WHO DA FUCK HATIN ON ZEP? Am i gonna have to hunt a fool down and slaughter someone? They are the GODS OF ALL MUSIC SINCE THEIR EXISTENCE, they are immune to hatred. They created the blueprint for what GOOD music is. They span all genres from bluegrass to world music to hip hop. To say you dont like ZEPPELIN is to say you dont like music PERIOD. They had it all, they are ground zero for which ALL MUSIC is compared.

not only from a guitar aspect but from bass, drums, singing AND song-writing.

IM GOING ALL CAPS FORM HERE OUT

THEY WERE ANTI-COMMERCIAL (HARD TO BELIEVE NOW SINCE EVERYONE HAS A FUCKNIG ZEP SHIRT AND THEY ARE PLAYED CONSTANTLY ON CLASSIC ROCK STATIONS ACROSS THE US) THEY BARELY DID PRESS CONFRENCES AND THEY MADE IT TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD WITH NO PUBLICITY NO FUCKING BULLSHIT LIKE THE BEATLES. THEY HAD 4 MEMBERS, A HUGE ASS MANAGER AND A ROAD MANAGER, THAT WAS IT. AT ONE POINT THEY WOULD MAKE CLOSE TO A MILION A NIGHT AND THEY HAD THEIR OWN FUCKING AIRPLANE FOR GODS SAKE. THEY RELIED SOLELY ON THEIR MUSIC TO DO THE TALKING, AND THAT WAS ALL THAT WAS NEEDED. THEY SMASHED BEATLES ATTENDANCE RECORDS AND FINANCIAL RECORDS. THEY WOULD GO PLACES AND DEMAND 90% OF THE CUT, WHERE BANDS BEFORE THEM WOULD BE LUCKY TO GET 50% CAUSE THEY WERE THAT GOOD IT WAS WORTH IT FOR THE PROMOTERS TO RECIEVE ONLY 10% OF THE CUT. THEY WERENT THE FLASHIEST OF BANDS, THEY DIDNT HAVE THE GREATEST SOUND SETUP (LIKE THE WALL OF SOUNDS OR ANY BULLSHIT) AGAIN IT WAS ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC. THEY RESPECTED THEIR INSTRUMENTS, HELL, PAGE HAD THE SAME GUITAR FROM 69 TO 80, IT WAS KNOWN AS #1, BONHAM ONLY WENT THROUGH ABOUT 4 DIFFERENT SETS, JPJ ONLY USED ABOUT 3 DIFFERENT BASSES. THEY WERE FUCKING REALISTIC ABOUT THEIR APPROACH, ITS SO FUCKING ADMIRABLE. WHAT RIFF DO YOU HEAR WHEN THE TEAMS ARE BEING INTRODUCED AT THE NBA FINALS? KASHMIR. WHAT SONG IS THAT ON THE CADDY COMMERCIAL? ROCK AND ROLL. WHATS THE GREATEST SONG OF ALL TIME? STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN. WHAT IS THE MOST SAMPLED DRUM BEAT OF ALL TIME? WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS. WHO WOULD STRETCH OUT SONG TO HALF AN HOUR LONG DURING LIVE PERFORMANCES? ZEP. WHO WOULD PLAY FOR 3.5 HOURS WITH NO FUCKING WARMUP BAND? ZEPPELIN. ONTOP OFTHE GREATES MUSIC EVER WHO HAD LEGENDARY STORIES OF DRIVING MOTORCYCLES THROUGH HOTELS, LOBBING TVS OFF OF HOTEL BALCONIES, AND STUFFING SHARK FINS IN THE TWATS OF THE GROUPIES? MAW-FUCKING ZEPPELIN, SUHN, GET WITH IT.

QFT and also, absurdity.

Ya know, Nickleback isn’t that bad. Not a great band or even good, but I’m a little annoyed with all the weak minded folk who decide they wanna be like the cool kids and follow what band its cool to hate.

Not mad bro, just noting your overwhelming opinion Fail.

If Elvis sucks, or whatever, you might need to explain why.

you like the BEATLES? FAIL
you like ELVIS? sorry you fail again, thanks for playing.

Im not going to explain why the beatles suck, just take every reason as to why zeppelin is so awesome and reverse it, thats why the beatles suck. The beatles were ANTI-TESTOSTERONE.

ELVIS was an ICON, not a musician or a song-writer. Look at anyone of his popular songs, how many of them did he write? And why is he even fucking holding a guitar on stage when he knows damn well he cant play? Its called marketing. He was a tool, he was picked up by a record company cause of his looks and good-enough voice. He couldnt write or play, hell, if you like ELVIS you probably would like ashley simpson aswell.

Admit it, you were drawn to his gyrating hips WERENT YOU.

I am a musician and i dont like seeing talent-less tools become successful simply because the record company was able to decieve a bunch of adolescents.

You may be right.

Nah. Nickelback sucks ass.

226

Nickelback and Coldplay are two piles of emasculated shit that should never have seen the light of day.

I find much music to be weak in essence.

227

Most modern rock/alternative stuff sucks nowadays. ANY band, new or old, TODAY, sucks.

311 was ok back in the day, but AMber is the color of your energy? What the fuck is that shit?

Nickelback’s songs all sound the same.

Dave Matthews band… Unless you’re a college broski pothead, these guys have ALWAYS sucked. OMG THEY HAVE A FIDDLE PLAYER shut the fuck up.

The lead singer from Pearl jam says the same lines in every song, something along the lines of “flagabaga schlamalama dingdong onya mama… yeah heah!”

And as for the old shit,

Led zepplin had a great guitarist, but thats just about it. Robery Plant? Seriosuly? Go have someone punch your grandmother while shes on the shitter, sounds exactly like robert plant’s voice.

Rush had good guitar and drums, but how can you not want to fill your own ears with epoxy after listening to geddy lee’s voice for more than 2 minutes?

Beatles, well, im sure listening to them while under the influence of drugs had nothing to do with their success. Communism either.

And seriosuly, fuck all this screamo black metal bullshit, half of you kids all want to be “different”, yet all your shit sounds exactly the same!

Every fucking band is named something retarded like “Death Pocalypse” or “Festering Fuckbag”, and the guy basically dry-humps his guitar to make stupid OVERUSED SHITTY RIFFS, and lets not forget your OH so cool breakdowns where you all get to do swing kicks and dance around like little mating fairies to the JUGJUG. JUGAJUGAJUGAJUGA JUG JUG. JUG JUG fucking drop D open chord bullshit tuning,./,./ SO FUCKEN BADASS.

Needless to say, i don’t really listen to music much anymore.

228

I know some people will get their panties in a twist, but Goddammit I can’t (couldn’t) stand Type-O-Negative. The whole “dwahk-weeah” voice is sofakingwetahdid.

Did I mention those uber-douchebags Billy Joel and Sting?

Uh, Led Zeppelin had a great guitarist and that’s about it? John Bonham is universally regarded as the best rock drummer of all time and is also the most influential drummer of all time. Everything played on the drums in rock music today owes a huge debt to Bonham. If you ask any drummer who their influences are, they’ll all have a different list, but they’ll ALL have Bonham on it. He could do it all. The bass drum triplet? He practically invented it.

John Paul Jones is still a highly in demand bassist and was before, during and after Zeppelin. And Robert Plant? His voice isn’t for everyone, but there are only a few frontmen in rock who can stand on the same stage as him. Mick Jagger and a few others, that’s it. His vocal range was virtually unparalleled.

I doubt anyone could legitimately come up with a band whose members were a better collection of musicians than Led Zeppelin. In fact, I challenge anyone to name a band that had a more technically-proficient guitarist, bassist and drummer who is also as influential to every generation of rock bands that has come along as they were.

“Universally regarded”? Don’t think I’d say that. He had some stiff competition in the form of a toilet destroying, luxury car submerging maniac named Moon the Loon…

(Bonham was incredible, but I can’t think of a single musician who has earned an overwhelming consensus at being “THE best” at what they play…)

this is the only thing I’ll take issue with … JPJ is one of the most gifted and well trained musicians (yes, he’s not a bassist, he’s a musician) EVER. Dude plays multiple instruments better than 99% of the world’s population. When it comes to musical talent Jimmy Page couldn’t lick JPJ’s sweaty ass crack. And that’s saying a lot b/c I think Page was an amazing guitarist.

Not to mention that John Bonham is every drummers favorite drummer (give or take a few snobs). Most, if not all, drummers worth noting note Bonham as the drummer that influenced them to be drummers and most have Bonhams fucking tatoo.

So, yea, you’re dead fuckin’ wrong about Page being the only one with any talent in that band.

Oh, I thought you were talking about Rush.

Jimmy Page: Legendary studio guitarist, songwriter, producer, studio engineer. However “top of technical proficiency” isn’t really a label that many tag on him. I say this as a guitarist (25 or so years) who has worshipped at the altar of Jimmy Page.

Bruce Springsteen. I’m from Jersey and I could never fucking stand Bruce Springsteen.
