Led Zeppelin · 6 likes
1/5
Before: If I'm being completely honest here, I fucking hate Led Zepplin. I don't think they're as good as everyone makes them out to be. It also doesn't help that every music class I had for two years, this one boy wouldn't stop playing Stairway to Heaven on the guitar. So I'm going in extremely biased but I'll give it a go After: It's nice to know I'm right about something, though I'll admit I didn't expect to be extremely bored during this album. All of the songs sounded almost identical to each other, why is this album rated as highly as it is?

Reading reviews I also agree that the fact that all three of the band's albums being on the list is a bit ridiculous. I'm hoping this one is the worst of the three though, shame I got it first. This album is just deeply okay, not horrendous but not something I'd ever listen to again. Would have been happy giving it a three but it sounds unfinished in many places, the gaps in the middle of 7+min tracks give off the air of being still in the editing process.

It's alright, but I would rather listen to R.E.M. than these guys if I had to pick between the two.
