I've said it more than once, Plant's Aersosmtih thing was a total joke. Nobody get hung up on that.
I'm aware Plant is warm to them. The whole point of the link is them denying their obvious influence.Jason wrote:Lol. That article is written with so much butthurt. If you actually watch the interview, Plant was generally warm to them and the "eyeroll" was obviously Plant joking. People are clearly going out of their way to not like them. But that has been the dividing point between rock fans with this band so far. "They sound too much like Led Zeppelin" or "rock and roll is back, can't wait to see these guys to evolve". No matter what they sound like, they will always have the haters in the background whining about their sound and stealing from Led Zeppelin. Oh, the hypocrisy.DancesWithWerewolves wrote:Here, I'll copy and paste exactly what I said, and bold it above: "playing songs I've never heard before". Where it that sounds like I said specific songs sounded like specific songs? No where. It's their overall sound and style, which they apparently deny: https://www.iheart.com/content/2018-04- ... influence/Jason wrote:What Zeppelin song does A Change Is Gonna Come sound like?DancesWithWerewolves wrote:It ain't. They're really not doing anything for me. Everything I've listened to just sounds like a decent Zep cover band playing songs I've never heard before. Maybe it's why I'm not into John Bonomassa either, too much of a throwback. Hopefully they age better than John because he's just stuck in the same dad-blues-rock blandness he broke out with.Jason wrote:I bang them all equally.
Check out that 26 minute live Lover, Leaver performance and tell me that ain't among the best shit you've ever heard.
We're living in an era where rock and roll has been dead for years, a young rock and roll band rises from out of nowhere and now people are mad because they sound similar to Led Zeppelin in some of their songs. As if sounding like Led Zeppelin is all of a sudden a bad thing. lol. "But but the singer said he likes Steven Tyler!" Cry me a fuckin' river, babies.

Never heard that rumor. I don't see how it could be true. The entire band talked about their family always having campfires and singing songs throughout their childhood, which actually inspired the Black Smoke Rising song, and the entire theme for their first EP. The drummer is the only non-family member of the rest of the band, but he is lifelong best friends with the bassist and was always there during jam sessions. Their family and especially their Dad are all huge lovers of music and it's stuck with them, and it shows.DancesWithWerewolves wrote:What's with the rumor that they're a corporate band? Like put together the way a company hand picks to make a boy band? Has anybody else heard that one? I see it all the time brought up in the messages every time Guitar World and the like posts about them. Of course none of it's backed up, but I'm perplexed at how many believe it.
Dayum! Someone console Jason.showa58taro wrote:A bit like elevator music done well.
Lol. I’m sure he values my 3 artist loving taste so much. At least I downloaded and played them. Should give them some cash.Reign in Blood wrote:Dayum! Someone console Jason.showa58taro wrote:A bit like elevator music done well.
Yeah to be fair there’s only really two. I was thinking I could count Amon Amarth the Viking metal band but they are not on the same level of following as Metallica and Rammstein.Reign in Blood wrote:Who is the third?
well, they do call it a "lift". so maybe you're onto something.Jason wrote:I know Seb meant "elevating music", so I am OK with his assessment.
