Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted June 28, 2003 The combatants: Led God Damn Zeppelin, who beat AC/DC by a cunthair, Vs. Black Fucking Sabbath, who romped on Metallica's sorry asses in grand fashion. Let's get it on. If you don't believe me, go count 'em yerself. I counted, but only bothered remember who won. What do I look like, a fucking abacus? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ZGangsta Report post Posted June 29, 2003 Funny how so many people here will rip Metallica apart for "sucking since the Black Album" and ignoring their past prominence. Yet when it comes to Sabbath, the group's work post-Ozzy is completely ignored. Dio anyone? Or how about we go listen to the Ian Gillian fronted Born Again. And what about the period in the 80s with the revolving door of musicians while the band (still called Black Sabbath mind you) was putting out bland, unoriginal music. I love the original line up as well, but post-Ozzy they sucked it big time. Hell, the song and video for Zero the Hero alone should kill the band’s overall reputation. You can’t just choose to ignore a large period of a certain band’s history while ripping apart other bands for losing it after a certain time. Zeppelin on the other hand, well I can listen to every song from Good Times Bad Times right through I’m Gonna Crawl and love it. Gotta go with Led Zeppelin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest spiny norman Report post Posted June 29, 2003 I don't understand the Sabbath love. And why it's apparentally such a hands-down decision for them to be the winners. Led Zeppelin. Hands-down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted June 29, 2003 Because from 1971-1979 they put out great heavy album after great heavy album, all of which were interesting and good, with GREAT songs, composition, delivery, and sound. They're the best example I can think of, of a band that is just so much more than a sum of their parts. Was the post Ozzy stuff as good? Absolutely not. In fact, some of it, like TYR, is absolutely wretched, but at that point, it was hardly even the same band. Even still, the post Ozzy material, no matter how much it paled in comparison, was still influential, particularly to fledgling power metal. They worked the blues into their early material every bit as well as Zeppelin, with tracks like "The Wizard" and "A Bit of Finger/Warning/Sleeping Villiage." Of course, some of you are pretending like Zeppelin didn't put out any iffy material. In through the Out Door, anyone? Or how about Presence? I think both sides of the argument are guilty of ignoring the bands' sub-par material. Either way you look at it, when bands are together that long, and put out so much stuff, it stands to reason that some of it might not be as good as their top-notch recordings. Also, all the live Sabbath I've heard, as well as seeing them live, totally buries the Zeppelin live material. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
