They really don't do it as well as Zep did, but if it gets more people out of that "reeee old music sucks" mindset...well then it's whatever. Sometimes it takes a not-as-good emulation to get people to appreciate the real deal.

You say Britney, I say Joan Jett

You say Lady Gaga, I say The Doors

You say Hannah Montana, I say The Rolling Stones

You say Owl City, I say Led Zeppelin

You say Justin Bieber, I say Queen

You say Taylor Swift, I say AC/DC

95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop over and over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, thumb this up, then copy & paste it to at least five videos. Don't let the spirit of rock and roll die!

people steal music in this industry pretty often, so acting like zep is untouchable when so many other artists get away with the same thing is petty to me

This band is ass tho

Album Rating: 2.5

I dont think it has anything to do with Zep being untouchable, its the lengths they go to sound exactly the same.

Watched that SNL performance, lmao these guys are douchebags of the highest caliber.

Who are you again?

2.5 kinda high now? Ok alexander

I just find the concept of this band cringey and while properly imitated, poorly executed. Doesn’t get me mad or disheartened for the younger generation or anything melodramatic like that tho.

Album Rating: 1.0

Does it make you mad or disheartened that this band has been nominated for more Grammys than Zep was during their career?

lol

Album Rating: 2.0

No, because it's already well-established that the Grammys are the big poo poo. Did ANYONE learn from the Jethro Tull win years before I was born?

Album Rating: 1.0

Yeah, the Grammys are a joke, but so is this band. Which is the point.



But on the bright side, congratulations to Led Zeppelin for being nominated for Best New Artist in 1970 AND 2019!

So I finally listened to the entire album, and here's my take.



If we were strictly talking about instrumental performances and songwriting, this honestly wouldn't be that bad. It's average bar-band hard rock, sure, but it's fun and harmless enough that I could give it a pass. In fact, Led Zeppelin really aren't the only band I hear in Greta Van Fleet. I remember the guitarist mentioning that he was also influenced by other classic guitarists like Pete Townshend, and I can certainly see that. Musically, I'd give this album somewhere between a 2.5 and a 3. Mediocre, yet passable classic rock music.



But I can't bring myself to give the album that kind of score, and it all comes down to the atrocious fucking vocals of Josh. He is 100% the sole reason I hate this album as much as I do, and his stupid faux-Plant bullshit is probably the reason the band get compared to Zeppelin as much as they do. But even then, Josh still sounds a million times worse than Plant. It's like he took the style and mannerisms of Plant and made them much more screechy and nasally, which just sounds like the death of music

This band is going to change to change to history of the rock music mark my words. You guys are just like the Athenians who sentenced Socrates to death.

wut

Theyre going to change the history of rock music by sounding exactly the same?...ok....

From this point onward people will realise the fetisisation and gentrification of classic rock deserves to end. Years from now people will look at this band as a legend.

Im sorry, but that made me laugh my ass off.

People realized this with Wolfmother anyway.
