I....I Don't find Led Zeppeling to be that good...

[Jordan]

Besides Stairway to Heaven which I admit is amazing....I have yet to come across another song of such calibur..

Throw out some titles and I'll give em a go, cause atm I don't really see why everyone loves em so much..

[demonoid]

Actually i feel the same too.
I think its bcuz I've listened to every single album/song by them...Now I'm sick of it for some reason :squint:

[SatanTheSith]

I don't like them much either.

[Gooser]

Err, Ok?

Try checking out some of the lesser known songs. Get Led Zep 1, 2 and 3.

[GALLIENVS AVG]

Kashmir
The Rover

[Jag dammsuger]

The Ocean

it's a good song

[Solaris]

Led Zeppeling?

[WilliamCarrion]

Thats because Led Zeppeling is a bunch of uber fags. Now Led Zeppelin , on the other hand, are pretty decent.



Had to make the joke but honestly you have to be into that kinda blues rock to get them, I think.


Edit. Fuck you, Solaris, and bring back the french knight avatar.:banghead::wah:

[Edgecrusher]

Most people take them for face value, which is why they get bored of them easily.

[Piss Twink]

Most people take them for face value...

Most people are fucking dipshits.

[slapnpopbass]

Most people are too shallow and lazy to listen to the rest of their stuff.

[familyguy]

No quarter

Over The Hills And Far away

[Pajman]

Led Zep was hardly hard rock. They were a pop rock band that made music that appealed to the masses.

Do not feed this troll.

oops

[Gooser]

lol


couple of songs to listen to;

Babe im gonna leave you - great haunting fingerpicking acoustic song
d'yer mak'er - id say this was reggaeish
achilles last stand - if you dont like this, give up on them now
since ive been loving you
tangerine
bron-y-aur-stomp

Dont feel as though you have to like em, just because they're classed as a legendary band. I couldn't get into rhcp when i was younger, even though everyone else loved em. If your still adamant about wanting to like em, seriously just buy some of the lesser known albums and give am a listen.

[Pajman]

I said that they were hardly hard rock. They were a good pop rock band. End of story.

[NRS]

Led Zeppelin contributed huge time to heavy metal so one that says they're pop rock knows shit about music history.

[Pat The Baker]

Fool In The Rain is awesome.

[Edgecrusher]

Oh, okay. Thanks for clearing that up.

Don't worry everybody, Led Zeppelin is just Simple Plan of the 70's.

:rollseyes

[Pajman]

Sabbath, Purple, Uli Jon Roth, etc. contributed far far more than Zeppelin.

[Edgecrusher]

. . . and who are you to say this?

Purple didn't do shit compared to Led Zep.

[Woodward]

The Ocean

it's a good song

The Ocean is just so good. I cant explain it. Its so happy.

If you dont like the Ocean you probably wont like Led Zeppelin

[Gooser]

Dont ruin this thread arguing over pointless shit.

[Pajman]

. . . and who are you to say this?

Purple didn't do shit compared to Led Zep.
There would've been no Metallica, Satriani, Malmsteen, Dio, etc. if it weren't for Purple. The devil's horns wouldn't have been the symbol of heavy metal if it weren't for Blackmore's discovery of Dio.
Just face it, Zeppelin was a good band, but there was better hard rock around.

Put a short clip up of the hardest song by Zeppelin and I'll give you something that's twice as powerful by Purple (which wasn't even a hard rock band).

Honestly, what do you even get out of this?

It's like on 90% of youtube vid comments, people just comparing guitarists to other guitarists constantly, and people going completely nuts over it.

Is this what they call immaturity? lol

[Woodward]

oh also i totally forgot about "Dazed and Confused"

thats up there with Stairway as far as quality goes

[Pajman]

Yeah, I see what you're saying, but I'm just responding. I merely stated that Zeppelin was pop rock and somehow people took offense. I even said that they were a good band.

[Woodward]

oh shit I forgot about "Heartbreaker" and "The Immigrant song"

fuck this thread Led Zeppelin rocks

[Pajman]

and "The Immigrant song"
That's gotta be my favorite. It lacks a guitar solo, but it's a fucking classic.

[Woodward]

That's gotta be my favorite. It lacks a guitar solo, but it's a fucking classic.

Yeah it makes you wonder what it would have been like if it was 5 or 6 minutes long. too bad but its still great.

[terror6o4]

you have to acquire the taste......Led Z. is not for everyone

[Edgecrusher]

Bullshit . . . the impact Led Zeppelin had on music was unmatched by a band of that time.

You honestly must not have any idea what hard rock is. Pop rock is music like Paul McCartney, Chicago, Elton John, etc. Led Zeppelin had a large emphasis on the drums, as well as guitar.

[led_head]

That's gotta be my favorite. It lacks a guitar solo, but it's a fucking classic.

Live version has a solo. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svR3iXKTJvc)

Some of my favorite songs are:

The Ocean
Ten Years Gone (This song goes so unmentioned but, in my opinion, is pure gold)
Dazed and Confused
Black Dog
Rock & Roll
Achilles Last Stand
Fool In The Rain
In My Time Of Dying (one of their heaviest songs)
Trampled Underfoot
The Song Remains The Same

And the list goes on...I could also say the 20+ live medley version of Whole Lotta Love is absolutely amazing, but every song is even better live, I think.

[Fungus Amungus]

I'm probabl the only Led Zeppelin fan that hates Stairway to Heaven.

[temp100]

Both Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple were very important bands.

Led Zeppelin was a figurehead of classic rock in general and a large influence on the development of hard rock and metal through blues.

Deep Purple was representative of many of the psychedelic hard rock bands of the era. These were the bands that bridged psychedelia and prog rock by creating a sort of proto-prog and setting the stage for prog to be delivered by bands like King Crimson and the Moody Blues. Deep Purple was also a large influence on hard rock and metal... remember that Bruce Dickinson's vocal idol was Ian Gillan.

[cobra_man]

If one wanted to get into zep, which albums would be the best starting area? Just 1-4? Or are most of the albums worth the hour download?

[GALLIENVS AVG]

If one wanted to get into zep, which albums would be the best starting area? Just 1-4? Or are most of the albums worth the hour download?

I would try Physical Graffiti.

[cobra_man]

I would try Physical Graffiti.

Thanks for the recommendation. Downloading now.

[BassGuitar25]

Led Zeppeling?

Yea. They're alright... But nowhere near as good as Led Zeppelin.

[gigglemuffin]

1-4 and then Physical Graffiti is what you need

[m11a1]

Theres few songs from Led Zeppelin that I really like but that amount of songs is nothing compared to the amount of songs I like from Pink Floyd.

[Hanz The German]

What is this blasphemy!?

I agree though i think they can be hard to get into, and they arnt for everyone

[Ernie Shiester]

OP doesn't like Led Zeppelin? WTF???

Check this out, its the ultimate Zeppelin:

I completely agree. I love Led, but I love Floyd like 20x more.

[thebassman]

Robert Plant is a slimy fuck
John Bonham man, he really sucked
Those greedy fuckers, those phoney shits
They made their money off idiots
I hate Led Zeppelin
I hate Led Zeppelin

12 dollar concerts were all the rage
They bought cocaine for Jimmy Page
"Stairway to Heaven" makes me see red
Bonzo's buried, only three more left
I hate Led Zeppelin
I hate Led Zeppelin

[Jordan]

So far out of what I've checked out, the only two songs that stuck out to me are Dazed and Confused(bass is awesome), and The Rain Song (Mainlycuz I was stoned when listening to that)

The hunt shall continue

Achilles Last Stand. You must listen to it.

[GiveItAway]

Led Zeppelin worked/work as a unit far better than any other band. Every member was strong at their own instrument but the band as a whole and how they communicated musically is what makes them legendary. If you don't like their music then there's nothing you can do about that, but there's a lot more you can learn from Led Zeppelin than the intro to stairway to heaven.

[thebassman]

epic win

[Al Paccioli]

Trampled Under Foot, bitches (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNjv-9YA3U4)

[-NR-]

Achilles Last Stand (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq-XVONVX7k) is the best song ever.

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing, JJ Cale - Cocaine, Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit may all be the best songs ever... but in the end Achilles Last Stand will always win... Always.

[Mr. Heskey]

Moby Dick
Immigrant Song
Dryer Maker
Physical Graffiti
When the Levee Breaks
Dazed and Confused


And My all time favortie song from my all time favorite band:

Over the hills and far away.

[dannymscott14]

fool in the rain
thats the way
babe im gonna leave you
black dog
the ocean
no quater
over the hills and far away


all amazing songs

[Rising_Boognish]

fuck this, how come nobody has mentioned "Friends" or "In The Light"?
both those songs are awesome, though i wish Friends was a bit longer.

[enna]

The Rain Song is pure genius.

Over the Hills & Far Away

Ramble On

Kashmir

The Ocean

Black Dog

led zep = best band EVER. i don't understand how you could not love them.

[18C]

You need to check out Friends, Ten Years Gone, and The Wanton Song.

I personaly dont like Led Zep. I can say i respect them for being such innovators
but i cant say i adore there music.

[BlueQuarter]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcc4hn9vV0c

Start at 3:45 and watch part 2 and 3

[SatanTheSith]

I might start listening to them, which album has dazed and confused? I love that song.

[Sander]

I cant stand it when you say you dont like a band and people post vids saying 'watch this, you'll like them now', to fuck i will. Its my opinion, leave it alone.

[_jax]

I.... I dont care...
