Good songs. Over the Hills and Far Away is one of my favourite Zeppelin songs too :). Wasn’t a big fan or presence, but Achilles Last Stand is a standout track and a great song on it’s own!

Off The Wall is Michaels greatest album no doubt. Great album to play to the ladies. They love it!

Good call on Tom, but those aren’t consecutive albums. He followed Bone Machine with The Black Rider. Though I’m a HUGE fan of his work all the way back to Closing Time, I think his best 3-album stretch was fairly recent. Also, it’s a stretch to consider Alice and Blood Money a double album (though released simultaneously, they’re very different). But whatever. These are all great and very unique albums:
Real Gone
Alice/Blood Money
Mule Variations

I was never a huge fan of Presence either. It’s a decent album, but compared to the previous 6 Zeppelin records it is disappointing.

I think it all went to shit after Physical Graffiti in all honesty mate. How could you keep that momentum going?
I’ve been listening to The Rain Song quite a lot recently. One of those tracks that takes you there.

The U.S tour after the release of Presence was a quite successful (up until Karac Plant died). But it was evident that eight years or so of touring, booze, drugs, and women was starting to take it’s toll on the band.
You’re right though. Six fantastic albums left the band only one way to go, which was down. They were a victim of their own success.

some great lists on here but y’all are definitely missing a few
Dream Theater
-Scenes From A Memory
-Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
-Train of Thought
Pagan’s Mind
-Celestial Entrance
-Enigmatic Calling
-God’s Equation
Porcupine Tree
-In Absentia
-Deadwing
-Fear of a Blank Planet (could even argue The Incident but it just recently came out though it kicks ass)
Kamelot
-Karma
-Epica
-The Black Halo
Children of Bodom
-Hatebreeder
-Follow the Reaper (my fav album from this band)
-Hate Crew Deathroll
Yes this is a ton of Progressive/Power/whatever else you wanna call it metal, but these are the ones that jumped off the top of the dome

It’s not bad. I like it a bit more than Presence.
The album is different than most Zeppelin albums. I think this has to do with the rise in popularity of Punk at the time. It seemed as though Zeppelin was trying to adapt to the changes around them in music.
Too bad it would be their last studio album.

-Small Change
-Foreign Affairs
-Blue Valentine
