BlackDog71 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I love their description: "Led Zeppelin was the definitive heavy metal band. It wasn't just their crushingly loud interpretation of the blues — it was how they incorporated mythology, mysticism, and a variety of other genres (most notably world music and British folk) — into their sound" So true. They are the best. Glad to see other people outside this forum see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just anytime I see someone put Zeppelin as #1 for anything, it makes me happy. Just that simple. I also don't know that many people in my personal life who listen or even love Zeppelin as much as I do, so I usually get my fix on here. And the 02 show clearly showed how many fans they have.

Quix Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 How did AC/DC get #3? Most of their stuff bores me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 It's obvious they're more than just the definitive heavy metal band. Not like they needed to make us aware of that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMachine Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Ho hum, what else is new? Anyways the site has a radio in streaming that I can listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccerzubs Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Anyplace that calls them heavy metal doesn't receive my approval. They were much much more than heavy metal and even with the added description it does no justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anjin-san Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Hi all, Anytime I read heavy metal and LZ in a article,..... Yep,lets pull out the Martin's,banjos, steel guitar,and the mandolins,.......idiots,... KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdr Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Ho hum, what else is new? Anyways the site has a radio in streaming that I can listen to. That radio is a bluff. It's called "Led Zeppelin Radio" but the chances to hear a Led Zeppelin song on it are infinitesimal (if not zero). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They play lots of Zeppelin and other bands of their ilk, but you'd know that if you bothered to listen to the station before making absurd statements without doing any research.

zdr Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I was confounding radio stations (I was thinking about the radio from last.fm - yes, I'm dazed and confused most of the time). I am sorry. I won't do it again (I hope). Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangani Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Anyplace that calls them heavy metal doesn't receive my approval. They were much much more than heavy metal and even with the added description it does no justice. I agree. As soon as I read 'heavy metal' in decriptions of LZ I kind of stop reading. It's nonsense. A few songs LZ did inspired the following 'heavy metal' genre but LZ never were 'heavy metal'. I don't mind them being called a heavy/hard blues or heavy/hard rock band....which they initially were....but the term 'heavy metal' always conjures up the (wrong) imagery in my mind.

Yup, absolutely. When I hear the term "heavy metal" I picture a guy screaming in a raspy voice and an absurdly loud electric guitar in the background. LZ cannot be classified in that category, I mean don't get me wrong "heavy metal" is good to those who enjoy that type of music, but LZ is a whole different category of rock' 'n roll in itself. LedZep=musical perfection not "heavy metal" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
