Hey guys and gals.
Well as you can see from the title 2 of the greatest bands ever both legends in their own right!
My question to you is......
Which do you Prefer?
And Why?
Me im with Led Zeppelin all the way! in my opinion the greatest band the world has ever saw!
Id LOVE to like pink floyd but i just cant get it i dont see what you all like about them???
Feedback welcome Guys!
Peace :)
I'm definitely more for Pink Floyd. I mean, Zeppelin has some aMAZING guitar riffs and solos but I've just always been more into Floyd, I don't know why but Floyd puts me on a little sailboat and kicks me out to sea. lol It just relaxes and mellows me out, high or sober. I like Floyd's lyrics more, too.
BTW, I like your Berserk avatar. =)
Depends on my mood..... lately Pink Floyd
Time is showing how good they are......timeless
i dont know man ! im a really open person with music!
but seriously i dont see what the big deal is. i appreciate them but come one.....
Maybe i can say i think that musically pink floyd really did something different! and it will be timeless your right
but think of the Lyrical masterpieces robert plant produced!
I mean cmon :P
Shit you like floyds lyrics more give me a few songs to check out maybe im listening to the wrong ones lol
You really don't know if you never seen them live... Welcome to the machine!!!Quote:

Pink Floyd definately, I've got this CD with something like dark side of the moon I think, don't know any of the names but I like the sound, but it's got really scratched and jumps
i really really cant believe how many of you are saying Pink floyd!
have you guys not heard the amazing likes of
Immigrant Song
Bron Yr Aur
Friends
Kashmir
Dazed and Confused
Build A Levee
Stairway to Heaven
Whole Lotta Love?
WOW!!!!!
these bands always get compared to each other and i think its completely ridiculous. they may have both been associated with the psychadelic scene but they were two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT bands. incomperable, in other words.
but to answer your question, everyone who said pink floyd was better is musically retarded. pink floyd is a lame novelty band that goth kids swear are cool because they saw their oh-so-trippy dark side t-shirt at their local hot topic. their music is like a lukewarm bath...boring, tepid and stale. how many of you guys have seen pink floyd live? if you did in the 70s, you might have noticed that they BARELY EVEN PLAYED THEIR INSTRUMENTS. most of the time they just got fucked up and mock-played to a backing track. that's fucking britney spears bullshit. just because some bald guy likes to whine about how we "dont need no education" and add some ambient keyboard noises doesnt make the song revolutionary or even vaguely talented. sorry.
led zeppelin, on the other hand, pure musical ecstacy. each and every member of that band was the master of their fucking craft, dominating their instruments, playing songs that left an IMPACT and felt IMPORTANT. you listen to a pink floyd and think "hmm, that's interesting, so what?" and then you hear jimmy page's spine-melting riffs and start orgasming compulsively. NO FUCKING COMPARISON. not to mention the band's collective sexiness, do i even need to mention the slithering, shiver-inducing robert plant? they may have stolen all of their material from 90 year old blues artists without giving them any credit, but there was more talent in john bonham's pinkie finger than all of fuckin' pink floyd combined.
and if you want to argue about it, just remember this: you're wrong.
how about Black Sabbath?
Led Zeppelin for me. I like the immigrant song . Not the hugest fan of either though.
Pink floyd, because they just kick ASS :D
But both bands kicked ass. So... i don't know really, but i listen to pink floyd more than zep.
Ever heard of these albums?Quote:

I've said it many times and I'll continue to say it:
Floyd > Zep :stoned:
ahhh, animals. Gotta love it :D Wish you were here kicks ass too. Fuck it, floyd rocks the fuck outa zep ;)
Led Zepellin is greater than Pink Floyd [both in my top 5]
reasoning: the amount of albums by Zepellin that are amazing exceeds those of Pink Floyd and both have equally good live stuff out.
fav ALBUMS: Meddle, IV, Houses of the Holy, Physical Graffitti, Wish You Were Here, Dark Side of the Moon
[btw: the doors fucking rock too]
I'd probs choose Zeplin, cos my bands covered a few of their songs when we was new...
And i can play almost every song they've done on bass...
yeah, my personal favorite Pink Floyd song is "Dogs." And I would definitely tip my hat to Pink Floyd over Led Zeppelin. Grateful Dead and the Beatles are up there too.
Pink Floyd-- one of my top three favorite bands of all time, along with the Grateful Dead and the Beatles. My personal favorite song is "Dogs"-- be warned, it is 17 minutes long, but it's a journey!
I like both
and have been fucked up and listening to them for years
Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?
Come on, now.
I hear youâ??re feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant shipâ??s smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I canâ??t hear what youâ??re sayinâ??.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I canâ??t explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.
Ok.
Just a little pinprick.
Thereâ??ll be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe itâ??s working. good.
Thatâ??ll keep you going for the show.
Come on itâ??s time to go.
There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant shipâ??s smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I canâ??t hear what youâ??re sayinâ??.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.
I've been listening to Zeppelin a hell of a lot lately, so I'll go with them for this thread. It's just good music that you can just turn up and walk or ride around town with or something...
heatherhatesyou put it nicely, Pink Floyd is kind of boring to me. They just kind of wander off in the song trying to create atmosphere...I just lose interest in it. Although I very much enjoy Pipers at the Gates of Dawn, after that album I just can't really enjoy the music without being in a mood for it. Besides most people I've talked to about Floyd have never even listened to Piper. It's always Animals, Dark side of the Moon, or The (fucking) Wall.
i dont like piper at the gates of dawn, some of the stuff is good, but i love david gilmour, he has some amazing solos, comfortably numb and time are probly my 2 favorite songs

Hmmm, I'mma have to go with Zeppelin just cause I usually have to be in the mood for Floyd since its real soft and all.Quote:

I haven't heard Saucerful of Secrets yet, I'll have to steal it from the internet.
Personally, I think Dark Side is overrated. Yeah, it's good. But it isn't even CLOSE to their best. Same with The Wall, at least the song by itself. I love the movie, but still, it's not their best.
The best of the best is, yes, Animals, but also Momentary Lapse of Reason. I love that album so very very much. Learning to Fly, Dogs of War, One Slip, Sorrow, fuck! Every song on that album is fucking golden!
And Zepplin's really good too, but I'm nowhere near as familiar with them.
both.....
SUX!
You sad sad person ! lol

Yeah, pink floyd is deftinly trippier to listen to baked. But both great bands, but i think floyd is more unique, i've not seen one band that is anything like floyd, they are very original.

pink floyd of course. floyd is just way trippier, more complex, more intense, and just better all around.

And Mary, i'll get you some from a live Album my band's got, dunno when though, we'll talk on msn ;)
I prefer Led Zep. over Floyd. Floyd is sleepy time music for me. It's just so dreamy and lazy. Led.Zep. rocks the blues and good rock n roll. Something you can really get into. Floyd doesn't progress I find. They just stay at the same beat, tempo, and nothing builds up. You wait for the rockin part...but the rockin part never comes.
