I answered the question being asked. No, they aren’t. Great band, but no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they aren’t. Great band, but no. Walter, I was just joking, I’m not like that at all. Robert Plant has been accused of being pretentious, so I jokingly said don’t be like Robert.

Metal's originators were probably bands like Blue Cheer or MC5. Zeppelin Metal ? Never. As for Black Sabbath I knew them as a Heavy Rock band ages before anyone ''tagged'' them with that Heavy Metal slur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being respectful JTM, I don’t understand, honestly why Heavy Metal is a slur, I really don’t. I also don’t consider 70’s Black Sabbath to be Metal. I’ll even go further and say that Deep Purple’s In Rock was way more Metal than Sabbath, even Speed Metal, though that term may also be a slur.

I’ve never liked the term “Heavy Metal” so maybe it’s just a case that I would rather not have it associated with anything I happen to like.

When people ask me what kind of music I like, I tell them I'm a metal head. It's a much more diverse genre than people give it credit for. I recall an interview Page gave on the radio many years ago (can't remember any other details), where he said he didn't consider Zeppelin to be heavy metal, but that he liked metal because it didn't apologize. That hits the nail on the head, I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles J. White Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I hope not and don't believe they are - not a fan at all - I never connected with their music for whatever reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesOfOneNest Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I like Judas Priest, but I don't think they have anything to do with Zeppelin. Totally different. The "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" mini-documentary is one of the best things I've seen in a while, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
