what is so great about led zepplin?
 
why does evryone i talk to like led zepplin? i dont think they are all that good. most of their songs are kinda slow and dull(except the immigrant song).

Im not even gunna crap all over you because the Zeppelin twins are gunna write novels of hate in here, but let me try to help you before they get here, what songs have you heard?

shandapanda 06-14-2005 07:56 AM

i've only heard them recently and i wasn't expecting songs like 'you shook me' would be so blues inspired. are they always like this? i find it pretty cool...

i'm a bit dissapointed...i guess you must be tired today

Tommyrocker 06-14-2005 09:47 AM

if more people did what stu just said there would be a lot less petty arguments. he's risen above it. (applauds then kisses, perhaps even undoes one of his buttons)

If that was directed at me, I really don't know why as that wasn't a hateful comment aimed at you, but some people have their days, so Ill let that one slide.

And no tommyrocker, his responce was more instigation that peaceful resolution. At any rate, to get back on track immigrant song is not their only fast song, Achillies Last Stand which happens to be my favorite song, it just as fast and 3 times as long. I don't think its fair to judge a band, especially one with this much reputation as bad on a couple of songs. You're new Ill cut some slack, I don't need to start another fight that was unintentional.

pastor of muppets 06-14-2005 10:37 AM

ok ill fill in the holes....

wooo led zeppelin rules you have rockz in yo head! go listen to some real music!!!

TheBig3 06-14-2005 10:40 AM

God Bless you pastor, but seriously, I didn't mean my comments to be insulting, I suppose I could see how they would be taken as that, but you know when someone mindlessly craps on metallica I'll lose my mind, based solely on the fact that this argument was absurd. How many songs could you have possibly heard to make a such a statement as found in the original post.

pastor of muppets 06-14-2005 10:45 AM

i would have to agree

OK, I'll crap all over you, I guess. Judging by your username "MetalGod", I'll venture a guess that you're a metalhead. Led Zeppelin are not metal, which maybe a disappointment to you. From my experience something being "not metal" (especially hip-hop) tends to be a disappointment to most metalheads. They like songs that are fast and distorted, the lead singer to sound like he's coughing up a hairball with thumtacks in it, and the guitars to make really annoying sqeally noises that tend to make dogs howl and little babies cry. Alas, Led Zeppelin's music have none of the forementioned characteristics (unless you factor in Robert Plant's screaming in The Immigrant Song-hence, the exception to your distaste which you cited in your post.). they're progressive 70' rock n' roll. and they're fantastic. Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham, and John-Paul Jones Changed the face of music history by taking good ol' fashioned blues music and shoving it into an electrical socket to spark a new generation of music lovers and musicians, some of which you probably worship at this very moment.

Kerrang magazine readers voted Physical Grafitti the best metal album of all time in the early 90s y`know.

Mind you this is before all the Limp Bizkit & Cradle Of Filth kiddies came along

also, metalgod, zeppelin incorporated so many genres into their music. folk, blues, rock, country, electronic (certainly on their latter stuff) and even traces of reggae. every member was a master of his trade. but thats enough. i cant be bothered to argue about the greatness of zeppelin. if you dont like them then its your loss.

I <3 you. led zepplin are terrible, and in need of a serious english lesson

TheBig3 06-14-2005 10:56 PM

Nice mate, very nice lol. Yeah whats wrong with led zepps english? are your eardrums retarded or summin.

Led Zepplin are great, i dont listen to them much, but i know they were geniuses for what they did. They single handedly deliverd a whole new world of music to us and were class enough not to sell themselves when they public originally didnt favour them too much. They pioneered craploads of different styles. That alone makes them great. Even if their music aint ur thing.

this is what was so great about led zeppelin.

blackTshirt 06-15-2005 01:05 AM

i really don't get it... if you don't like them, are you seriosly waiting for an answer to your question, coming from some fans of this band??? i'm not a fan, though i like some of their songs and i really think that songs are great.

a possible answer to the "what's so great about Led Zeppelin"- the great thing is that not everyone relates to their music... fortunately, people like you don't..

you know what i'd do if i were metalgod? i would delete my username and become a monk

blackTshirt 06-15-2005 01:16 AM

me too after deleting the username and becoming a monk or whatever

PerFeCTioNThrUSileNCe 06-15-2005 01:21 AM

i would skip the whole monk thing......i dont even know if i would take the time to delete my username.

blackTshirt 06-15-2005 01:24 AM

yeah cause you're a bastard! i mean... if you were metalgod and everything

PerFeCTioNThrUSileNCe 06-15-2005 01:27 AM

..........anyways.....back to the original purpose of this thread......

oh and by the way.....if you dont like a band.....what the hell is the point of making a thread about them?

Merkaba 06-15-2005 02:38 AM

some people have nothing better to do after masturbation

PerFeCTioNThrUSileNCe 06-15-2005 02:43 AM

maybe they should try tranquilizing themselves.......or taking themselves to www.bored.com im sure they could find something there that would be better than posting stupid threads.

Merkaba 06-15-2005 02:46 AM

Na but theres nothing there to make a fool of themselves is there? Thats why they come here...unfortunatley

PerFeCTioNThrUSileNCe 06-15-2005 02:50 AM

well....they could always go run down the street nude screaming the lyrics to "i faught the law" would that be considered making a fool of themselves?

pastor of muppets 06-15-2005 02:51 AM

well yes and no...

PerFeCTioNThrUSileNCe 06-15-2005 02:54 AM

how would "no" be an option there?

pastor of muppets 06-15-2005 02:55 AM

well if you thought that was cool and other people thought that was cool then it wouldnt

pastor of muppets 06-15-2005 03:05 AM

Kurt_Cobain 06-15-2005 07:29 AM

Oh!! OOoh!! Led Zep rock!! They're so much fun to listen to. Im not saying there music shouldn't be taken seriously, coz it should. But you gotta admit there songs are fun.
Plant is a lyrical genius, and Page is the bollocks at riffs! There just a lovable band, like Queen or AC/DC, even if ya don't like there music, you gotta acknowledge there talent and pasion!
I advise the dude that started this thread listen to 'Since ive been loving you,' or 'Whole Lotta Love' and say you don't slightly wanna strum an air guitar or mime the lyrics!

anticipation 06-15-2005 01:34 PM

He's like everyone else, because his greatness inspired "everybody else" to be like him.
