inspired by the "punks who liked the beatles" thread:

name all of the punks (and post-punks) who liked led zeppelin ... other than the cult or the mission of course!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Thursday, 9 February 2006 06:59 (nineteen years ago)

I'd bet money that the guys from Fugazi like them some zep.

― Abbadavid Berman (Hurting), Thursday, 9 February 2006 07:01 (nineteen years ago)

You don't need to bet money, they said so themselves.

Isn't "punks who liked Zepplin [and Sabbath]" the established explanation for grunge?

― js (honestengine), Thursday, 9 February 2006 07:14 (nineteen years ago)

Isn't "punks who liked Zepplin [and Sabbath]" the established explanation for grunge?

yeah, true dat -- but i was thinking more the old crusty punk and post-punk dudes than the flannel crew.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Thursday, 9 February 2006 07:16 (nineteen years ago)

I'm guessing it was in the mid-'80s that PIL did "Kashmir" live, albeit as an instrumental, as was mentioned on another thread. Robert Plant mentioned John Lydon ringing him up asking for the lyrics.

tank?

I guess most of the punk bands liked Led Zep, but started up as a response to not being able to see them unless herded into an enormous field etc..

I was too young, but even subsequently never liked them. But was I a punk? guess not.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:01 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, i remember reading an ian mackaye concert where he talks about seeing zeppelin as a kid and being disgusted by the crowd being too wasted to appreciate or even remember the show, and how that contributed to him choosing the whople straight-edge thing. it actually seems like a decent point to make, though i doubt john bonham remembered many zeppelin shows for very long either.

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

also the dickies covered "communication breakdown"

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

"rage against the machine" covered something from "american grafiti".

"flipper" had an album called "american grafishy".

a.c. newman (dork-punk) said that the next "new pornographers" album will be less rock,but when it does rock, it will be in a led zep kinda way.

― dudedude, Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:40 (nineteen years ago)

basically, who doesn't like led zeppelin?

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:45 (nineteen years ago)

losers?

― ZR (teenagequiet), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:45 (nineteen years ago)

its safe to say that from all those legendery 60'-70's rock bands (doors,beatles etc..)
led zep and the stones are the only ones who didnt age and still influencial.

― observerrr, Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

Nobody "cool" liked Zep from about 1982 to I dunno know when. 1990 or something?

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:52 (nineteen years ago)

"cool" how? tons of "cool" american punk/grunge/rock bands certainly did.

― ZR (teenagequiet), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:56 (nineteen years ago)

"its safe to say that from all those legendery 60'-70's rock bands (doors,beatles etc..)

I think American is the key word there.

― Deluxe (Damian), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:00 (nineteen years ago)

What, as in "American Grafitti" ?

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

""rage against the machine" covered something from "american grafiti"."

correction: replace "american" with "physical".

― dudedude, Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:04 (nineteen years ago)

also schooly d and the beastie boys were looping led led zep as early as, what?, 1986... and they were, at that point (to me as a teenager) about as cool as you could get...

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:05 (nineteen years ago)

Today, they may say they liked Zep back then, but they are lying. It was akin to admitting you liked Skynyrd, and you couldn't say that "ironically," because irony hadn't been invented yet.

The rise of classic rock radio ruined Zep's cool factor for a decade.

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:05 (nineteen years ago)

you're way off. how old are you?

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:06 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I would move my date of their return to the cool bin back to about '86, now that you mentioned the Beasties. Those guys started Zep on their long road to redemption.

And I'm old enough to have experienced all this first-hand

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:07 (nineteen years ago)

Regarding "American" as the key word, I mean the fact that American punks/grungers/whatever were more likely to own up to liking Led Zeppelin. I can't think of any British punk or post-punk bands who ever acknowledged them as an influence. I know the Gang Of Four liked Free, I know Wire liked the Groundhogs, but I can't recall or think of any of their ilk owning up to Led Zep fandom.

― Deluxe (Damian), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:08 (nineteen years ago)

Think about it: in '85, you were hearing "Stairway to Heaven" on the hour every hour on every crappy classic rock station from coast to coast.

Zep was blasting from every El Camino, Firebird, and Camaro in the land. Behind the wheel was some drunk who was about to either kill you in his car or get out and beat you up or puke on you. This was your big brother or your dad.

The other younger bands that were rising out of Zep's primordial blooze -- the LA Sunset Strip scene, Ratt, Crue, hair metal.

None of this was "cool." If you hung with the smart set back then, you had to hide your Zep love away.

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:15 (nineteen years ago)

smart set != cool

― ZR (teenagequiet), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:20 (nineteen years ago)

Paul Simonon said, 'round the time of the Clash's rise : "I don't need to listen to LZ's music. Looking at their album covers is enuff to make me throw up." —from hammer of the gods.

Clearly, LZ represented the aristocracy of UK music— alongside ELP, the Bee Gees, Yes, Elton John, Queen and every other rilly big band— to which punks were ideologically opposed.

― veronica moser (veronica moser), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

the clash also != cool

― ZR (teenagequiet), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

I don't know about punks liking Led Zeppelin, but I do distinctly remember being at Paddington station late one night with a couple of other punks, waiting to catch a train home after being to some gig (I forget which one), when hordes of Zep fans on their way home from Knebworth suddenly emerged onto the platform from the underground.

Judging from the way that they then proceeded to chase us all 'round the area hurling insults, death threats, bottles, bricks and anything else that came to hand however, I somehow don't think they exactly saw us as fellow travellers....

"Nobody "cool" liked Zep from about 1982 to I dunno know when. 1990 or something?"

Nobody I knew or considered cool would have admitted to liking Led Zeppelin from about 1976 to about 1982.

Iirc it was Killing Joke who were largely responsible for rehabilitating Zep for post-punk audiences; indeed, unlikely 'though it may seem, Jaz later (iirc) arranged and wrote the score for the London Symphony Orchestra's performance of "Kashmir: Symphonic Led Zeppelin"; and he and Youth produced the album and wrote the sleevenotes.

And the Americans who were into the Jam, the Clash, the Specials, and Elvis C all followed that Zep-hating party line.

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:30 (nineteen years ago)

you're not exactly disproving my point here

― ZR (teenagequiet), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

that a bunch of new wave-loving anglophiles fell in line with anything has no bearing on what was cool. in the early to mid 80's the replacements were covering led zep all the time. black flag were in full long-haired guitar-wank solo mode. saint vitus were the coolest band on sst. redd kross were doing california metal-psychedelic-punk on teen babes & neurotica. dc hardcore was all about speed and power and macho bullshit, all of which made led zep appealing. everybody listened to ac/dc, led zep, early aerosmith and black sabbath all the time. where do you think nirvana and soundgarden came from a couple of years later?

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

".... It was akin to admitting you liked Skynyrd, and you couldn't say that "ironically," because irony hadn't been invented yet."

OTM

"the clash also != cool"

Maybe not, but between 1977 and 1982 they were certainly a far better facsimile of cool than Led Zeppelin.

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:35 (nineteen years ago)

Clash fans in the US were a bunch of mooks.

This Heat, y'all.

― senseiDancer (sexyDancer), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

Well, everyone seemed to be into Zeppelin, then when punk happened, there were a lot that denied that they ever were.

I can honestly say I own no zeppelin records, and still don't care for them. (I borrowed the recent live compilation thingy, but never got round to actually playing it).

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

That also went for Yes, ELP and all the rest. I confess to a couple of Rick Wakeman albums (won in a competition) but that's as.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:38 (nineteen years ago)

I totally agree with you Stewart - but I think it's pretty safe to say that Zep-dislike was way more pronounced amongst the UK punk set than the US.

― ZR (teenagequiet), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:40 (nineteen years ago)

"that a bunch of new wave-loving anglophiles fell in line with anything has no bearing on what was cool."

Which of two British bands any given bunch of Septics considered to be more "cool" at any given point, is actually of quite breathtaking lack of interest or relevance to me.

"Well, everyone seemed to be into Zeppelin, then when punk happened, there were a lot that denied that they ever were..... That also went for Yes, ELP and all the rest."

"I confess to a couple of Rick Wakeman albums (won in a competition)"

I confess to Yessongs and [shuffles feet nervously] Frampton Comes Alive [hangs head in shame].

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:42 (nineteen years ago)

Ach, we *all* sang along to the Frampt, in music class. Mainly cause it was the CHEAPEST double album ever.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:49 (nineteen years ago)

"I think it's pretty safe to say that Zep-dislike was way more pronounced amongst the UK punk set than the US."

At the risk of going off at a complete tangent, what did the average US punker think of Boston / Cheap Trick / Foreigner / Grand Funk Railroad / Heart / Journey / Kansas / Kiss / Montrose / Ted Nugent / REO Speedwagon / Styx in 1977?

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:51 (nineteen years ago)

"Ach, we *all* sang along to the Frampt, in music class."

Did you all try to sing "Do You Feel Like We Do?" as if you were using a talkbox too?

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:53 (nineteen years ago)

We all went "Pommm" i.e. the bassline. Man, being the voice box along to that track would have been a bit, um, strange...

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:55 (nineteen years ago)

I am a bit strange, it's official.

Well, at least, I was in 1976.

Actually no, I was probably right the first time.

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 9 February 2006 15:59 (nineteen years ago)

xpost - it's also a question of bands as opposed to fans/followers...a LOT of the US bands were pretty vocal about their love for several of those groups (DC folks were particularly into Nugent). It seems like love of classic rock was more pronounced in the postpunk/hardcore that came after the first wave punk, though.

i think we may be agreeing with each other here. at any rate, i feel the same as you.

though i'm not sure what Septics are.

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Thursday, 9 February 2006 16:03 (nineteen years ago)

"where do you think nirvana and soundgarden came from a couple of years later?"

Which has the more obvious debt to Zeppelin? Those bands or Ratt and Motley Crue?

(septics= Yanks)

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 16:07 (nineteen years ago)

"At the risk of going off at a complete tangent, what did the average US punker think..."

Quite a few bands were quite vocal in their love of Cheap Trick and Kiss (not always the same bands, though). Not so much the other bands you mention, though I suspect there may have been a few punks into Grand Funk.

I'm not saying that people weren't into Zep. I am saying that it was uncool, that you had to hide it.

Zep had some seriously cheesy moments and their more obvious, crass followers were often morons.

Zep was one of the band's that went into Spinal Tap's blender, and for a period of years after that movie, you couldn't take any band with as many druidical overtones as Zep seriously at all, no matter how powerful their music. The stuff was considered a laughingstock and an embarassment.

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 19:19 (nineteen years ago)

"What bands are uncool...right now?"

Creed. Staind. Nickelback. Hoobastank.

I don't think there will ever be a revival for them.

― novamax (novamax), Thursday, 9 February 2006 19:20 (nineteen years ago)

Probably Lenny Kaye. Peter Laughner, probably.

>all i want is to be first in a revival.

Psst...the Plugz' Electrify Me is the greatest L.A. punk album.

There's a story in Rollins' Hallucinations Of Grandeur tour diary (don't know if it made it into Get In The Van) about sleeping in some Italian squat on a Euro BF tour, playing ZZ Top's Tres Hombres on the communal jambox and telling all the punks that it was the new Anti-Nowhere League album, bumming them out something fierce.

― pdf (Phil Freeman), Thursday, 9 February 2006 19:41 (nineteen years ago)

the sex pistols (who slowed down the "communication breakdown" riff for "god save the queen")

if there's one hard rock band "hipsters" all love it's fuckin Guns N'Roses.

they were one of the first bands i ever loved. although maybe i was a hipster when i was 11, who knows.

"Used to Love Her" has a groovey beat

I'm far too old to give a toss about what's "hip", however: whilst I don't particularly like Led Zep myself I think I can understand why other people would; Guns 'N' Roses otoh have always struck me as being pretty much devoid of any redeeming features at all.

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 10 February 2006 10:54 (nineteen years ago)

Well, I can see why people'd like Hendrix, but Zep and Guns go into the latter category.

Apart from Alice who loves "Sweet child of mine", so I'll give them points for that one.

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 10 February 2006 11:09 (nineteen years ago)

'Er indoors quite likes 'em too, bloody little 'eadbanger that she is - completely baffles me.

Axl Rose was bloody good at that Freddie Mercury tribute gig a few years back 'though wasn't he?

He certainly made a better replacement for Freddie Mercury than Paul Rdgers does anyway.

"has there ever been a TS: usa vs. uk?"

At a rough estimate I'd say about half the threads that deal broadly in punk / post punk etc. have contained elements of TS: usa vs. uk.

"how many punk/hardcore dudes were in metal bands by like '89, '90?!?!?"

I'm sure we've covered this before but off the top of my head (and once again from an entirely anglocentric standpoint):

Algy Ward: The Saints The Damned > Tank
Paul Gray: Eddie & The Hot Rods > The Damned > UFO (what is it about The Damned that...? no, on second thoughts, don;t answer that 'cos I don't think I want to hear it!)
Fred Purser: Penetration > Tygers Of Pan Tang
Slaughter & The Dogs > Studio Sweethears > Slaughter (not, not that Slaughter, the British ones who had previously been Slaughter & the Dogs and were shite)
Discharge: a great band > a crap one
Southern Death Cult > Death Cult > The Cult (see "Discharge")

Here is how it worked in 1982 in Baltimore. If you could find a punk chick, she'd be the last type of female you would want to have sex with. So that left, in order of coolness, new wave chicks, rawk chicks ie zepplin chicks, hippie chicks ie hairy deadheads, and finally preppy chicks who listened to utter shit like the soundtrack to grease. I like LZ because I associate them with the first good blowjob I ever got, back in the 9th grade during a midnight showing of "The song Remains the Same." She gave no quarter.

I have never been fascinated by punk, really. I find the music being a total waste of time, and kind of inmature. Led Zeppelin is one of my favorite bands, and I think it totally and absolutely ROCKKKSSSSSSS your shithole off!
Anyone who prefers some ¨idontgiveafuck,idontcare,youcanalljustgofuckyourselves¨ punk to led zeppelin or any other type of rock that remotely resembles it, well, SUCKS. So yup.
