Overrated

Many rock songs across multiple albums but this particular album contains my prom theme song Stairways To Heaven. Interesting how different song arrangements persist in this album and various styles. The Page and Plant show another hold on most of the music in this album.

Bom... Por onde começar? Esse álbum representa toda a essência do Led Zeppelin. Cada faixa tem uma melodia, uma concentração instrumental "aura" própria. Sobre as ,músicas:

Four Sticks: 9/10 é uma ótima canção experimental, mas ao ouvi-la mais de cinco vezes, você definitivamente vai querer termina-la de ouvir sempre que a coloca-la para ouvir.

Misty Mountain Hop : 8.3/10 no meu gosto musical essa é a faixa mais distante das demais, uma sonoridade na qual não me agrada 100%, mas reconheço que a metade da faixa é muito atrativa, para mim a mais "fraca" do álbum, mesmo sendo uma canção boa.

The Battle of Evermore: 9.5/10 é como uma viagem a uma era medieval, um conto. Eu gosto muito dessa música, sempre ico fascinado com essa faixa, é muito criativa, uma sonoridade impecável.

Rock And Roll : 10/10 Clássica, todos sabem o quão poderosa essa canção é. a energia contagiante.

black Dog: 10/10

Going To califórnia: 10/10

When Te Leavee Breaks: 10/10

Starway To Heaven: 10/10

This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.

6 of the 8 songs on this album - "Black Dog", "Rock and Roll", "Going to California", "The Battle of Evermore", "Stairway to Heaven" and "When the Levee Breaks" are rock masterpieces. Those tracks alone are enough to warrant this album an exceptional score, but "Misty Mountain Hop", a slightly satirical take on the lifestyle on early 70s hippies, is also a near-masterpiece, and one of Zeppelin's most underrated songs. "Four Sticks" is the weakest track on the album, but it is still a good song.

This album - and Led Zeppelin as a band - is often categorised as heavy metal by critics, but I would not call Led Zeppelin a heavy metal band or this album a heavy metal album, although both this album and influenced almost all metal bands that followed, even to this day. None of the songs on this album come close to metal, especially if you compare it to an album like Master of Reality, a4 contemporary release by Black Sabbath. The fourth Led Zeppelin album is very much a hard rock album, with elements of blues rock, folk rock and even progressive rock, all of which are exemplified on "Stairway to Heaven".

An absolute classic of the rock genre that commands your attention right from the start with the energetic Black Dog that is one of the greatest opening songs of all time. We continue with this energy into Rock And Roll which is a very infectious listen and is enjoyable no matter how many times you revisit this album. We then get a short dip in quality with track 3 but then the album explodes with brilliance on what is one of the greatest songs ever made which is Stairway To Heaven. This song demonstrates how amazing every member of the band is and perfectly encapsulates the group for me. On side 2 we get a slow start with Misty Mountain Hop and then the weakest track on the record which is Four Sticks. This track for some reason never grabs my attention and I find it to be quite repetitive. Next we have the beautiful Going To California which demonstrates the groups softer side before once again exploding with the absolute masterpiece that is When The Levee Breaks. This concludes the record perfectly as everyone leaves satisfied with their experience due to it. Overall, there are some massive moments on here which are some of the most important in music history but a few slower tracks hold this album back slightly in my opinion.

Zeppelin’s Magnum Opus. Iconic cover and iconic songs all around.

Led Zep's greatest album

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Over the space of no time at all Led Zeppelin quickly became the leading name in rock and the first two albums so exactly that; rock. This album however shows so many differing sides to the bands many talents and also highlights the different shades of colour the band could reveal. Their magnum opus still rocks hard but it is the moments of intense, raw beauty that makes it one of the greatest albums of all time.
