I own all their albums. I've listened to each of them several times, and I rank several of their songs among my favorite ever. I don't like them very much on the whole, it has nothing to do with me trying to look cool or whatever. I've listened to them enough to know I don't like them.

You're not even arguing with what I said. I agree that they sound like Led Zeppelin, but they're much druggier and the vocals aren't annoying as hell, like with Zepp.

Spot the contradiction!

Hold on, since when does not liking a band force to hate all their songs? The two songs I really love (When The Levee Breaks and Achilles Last Stand) sound very different from the rest of their work.

Several of their songs implies you like more than one or two as your favorite in which case running around insulting them all the time is pretty hypocritical.

ProggyMan · 05-19-2008, 03:28 PM

Well, seeing as I think most of their discog is **** I don't see why.

**sleepy jack** · 05-19-2008, 03:32 PM

Because you "rank several of their songs among your favorite ever."

ProggyMan · 05-19-2008, 03:46 PM

And I think most of their songs are crap. And the ones that I like don't sound like most of their songs. So...

Especially since this has a lot more potential to turn into an all out flame war.

I'm like.... A prophet... Man.

Proggy you're just trying to be cool. And you're not making any sense whatsoever. Achilles and Levee sound just like Led Zeppelin. Theres no departure there whatsoever.

He's more attacking me than defending them.

I'm not really attacking you I'm just pointing out how your opinion is a complete contradiction which if you think is attacking you okay I'm just showing you what you said. I think boo boo's right you really are just trying to be cool.
