Led Zeppelin

[crash0814]

Haven't seen a whole lot of talk about classic rock on this board (too many metalheads I think), so I'd like to ignite some by saying, "LEAD ZEPPLIN ROOLZ!"

[Dole]

'Hammer of the Gods' is a very entertaining read...
I fucking love John Bonhams drumming, he was a total inspiration to me. In cleveland rocknroll hall of fame I got within drooling distance of his kit....mmmmm.
He used to tape a 2 pence coin to the skin of his bass drum to give it that real thud.
I don't like all their stuff but they have made some undeniably classic songs, Kashmir....houses of the holy...immigrant song..

[Helm]

They're okay. Definately a bit overrated, I think. Never liked them too much besides their few hit songs.

[crash0814]

Immigrant Song and Kashmir kick ass. I'm not fond of Houses of the Holy (the song and the album, actually).

[Rongi]

They bore me to be quite honest :/

I like what they did with the Beastie Boys though.

[Ronnie Raygun]

No way in hell they are overrated.

[crash0814]

How can Led Zeppelin possibly bore you?

[Ronnie Raygun]

The same way a science book is boring to a pig.

[Rongi]

Whatever.

Last time I checked people where allowed to have things called an "opinion". I dunno if you've heard of it.

[crash0814]

You can have all the opinions you want, but I disagree with you on this one.

[The_voice_of_reason]

I got my dad the new Led Zepplin DVD for fathers day. It kicks more ass than i care to describe.

[Ninjavenom]

I agree with Helm. Fun music to listen to, but not as great as they're acclaimed to be.

[kellychaos]

I grew up with classic rock stations and got burned out on Led Zepplin. I still like them and will listen to them when the mood strikes but I'm not one of those fanatics who think that they're "rock gods" or something. Anyway, if I want to hear some group do covers of old blues songs (or, in some cases, at least using the same style) I'd rather listen to Stevie Ray Vaughn.

[crash0814]

They started out as a bluesy outfit, sure, but they didn't really stay that way.

[kellychaos]

There were blues songs on "Coda" ... their last album.

[DemonOfTheFall]

I have a lot of respect for zepplin because metal probably wouldn't be here without them... they pretty much laid the foundation... as for their music, eh i think its a little overrated, but not bad

[Drew Katsikas]

I can listen to a song or two by Zepplin, but they frigging bore me if I try an album. They're music is certainly innovative and original, but they copy themseleves from song to song. Listening to them often would certainly become stale.

[crash0814]

Some of their albums are more diverse than others. Led Zeppelin II is a bit hard to listen to because the songs sound pretty much all the same. I, III, and Physical Graffiti are fucking brilliant though.

[Zebra 3]

>: - IV rules!

[Rongi]

I hate to contribute to bumping an old thread but I have to say to this day Led Zepplin don't do anything for me. Stairway To Heaven was a snore and I think The Immigrant song was really cheesy.

[huond]

fuck you rongi :tear

[Rongi]

sorry huond I take it back :(

[huond]

best frends 4eva :(

[Bobo Adobo]

I think The Immigrant song was really cheesy.

Your guys avatars are really cheesy. :/

Zep is the shit, because of Bonham and John Paul Jones :rock . Page and Plant can go rub eachother's sellout ass.

[ScruU2wice]

I like alot of there songs i've heard, but there's some songs that sound like blues that i don't like. It's pretty unconsistent to me.

:/
