Discussions of the greatest albums of all time frequently mention "Pet Sounds" with the Beatles' "Revolver" and Bob Dylan's "Blonde on Blonde", which were all released within four months of each other. Journalist Liel Leibovitz called "Pet Sounds" and "Blonde on Blonde" "two strands in the same conversation, the one that turned American popular music, for one fleeting moment of one year in the middle 1960s, into a religious movement". Author Geoffrey Himes said that "Brian's introduction of non-standard harmonies and timbres proved as revolutionary" as Dylan's introduction of "irony into rock'n'roll lyrics".
