C0mmunicati0nBreakd0wn Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I think Led Zeppelin needs it's own category of music, it's to hard to put it into just one ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ady Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I was also wondering if AC DC had written at least ONE beautiful song in their career,something like a ballad, but I don t think so(maybe TNT....) This would be the closest thing to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsDpwb3ILxM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glicine Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Why is that funny? You may not like anything new out there but plenty of us do Back in the early days of Zeppelin there must have been people LOLed at them, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamarine Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Not in the very early days, but certainly in the wearing-ladies'-clothes days. It still seems odd to me to think the whole idea of liking new music is funny, though. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonzoLikeDrumer Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 AC/DC did a soft and sweet song called, "Love Song", it's on the import (from Australia) of TNT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenguitar Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Back in the early days of Zeppelin there must have been people LOLed at them, too. The early days of Led Zeppelin: Whole Lotta Love, Thank you, Dazed and confused, Good times Bad times,Ramble on, Heartbreaker.Nothing very laughable..... That's the difference with the Jonas Brothers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the difference with the Jonas Brothers But that's your opinion and while I agree that those songs and the band are amazing, not everyone thinks or thought that way. I don't like the Jonas Brothers but millions do. It's all subjective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zachman Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 The only thing remotely metal about Led Zeppelin is in the name! bs they were a bunch of things.. now polka idk but i mean christ jazz in 77' when they would jam for minutes on end to no quarter and i guArantee like dave grohl said" heavy metal wouldnt exist without zeppelin.. if it did, it would suck! to say they didnt have a substantial influence on metal and metallica in particular is musically wrong.. were they metal idk.. they were a ton of things which is why people that dont like zeppelin still saythey were damn talented and very versatile.. thats a sustaining legacy in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahfin Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 to say they didnt have a substantial influence on metal and metallica in particular is musically wrong. I don't think anyone is saying they weren't influential to other artists that supposedly are "metal", they're just saying Led Zeppelin weren't metal themselves. Which begs the question, of the artists that supposedly are metal, tons of them have also done power ballads, does that take them out of the running? It's even been said Stairway To Heaven is the prototypical power ballad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djzoso Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 the beatles inspired nirvana but the beatles weren't grunge right so zeppelin could of inspired metallica or any other metal band and not be metal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Levee Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I would classify some of their songs as metal. Like Immigrant song. It's about vikings, how much more metal can you get. Maybe if the term was used back then, they would be considered metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if the term was used back then, they would be considered metal. Logic? Even if the term had existed back then, they STILL weren't classed as metal (or any other word that meant the same thing).

glicine Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Logic? I was about to ask the same. I don't see the inevitable connection between "Viking" and "metal". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonzoLikeDrumer Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I was about to ask the same. I don't see the inevitable connection between "Viking" and "metal". I think they are referring to the "Metal look" and the war like life style that is stereotyped with the Viking's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glicine Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I think they are referring to the "Metal look" and the war like life style that is stereotyped with the Viking's. I see this, but musically? I don't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonzoLikeDrumer Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I see this, but musically? I don't see it. How much Metal do/have you listened to? I've been listening to it for decades! I hear all sorts of "paganism", "kill'm all", "Oden Rule's" on lot's of Metal song's! Not to forget all the artwork on there CD/album cover's!

I was saying the connection is not "inevitable". The term Viking has existed looooong before Metal music came up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamarine Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Not to mention Immigrant Song existed long before all those albums. Again making the point that saying they influenced later metal bands is a whole lot different from saying they were metal themselves, which they simply weren't. Period.
