but the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ insane asylum.
The 50th anniversary issue is an obvious nod to homosexuals, whereas, the original prism refraction album cover was first released on April, 1 1973. That was about 5 years before the homosexuals adopted the rainbow flag.
The rainbow flag was created in 1978 by artist, designer, Vietnam War veteran and then-drag performer, Gilbert Baker. He was commissioned to create a flag by another gay icon, politician Harvey Milk, for San Francisco’s annual pride parade.
Article is full of BS, for it does not match up chronologically to history at all.
I remember that cover. It’s amazing it was released, a topless developing adolescent girl on an album cover sheesh
Democrats just made this up
Scorpions “Virgin Killer”, the original one, another young naked girl.
I saw the newer cover art. It’s not that big a deal. It is just another graphic depiction of the angular prism with an area of rainbow effected light.
There is no blue and lilac Trans flag or anything. There is no Co-Exist slogan stamped on it. Not every rainbow depiction is in reference to being Gay. Sometimes a rainbow is still just that; a rainbow.
Several questions about this: 1) Where can one see "Satan's Rainbow?" 2) Is there a pot of gold, guarded by leprechauns carrying tridents and huddling around a red hot barbeque, at the end of it? 3) Does Satan also have his own line of cars, cheeseburgers and bikinis?
I had it on vinyl and cassette for years before that.
"The Great Gig In The Sky" still sends shivers up my spine and "Time" was the song that woke me up every morning for about two decades. I had it programmed to play for my alarm clock.
