1. Defanatly one of my 5 favourite bands. Not the best though (U2 obviouisly )

    What is everyone else's opinion on one of the best Hard Rock bands of all time?

    Personally, I think no song of Led Zeppelin sucks and every album is epic. The only band along with U2 that I can listen to the whole catalogue of songs for a whole day.
  2. I love this band too, but lot of their songs are covers or rip offs of the blues classics like Robert Johnson, Cream and others. Yeah, Jimmy Page is smart as paint ...
  3. LZ are on my Top Five too. And Stairway To Heaven is undoubtely the best song ever, ever, ever.
  4. I downloaded the Mothership album on iTunes 2 years ago or something...don´t know why?!

    Later i recognized that i did very well in buying this BIG piece of musical history!!

    And everything got even more intensive after watching It Might Get Loud
  5. No point in discussing it, but for me they are way better than U2. They were very important for the development of hard rock and heavy metal. Great albuns. Not all of them are great, but there are some real good songs on all of them, and some of them are really good from start to finish.
    Great live performances too, lots of jams.
  6. I can appreciate what they did for rock n' roll, though I have my own opinions about it, too, and they probably won't be too popular...but anyway, with that being said, I can't really listen to these guys for more than an album's worth.

    I feel like they tried to make everything they did TOO epic. Kashmir? Epic. Stairway to Heaven? Epic. But to have basically an entire disc's worth of "epic" material? To me, that just screams "let's play the song, but leave the recorder on for another few minutes and just jam. It'll be epic!"

    Songs like "Houses of the Holy", "Trampled Under Foot", "Communication Breakdown", etc....those 4-minute rock n' roll masterpieces that literally sound like the 1970s, are where it's at for me, in terms of LZ.

    I was like you about a year ago. I couldn't be bothered listening to an album's worth where there was 6-10 minute songs. But only a couple of months ago, I got listening to them. I listened to all their albums (except Physical Graffiti) in a week. You just have to get really listening to them, that's all. All albums of them are epic, maybe not all songs but all songs are good at least.

    Don't get me wrong- I could listen to IV front to back, back to front, front to back again all day, every day. I think it's one of the best cohesive albums devised to man.

    Physical Graffiti is similar...I own that one too, and it's similar to the way I feel about many double albums- if they would have condensed that into one album as opposed to a double, it would have been KILLER. I mean absolutely stellar.

    Hopefully I'll grow more into the longer stuff...we shall see..

    I do like IV but 1 and 3 are better imo, 3 being the best. I love the acoustic stuff.

    I don't own Physical Graffiti and I really want it + the live albums.
