Am I the only one here that doesn't like Led Zeppelin?

[Life Sucks]

I mean, I can obviously tell that they were talented musicians, but their music isn't my cup of tea. They are too soft, bluesy, and upbeat for me, and most of their lyrics are about girls and sex.

 

[Nico]

C'mon... Immigrant Song!

C'mon... Immigrant Song!

Can't say I've ever heard that song.

 

[TehLeperAffinity]

I'd say they have about 6 - 10 good songs.

 

[Life Sucks]

I'm sure they have tons of songs that are good in the sense that they are well written and played for the genre of music that they are. It's just that I'm not really into that genre.

Can't say I've ever heard that song.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing.

Led Zeppelin rule, and they certainly aren't very up beat!

 

[Krilons Resa]

Am I the only one here that doesn't like Led Zeppelin?

I hope so.

Led Zeppelin are one of the most important bands in history. Amazing band.

 

[unknown]

they were a pretty good band...jimmy page was probably the sloppiest live guitarist ever though

 

[Life Sucks]

It's just that hard rock/cock rock isn't my cup of tea. Also, lyrics like "Baby the way you move I'm gonng make you sweat l'm gonna make you groove" piss me off.

 

[Donnie Darko]

I love Zeppelin and not all their songs are about girls/sex.

 

[Life Sucks]

True. But it also that for some reason heavily blues based music doesn't appeal to me that much, except for Black Sabbath.

 

[Donnie Darko]

Black Sabbath \m/

 

[Life Sucks]

Black Sabbath \m/

Yeah, I like all Ozzy era Sabbath. Some people might find it odd that I like Sabbath but not Zeppelin, but the two bands are very different.

 

[Erik]

Can't say I've ever heard that song.

If nothing else, you owe it to yourself to listen to Dark Angel's cover on the "Leave Scars" album.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

I love Zep. I just got done listening to the "In Through the Out Door" album. Very underratred album if you ask me. "Fool in the Rain" is an awesome song.

 

[AsModEe]

I don't really care for Led Zeppelin, not my cup of tea at all.

 

[Jean-Pierre]

Led Zeppelin's lyrics pretty much ranged from "Pussy" to "Lord of the Rings". I love Zep, but if they're not your thing, whatever.

If the world were correct, Overkill would be in their position.

 

[Life Sucks]

So at least one person shares my view.

I'll give you a hint, the songs that you hear on the radio are their worst, those songs were written for the radio. Gallow's Pole, Kashmir, In The Light, When The Levee Breaks, Trampled Underfoot, Rain Song, The Ocean, and No Quarter are some of my favorites. Houses of The Holy was an excellent album, and In Through The Outdoor is very underrated.

Jimmy Page was sloppy for sure.
