  1. 1. Which song (or maybe band) do you like more?

    • Greta Van Fleet - When The Curtain Falls

Two newer bands, two signature obsessions.

The legal heirs of Rush vs. the legal heirs of Zep (Made in the US of A). :smoke:

Now let the curtain fall...

I wouldn't say YYNot are copycats, they have that strong influence which is sensible as they gained followers as a covers band, but the album has a lot of their own style and sound.

 

But I wouldn't call Greta copycats either. I cannot think of a single Led Zeppelin album that this new album sounds like.

That Greta snare would sound great channeled through two paper cups and string!

 

Prefer Greta.... and why not?

 

The Yynot sound is too clinical or something for me

I've tried very hard to get into the Greta album, but as soon as the guy starts to sing it's over for me. Absolutely not my cup of tea. The YYNot album isn't a sonic revelation, but I instantly liked some of their songs.

Since I got both albums last weekend they are still very new to me, but I think that my opinion would not change anytime soon.

It's funny hearing Rush fans complain about Greta's singer. It's no worse than early Ged. They are Zep clones but still fun. Better than a lot of what's out there on the radio these days.

 

Geddy always had an original voice though. The main complaint about the guy from Gretta is that he's a complete Robert Plant copycat.

adding to the zep clone factor, the singer even looks like frodo baggins!

He's trying to grow a Plant thatch. I'm afraid that we'll see his navel soon. :hail:

No.

 

First of all, you must be gifted to be able to hit those notes AT ALL.

 

Secondly, he also sounds at times like John Anderson and Geddy Lee.

 

He is a great new talent.
