the riff's on all day & all of the night and you really got me are to me the birth of heavy rock. the distortion on the guitars is very reminiscent and influential to many of todays metal bands. and i also think the kinks did the whole britpop thing way before the 90s.

Led Zep, your dead right ! The riff on 'You Really Got Me', was the first variation of the blues that can lay claim to being 'THE' first ever rock riff.
It had never been done before.
I've said this before in your thread on the Kinks, that they are the most British of British bands. The Kinks invented Britpop!
