The All-Purpose Metal Thread: Part Deux

[Deathstroke]

Greta Van Fleet is a band that's been getting some attention lately for being really young and HEAVILY Zeppelin influenced.



Even though, yeah they are a Led Zep rip-off, they're really REALLY GOOD at it. As opposed some bands we've had to endure over the years.

When they come on the radio, I feel like vomiting.

Harsh!

But yeah, I swear every third comment on Youtube is someone saying something like, "I'm 60 yrs old! Finally the return of rock n roll!"

It's probably harsh to say, but it is what I am feeling as I listen to them. I mean, the **** that Kingdom Come took in the 80's (including from me at times) was all about how they sounded like Led Zeppelin and now you have this band that sounds even MORE like Zeppelin and they are getting hailed as the next great thing? Please.

Saw them last year for the first time and was blown away!

I'll admit, when we were young we thought this was the most unintentionally funny thing ever. There's the dime store Road Warrior setting, the dancers, the cardboard (?) guitars, and then we just thought "Out of the palace and into the ditch" was a funny lyric

Aerosmith right before they became schmaltz

Lemmy also eating the rich from a movie that I've never seen...

Never heard them til now. That is pretty decent and you can see Zepplin and Guns N Roses influences there.

Some people hear a pinch of Geddy Lee as well.

This seems super obvious, I'm surprised that there wasn't a metal cover of Thriller like 20 yrs ago

[ed2962]

But now that I think of it there was this...
