Descripcion en Español (Urraca3k):

Tercer disco de esta seguidilla Animals, excelentisimo disco de Rock Progresivo de Pink Floyd, algo totalmente alucinante. El album parece inspirado en la novela de George Orwell "Rebelión En La Granja". Pink Floyd, en este disco "califica" a los seres humanos en tres distintas clases de animales...Perros (el tema "Dogs") que representa a los empresarios megalomaniacos, Cerdos (el tema "Pigs (Three Different Ones)) que representa a los politicos y moralistas, con referencias a Margaret Tatcher) y Ovejas (el tema "Sheep") que representa a los seres humanos que no pertenecen ni a los cerdos y ni a los perros y siguen ciegamente a los perros y los cerdos

Description In English (By Wikipedia):

Animals is a concept album by English progressive rock band Pink Floyd, released on 23 January 1977 in the UK and on 2 February 1977 in the U.S. The album proved a success in America, reaching #3 on the Billboard album charts. However, it was on the American charts for only six months even though it has continued to sell solidly, to the extent of its having gone quadruple platinum, according to the RIAA.

The album appears to be heavily inspired by George Orwell's Animal Farm [citation needed] as, through the central three songs, Roger Waters uses three animals as anthropomorphic metaphors for human behavior: dogs, pigs, or sheep. Dogs are used to represent the megalomaniac businessmen who think they are in control but are finished by being dragged down by "the weight [they] used to need to throw around". Pigs refers to and is an attack upon those who are really/would be in control, politicians and opinion leaders, with direct references to Mary Whitehouse, who at the time was leading a campaign to "clean up TV". Those who do not fall into either of these two categories are sheep, who follow blindly, without any self-thought.
