lzzoso Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I will say that I think/feel that "No Quarter" is the perfect song to hear/play during the late fall/early winter. To me it sets the mood for the rest of the winter season: "Close the doors, put out the light You know they won't be home tonight The snow falls hard and don't you know The winds of Thor are blowing cold They're wearing steel that's bright and true They carry news that must get through..."

bouillon Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 For all those people who bought the studio albums on the days of release Autumn and Winter for them all apart from Houses were released in those seasons and Houses was Spring ....just a different slant on things. PG and Presence were released in spring, and ITTOD was released in the summer. With all the acoustic stuff, LZIII seems very evocative of springtime, rebirth and open spaces, after all that claustrophobic blues hollering on I and II.

BlackDog71 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Spring= Houses of the Holy (The Rain Song and The Ocean just remind me of spring. Maybe all the water references and all the rain). Summer= IV (Best album for me to blast with the windows down, and my arm out the window). Autumn= Zeppelin III (The vibe of the album is very relaxed and moody. It reminds me of the Autumn season all together). Winter= Physical Graffiti (The album has a very warm and hard rocking vibe. It seems to do a good job contrasting the coldness of Midwest winters here in Chicago). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I put "Houses of the Holy" as my Spring album, I 100% agree with you on this. I always thought this was the best Zeppelin song to listen to while driving through snow. The lyrics and overall atmosphere of the song work so well with the images of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Love That I Found Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 The more I think about it, the more I find that the albums tend to follow the seasons (starting with Autumn). Led Zeppelin and Led Zeppelin II have always struck me as great "autumn albums". While III, IV and Houses conjure up many snow-related memories for me (for whatever reason). At the same time, Houses and then Physical Graffiti also seem spring/summer friendly to me. And Presence and In Through The Out Door have always been reminiscent of summer in their "style" and moods. Having said that, there's no "wrong" season to enjoy any of the albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
