Drewg Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 For fans of Led Zeppelin, like me, check out this new band from Michigan. Close your eyes, and you hear Robert Plant. The band is called Greta Van Fleet, and they are really good! Check it out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teaman Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Yep, three brothers and a friend in the band. I got the cd as soon as it came out, very nicely done. Good old rock n roll with that special something that few bands have today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJkizak Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 It sounds good but I don't think the drums are quite there yet. JJK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Wow, they are good. Definitely "Plant-like" as well as "Zeppelin-ish". Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Considering how to refuel my collection of aging cassettes and some lps with so much wear that I refuse to put them on my new cartridge. This is next! Nice find, radio is so lame now-a-days can't hear new good music there, this forum is great for musical knowledge! ... sounds a lot like new Zep! Backordered on amazon until 11/20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 They're pretty good, but I wouldn't call them the next coming of Zeppelin. If you go listen to Led Zeppelin l, you would hear a huge difference, Page's guitar work was spectacular, and Bonham on the drums was much more defined and hard hitting. I saw a video of them, that sound sounded more like Rush. A good band, and I hope they do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewg Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 Considering 2 of the guys are only 21 and the other 2 are 18, I think they have a very bright future. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 After listening to a little more available at youtube they could be millionaires in a few more years if the word gets out. If radio could/would support non-pop tunes again. Hope they do keep on getting to it. @Ceptorman you're talkin' RUSH with the phenomenal Neil Pert on percussion! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes sir, and maybe the best bass player alive, and an exceptional guitarist....one helluva band. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yes they have a brilliant future, hope they do well. They are getting pretty popular.

JohnJ Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Saw part of a taped concert in Cali just last month. That kid singing wore low rise jeans, open shirt, big belt buckle like the iconic pictures of Plant back in the day. He moves, spins and makes hand gestures that are Plant-like. Can't say if the resemblance is premeditated or not, that doesn't concern me. I do think it's obvious they have heard/seen Led Zeppelin performances before. Previous statements are not a condemnation. More power to them! The amazon ship date is unknown now so I found their site, sent them $11.00 and maybe next week my neighbor will be asking me if Zep put out a new record? My brother that used to mimic with "That kind of music that disturbs the soul" got him to google them and he thinks they could play any college town and be a hit with their sound and their look.

oldtimer Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Either. But this is just one musician's opinion, for whatever it is worth. It can be difficult to put the greats into any one particular order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max2 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Eerily similar. I'm mean the singers style and voice, the guitar riffs and tone and the beats are all seemingly modeled form Zepp. Don't mean to sound negative, but skipping through this album just sounds like they got their feet really close to fire and seemed to have done it very well. To top it off, we need Druids on the album cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
