I just like how zepplin put things together. i'm not dogging the stones, there good to. i play guitar, and some of the first songs i learned were rock and roll, comunication breakdown, and going to california. Later i learned paint it black, my old death metal band did a badass cover of it.
Well now i understand why Zeppelin are WAY better then Floyd.Quote:

Gilmour, Waters, Mason and Wright (Barret) Have more individual talent. There are so many flawless Floyd albums, i can't name a bad one. Floyd music is so varied it's ridiculous. Every album is different. They have better songs aswell. To name a few long ones: Shine on you crazy diamond, EchoesQuote:

I do like Zeppelin, i do feel they are over rated and a lot of people see them as the best and i disagree completely. I'm just defending my fav. band, coz i don't think anyone is better! :D
BLACK SABBATH
Sabbath are amazing.Quote:

Lots has happened since the 70's though, no? Whole sub-genres that have left their mark, crossed borders, deconstructed and been reabsorbed... kinda how 'classic rock' itself developed I suppose. I'd bet most of the artists listed would themselves find this thread very narrow in scope.
Pink Floyd...
evryone who ragged on someone else for not voting for a band or not putting other bands up there should be ashamed. there are only ten choices that i can fill. i also said (opinion) which means who do you think or believe to be the greatest rock band. in my opinion i think that those where some of the greatest rock bands who believed in the music, something that Metallica doesnt (reference to their team up with the establishment to shutdown napster) anyone who believes in the music knows that it is more than making money. if metallica really cared about their music than they wouldnt have started the war against the spread of it.
i love them!Quote:

THREE DISCS on an INTRO mix...lol, i was surprised :dance:
