On one side we have those saying they’re too similar to Led Zeppelin’s sound, that they’re boring, blatant rip-offs and have yet to bring anything new to the table. On the other side we have those who are happy to have a band reviving the hard rock sound of the 70s, bringing it to a new generation of listeners and into a market that’s oversaturated with R&B and hip hop.
Regardless of which side you sit on, Greta Van Fleet’s singles are quickly gaining them fans, see them climbing rock charts and have them selling out shows -- all of this and the band have yet to release a full debut record.
This video essay explores Greta Van Fleet’s recent rise in popularity, the band members, their EP Black Smoke Rising and their double EP From the Fires. I also reflect on bands of the past that have been tapped for sounding too much like Led Zeppelin, including: Rush, Billy Squier, Kingdom Come, Wolfmother and Rival Sons. But even Led Zeppelin have been known to steal lyrics and riffs from artists without crediting them.

"The next Led Zeppelin" won't sound anything like Led Zeppelin.
exactly!! thank you
that´s the key!
except led zeppelin were rip off artists???
this is brilliant
Elijah Wilkes I don’t think that’s accurate. Sure, they covered some old blues songs and drew influences from lots of places but zeppelin did make it original and, later, wrote some very original music. So far, all I’ve seen these kids do is shamelessly rip them off. Look at how they dress. Look at the frontman’s moves... they sound okay, and I’m sure that they have a great future. They just need a few years and some life experiences to bring out some cool material.
"Does GRETA VAN FLEET Sound Too Much like LED ZEPPELIN?"
I wish a had a band that had the same "problem"
Exactly, Robert Plant has taken it as the sincerest form of flattery, making fun of their claimed inspiration by Aerosmith
GVF sounds nothing like :Led Zeppelin.
@@guitarplayer2846 They do though. Not enough to be a rip off or anything but they definitely take a lot of inspiration from Zeppelin. They need more experience to get to Zeppelins level of quality especially if you take Zeppelins career as a whole rather then just their first album, but they do sound very similar.
@@guitarplayer2846 hey when I said that everybody threw insults at me I am glad to see someone else shares that opinion although look at everybody putting out ZEPPELIN covers right now just goes to show I was right LED FUCKIN ZEPPELIN equals cash
I wouldn’t want that. That just means they are copying them
Gee what a problem to have! These kids are true musicians. Not boring. That kid's voice is unreal and I got goosebumps listening to Heat Above. The guitar is awesome. Just wow.
As someone who likes many genres of music but grew up on rock, I'm excited. I hope they inspire other young rockers to push more (good) rock music.
I swear to god I felt like I was reading what I would have typed before I typed it. Right down to the grew up to rock.
It says something about a band when the primary "insult" from haters is that they sound too much like one of the greatest bands ever.
right?!
..40 years later. It is an insult. It means you are an amazing band for weddings, but I do not know why I should listen to a mild copy of the original.
Nah, its an insult.
They are a complete TRIBUTE band, and should just finally go with it. 😂
There’s sounding “like” someone.
And there’s trying to “be” someone.
They fall to the second category. Anyone disagreeing is, well, factually wrong or has never heard led zeppelin
@@alexalexalex797 so do you mean like how Led Zeppelin is a tribute band for muddy Waters?
@@Oly1y no, not at all. Are you even being serious right now? 😂
Led Zeppelin didn’t dress up like muddy waters. And nobody heard 90% of zeppelin songs and say “hmmm hey, is this muddy waters?”
Tribute is one thing, complete copy of EVERYTHING is a another 🤷♂️
If I could sound like Robert Plant you better believe I’d be singing
Spot on.
If someone can sing like Robert plant... get them into a good rock band now.
What would you be singing?
The wheels on the bus go round and round?
Edward Sanchez what a terrible joke
@@erronblack308 yo momma is terrible
So any new kids should just pick an old popular band and reproduce their sound, become famous?
I genuinely thought gretta can fleet was a 70s band till now
Dude same
gretta can fleet
Torren Shea Sanchez same
I think greta definetely ‘can’ fleet ahahah
Same here. Kept hearing it mixed in my classic rock playlist on Spotify
Well I love them.. and I appreciate that I can enjoy classic rock with a more modern sound and honestly with Heat Above I think they’re starting to come into their own. They’re so talented!
When i first heard Highway Tune i was with my daughter and we both looked at each other like is this Led Zeppelin? And when we found out who they were we became fans and we even hit one of their concerts! I enjoy listening to them!
me and father also share love for the same music (70s/80s hard rock) and go to the same concerts. we just went to an acdc coverband this weekend. sharing the same taste in music(and such a cool taste as well ) with a parent is really priceless.
rock it!
"Ditched their prom dates to set out on a North American tour"
European venues scroll by on screen...
they end up always adding on new locations due to high demand
Those would make 10/10 lyrics.
I quit the phone company as an operator so I could see the Stones first tour!! What we do for love!!!
"There are worse things you can sound like than Led Zeppelin" well that sums it up pretty nicely
They're always talking about KISS when they say that.
If i started a band that was just a "Greta Van Fleet" ripoff, that band would still be a Led Zeppelin rippoff. That's how you can tell. They've brought nothing of their own. And if you're going to steal, steal from two things and put them together- that's called art. This is just theft.
Yeah man, to all the haters. You're just jealous that a bunch of kids have got the balls to do it right! And you don't! End of story. GVF will rule the world if they just keep going the way they are. It's called a music journey and you get on it, or get off. I mean the guy wears SANDALS on stage!
Billy Cobb Yeah, like Garth Brooks etc. Btw, in N.O., there was a band named Zebra (3 members & yes they played Rush!) whom was really great covering Zeppelin. Unfortunately, the ‘80’s were filled with hair metal and they were kind of dated. They have videos on UA-cam of original songs that were on MTV.
Ginny What He doesn’t have Plant’s thang. God he was hot and I don’t even care for Zeppelin (except Physical Graffiti & 3 songs from III). The guys in GVF are boys, not men. They’ll never have the charisma of Zeppelin plus, given the fact that although Zeppelin copied (and, in some cases stole), they did change a lot in ‘70’s rock. The people responded to them even though critics didn’t. They had “IT”. GVF doesn’t. They are also lacking the type of audience that loved Zeppelin. Hell, I’d love to have seen them myself (I loved tripping whilst watching “The Song Remains The Same” but, I can’t imagine kids today who are crazy over Beiber, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, KK... have the same love of blues & hard rock like those from the late ‘60’s - ‘70’s, Zeppelin’s heyday. The video I saw of GVF live had the audience sitting in their seats, 1 or 2 tapping their feet. Why weren’t they dancing & having fun?
I just saw them 2 nights ago. I'm 59 years old and have seen The Rolling Stones, The Who, Ozzie, Pink Floyd, The Clash, Kiss, and many others live. Greta Van Fleet sounded better live and put on a better show than any live act I have seen.
Young pup
Go see the Oh Sees and shut your old yapper
@A there's yet to be a good tune to come out of slipknot's catalogue.
NO thanks.
op reads like someone who got mollied smh
I can respect your opinion, but mine definitely differs. Nobody can put on a show like Floyd....and maaaaybe Slayer.
Unless you're at a Grateful Dead show that is.....
Again, just my opinion....but to put them above Pink Floyd is blasphemous.... especially since they're new, meaning they do not have a fraction of the money it takes to get the gear it would take to even be on Floyd's radar as far as sound quality goes, and they haven't even touched the surface of the talent found in every Pink Floyd album ever released.. No way they sounded better dude.
It had to have been the acid making you think that 😉
Or the fact that Redrock has technology built into it's amphitheater to prioritize sound quality that didn't exist when you saw Floyd last...and that's not meant to be an insult, I'm only a couple years under you. It's just an unfortunate fact, technology is moving at supersonic speed for the past decade or so, a lot of it falls right into the quality of music...filters, editing programs like Ableton, all the equipment really has evolved what seems like a century in well under a decade.
Saw these kids in Eugene, Oregon! They kicked ass! Good for them. Zeppelin was accused of being a rip off, bla, bla, bla. They are young, look forward to what they come up with.
For a band to be called "influential," we have to be OK with other bands being influenced by them. Copying your heroes is an essential part of developing your own style on any instrument, in any genre of music. According to jazz trumpeter Clark Terry, the process goes like this: "Imitate. Assimilate. Innovate."
If these young guys want to play tunes with cool riffs and hot licks, then we should welcome what they have to offer . . . it's not like there's too much of that stuff in the world these days.
👆🏻this is real. I say something similar when ppl say “you can’t buy what your heroes buy and play their music and call that being a musician” I usually retort with “nah but those guys gave me the will to learn this instrument so they are my ground zero building blocks, I start with them and then intend to shape into my own”
@@brianpike4677 Exactly! And when we do that, we're doing the same thing our heroes did when they learned from the people they admired.
There are tons of bands playing psych-blues rock. Most of them are far better than gvf. Greta plays music for Zeppelin fans who don't listen to music. The band might have the ingredients but the execution is subpar.
MarrowEternal I don’t doubt there are better bands. They are young and in a great place. As for music for Zep fans that don’t listen to music, well that’s an opinion. I am a fan and I listen to music constantly. They are music for fans that wish that was a living thriving genre. You hear the new Zep album? Na cuz there isn’t one.
@@brianpike4677 The point is there is new psych-rock music being made. I guess Greta is for Zepp fans who don't know that. Graveyard, the Sword, King Gizzard just to name a few
I don't care that they sound similar to Led Zeppelin, what bugs me is that they keep saying their biggest influence is Aerosmith. Just own that you sound like Led Zeppelin and move on.
sounding like someone and being influenced the most by that same person isn't the same thing.
I agree, like Motley Crue playing down the Kiss influence.
It infuriates me how arrogant they are. Clear Robert plant rip off
It’s an on going joke to mock the whole “new led zeppelin” thing. Im guessing yall just dont get it😂
my thoughts exactly!!! the fact that they're trying to fight the reason why everyone even knows who they are is ridiculous
Greta Van Fleet it's absolutely amazing... I am 66 years old I've seen every band in rock and roll
And in heavy metal music.
This band as long as they always have the right people around them the right label the right managers and the right Roadies will last forty to fifty years from now...
Being compared to Zeppelin Rush The who and Bon Scott is the biggest compliment ever for such a Young band so thank you young men rock is not dead, YOU YOUNG MEN HAVE BROUGHT ROCK AND ROLL BACK TO LIFE AND I THANK YOU.
YOUR MUSIC, STYLE AND SOUND COMES ONCE IN A LIFETIME. PLEASE PLEASE STICK AROUND THAT'S WHAT US (a lil bit of old timers) WANT AND NEED.
ROCK AND ROLL
NEEDS YOU, YOU HAVE BREATHED LIFE BACK INTO ROCK AND ROLL AND I THANK YOU..
AGAIN I'M 66 YEARS OLD AND I AM AN ABSOLUTE FAN..... KEEP IT UP, DON'T LET THE ILLUSION OF FAME TAKE OVER, DON'T BURN OUT ON DRUGS OR BOOZE... YOU WILL DEFINITELY GO VERY VERY VERY FAR IN YOUR MUSICAL CAREER...
xoxo
A new fan.... 🤘
love it, Led ripped similarly blues melodies and riffs. Plenty of documentation... GVF has brilliantly revitalized a lingering energy that we still thirst for.
Too many people are "hungering" for that energetic classic rock sound that's woefully missing from today's music - GVF has a good shot to put rock back in contention !
@@raymondspada4684 tbh, i feel like we don’t need rock to step into the spotlight again. It had the spotlight for half a century
Every band can cover a song or take riffs but GVF belches out how Led Zeppelin would. The front man even wears an outfit like Robert Plant. The drummers has had solo drumming like Bonham. Hnmmm at bit too much. Talented yes, great sound yes, original NO!
"For now, enjoy the music. There are worse things you could sound like, than Led Zeppelin."
Nice.
The first time I heard them I actually thought they were a Led Zeppelin cover band.
Next song release;
Escalator Haven
T P T I’m pretty sure they’ve covered a lot of Zeppelin on YT
They are
tribute band XD
i thought they were zep songs i never heard...the lost tracks
Love Greta Van Fleet...love the old school Rock and there classic sound.. its different and not like all the rap stuff we hear now.. love it and can't wait to see what they produce as they are more seasoned ❤❤
The thumbnail title on this video didn’t age well 5 yrs later
Dude literally stands like Robert Plant on
stage...
Mykel Mellen “stands exactly” not “literally stands”
Exactly
Literally stands like robert plant ..? guess what LITERALLY I piss exactly like Robert plant . what a Vacuus piece of pablum LITERALLY
Mykel Mellen what is the problem with that? If you don’t like it then don’t listen to them. Idk why people like have to hair on something that so many people are so excited about. All you have to do is just not listen to them
But it is literally just standing. Like Robert has no extraordinary stage presence
As someone said previously, give them time to grow. Many classic rock bands started out just going with the sound that influenced them until they found their own sound. I think it's a natural progression in rock. Let's see what happens.
I dont know if you have listend to there New single. But i think they have found there New OWN sound.
Pretty sure Paul Stanley said that in his audiobook
No kidding people are actually putting this band down cuz they sound like Zeppelin wow I have not heard anything from Led zeppelin nobody will ever take Led Zeppelin top spot but I'm glad someone wants to sound like this great music
Exactly, just look at the progression of Phil Collins vocals from when Peter Gabriel first left genesis to the later years of Phil Collins solo career
Damn !!!!! This kid can sing. This was 5 years ago??? Were have I been? This kids are good. So I guess they have to be in their 20's now. Who cares if they sound like Zep, look at all the artists that tried to sound like Hendrix and were very successful at it. Almost everybody has their influences. Not everybody can be as original as Eddie Van Halen.
I had exactly the same feeling!!!!
nma eONE artist who sounded like hendrix?
@@markfrost2707 Stevie Ray Vaughn, Robin Trower, Eric Johnson. I didn't mean vocally, I meant influenced by his guitar playing.
I am 63, this is great stuff keep it going ,these guys are great!
Greta Van Fleet: 3 brothers and some dude who plays drums
Benji Lupus the drummer is a very close school friend
@Willz __ Uhhhh what.....
Danny Wagner {Drummer} very looks like Joe Perry when you look from far away (i thinks)
@@mmazaodesu Yeah he's got a similar face shape lol
@@kptlt.phillipthomsen5973 Lmfao
Rober Plant gave his approval thats all i need to hear. as long as they aren’t straight up stealing and hurting the originals i dont mind similar sounds. I will still listen to Led And greta too.
they directly copy the riffs, chord progression, and stage presence
you cant be a serious Zep fan and like these guys too
@@rclc161 How? They literally sound like Zeppelin, if anything, you're bound to be a fan of Fleet if you're already a fan of Zepp. Even Robert Plant approved of these guys in an interview before.
@@WrangleMcDangle Good thing Zeppelin never stole anything.
@@treytrapani9813 so you agree its stolen ty
seriously people. Just enjoy the music or dont. As an artist i get heavily influenced by other artists and sometimes i see people take my ideas and run with them. It's a compliment.
Oh shit!... I can't believe Frankenmuth! Lived in MI, so been there. It's kind of a tourist spot for Christmas decor and chicken dinner.
Im definitely one of those people who are happy to hear the classic rock coming back. I grew up on zepp and just showed my dad and hes pumped. Rock on kids! Keep that sound alive
I am one of these people that prefers rock to evolve and innovate rather than simply harking back to the early seventies. This 51 year old is very comfortable with contemporary music \m/
@@freeman10000 Thank you
They dress like LZ and play like LZ but singer is by far Rush sound
Just not copy and paste
me too!!
From an old guy who loves the Lep, these guys are fantastic, I love their special sound. It is true that rock never dies, just gets re-born a new.
🤣😂🤣😂he said SPECIAL SOUND. it's not special when you copy it from one of the greatest bands ever. Get the fuck out of here.
Reborn? You mean beating a dead horse.
I loved Zep, want to love Greta, but to be honest, they bore the shit out of me, their songs don't have the hooks of the Zep songs, sorry. I understand everyone is desperate for something good nowadays.
@@fearnoevil65 Yeah true, but give em a chance. They are a young band by young guys. If they can stay together, they will get better in time. The zep was no so good when they started if you saw they erley w ork
@@chipmcg7766 Still liked Zep better, but I wish Greta all the best, I am from Michigan after all.
Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, Pink, Whitney Houston, etc. are all as similar to one another as Plant is to Kiszka. We're used to hearing the differences in female pop voices because they are a dime a dozen and we have developed the ability to distinguish between them (with great fidelity) But when the "Plant" aesthetic has a visitor, we're not as used to that realm of vocals, e.g. high pitched squeal with rasp and slight whine on the lower end. Kiszka has a VERY different voice with VERY different techniques. He and Plant share the same foundation, but Kiszka is closer to Freddie in terms of vocal embellishment and prolonged, open vowels (operatic vibrato, yodelling etc.).
I am 64 yo and this band is a breath of fresh air.
Everyone sounds like someone else sometimes.
Just can't find those elusive new notes.
Critic: "You sound like Robert Plant!"
Josh: "Umm... Hell yeah!"
They're talented. I hope they play at Floyd Fest again
@Atom poser shit, right down to their costumes lol
I was listening to my local hard rock station and Led Zeppelin came on. I thought it was weird because it was a zeppelin song I had never heard before. Then I found out it was Greta van Fleet.
@@mariorivera6292 looks like someones a little mad
Mario, you’re the fucking idiot, he’s being so blatantly sarcastic about the undeniable fact that GvF is a LZ ripoff that it’s not even funny.
If you listen close enough, you can differentiate their voices....
@@jebatman756 Yes, but only those of us with good years and more than two functioning brain cells are able to discern the difference. To the barely functional dipshits like Kevin and Lewis they seem identical.
tekitron I really do think it’s all about how good someone’s ears are musically...
Would love to hear what Middle 8 thinks of their newer stuff - Gardens gate and Starcatcher etc... saw them live a few months back and they are pretty incredible!!
This young singer can hold a note underwater. ⭐️😇 I have just discovered them and they are unreal. Who ever writes the songs my hat goes off to them they are brilliant. I would say they are Led Zeppelin and Yes combined. A little Aerosmith and the Who maybe. However they are sensational. Boy can that guy hold a note. ❤️🌟🇦🇺⭐️😇
Led Zeppelin are probably my favourite band of all time. And hearing Greta Van Fleet honestly puts a smile on my face. It's so nice to hear such an accurate and loving homage to Zep.
Robin Ferris I heard Safari Song on the radio and was almost certain it was a LZ song I somehow hadn't heard. I was shocked to found out it was a song released in 2017. I love their EP but I hope they can create their own sound on their album.
Zep is my fav too but this band is a disgrace.
KRUSTYskates live in your past and let us live in today and dream the future. Past is behind us
It's shitting on the legacy, not an homage. Don't kid yourself.
How exactly is it shitting on the legacy?
If you can sing like Robert plant you should be rewarded for it.
If you can Play Rock Music like the Blues Greats and Steal and Lie and Deny you will be rewarded for it .
Yeah but dressing and acting identical to him just makes it look sad and tired.
But he doesn't really. He has one range, Plant has all the range
*SCREAMS*
@Jeff Payne Bingo ! No one is close to Plant....ever. Plant, Mercury, Rodgers,Rose,Ozzy. No one like them. Shit, I'll throw Ann Wilson in there.
I wish these guys the best, everyone hating is trying to be a gatekeeper or some shit. If you are a rock fan you appreciate ROCK. No excuses
Just hearing of them today! Loving this band!
“We need more oldies bands around nowadays!”
*happens*
“God they are blatant ripoffs!”
False dichotomy. Next.
Zac Waters I doubt the people making those two statements are the same people.
It would be like taking a statement from a gun control advocate and putting them a alongside 2nd amendment absolutist, and suggesting they're made by the same person.
This is simply what ive heard from my acquaintances
Exactly... 🤔🤔🤔
nope
I grew up listening to ZEP and many artists that were before them because I'm OLD AS HELL, born 1946. I lived off and on in Hollywood for nearly 50 years and am from Laguna Beach, CA. I got to party with ZEP many times in the Continental Hyatt House on Sunset Blvd back in the early 70's. These kids really take me back to a time when I was young and happy like them, and it's so good to see kids this age playing the stuff like the real blues rock masters did back in the day. They know real music and are doing the rock world some serious justice. They'll go far, mark my words.
m. saint Real honest music will endure. This is a great example.
When I first heard them on the radio I liked the song and asked myself what LZ album is this song on 🧐 and that was even before the singing started.
There only one Led Zeppelin, they are the greatest ever, always were and always will be. However this video has brought to my attention a band that I was not aware of so I will download their music and give it a listen. If it’s any good I will then buy the vinyl or cd’s so thank you for sharing.
Rock is dying not because of lack of talent or bands copying others. It's dying because of pretentious rock fans who have this elitist attitude towards literally everything that isn't from the 70s. People like that are what's killing this genre. You don't own a style, you don't own riffs, get over yourselves.
Nah, Queens of the Stone Age are a great example of re contextualizing 70's and 80's rock music into new ideas. GVF, I won't knock 'em for having a gig, but, c'mon.
shut up kid....
You definitely do own riffs lol
this comment is what i was looking for
Wow this is on point
I can live with them sounding like Led Zep. In fact it sounds like new Zep tracks. Where they’re screwing up is trying to look like them. They need to lose the low riders and shirtless vests and develop their own style.
I think we should bring back the flair jeans and boots look. Baggie pants and skinny jeans are a little played out. Bring back rocker style.
if dude's outfit on SNL is any indication, they should go back to trying to look like 60s hippies.
There's no more Their" own style unless they wear paper mache'
Even the guitarists moves are like pages
I have been watching a few of their vids and gee whiz...some weird clothing out there.
Do they need a stylist? Long hair is nice! That''s an age thing! I grew up in the age of long haired men. I like. "There are worse things you could sound like than Led Zeppelin" Best Quote.
Love the sound rakes me back to being a kid listening to all the old school rock
Every great player/ band takes what worked from the generation of great players/ bands that came before them and then made it their own, I think Greta Van Fleet doing is what's always been done. As long as player/band acknowledges who inspired them and shakes it up a bit I hear no problem.
I don't think sticking to the sound is sustainable. Look at Wolfmother, who had a very similar kind of trajectory back in 2005. Their first album was massive, but by the time their second album dropped were practically irrelevant. I think if Greta Van Fleet want to stick around for a while, they're gonna need to carve out a more unique sound for themselves.
I dont feel wolfmother is a good example. I think it could have done well if it was executed properly. The first album was a huge hit and was written very well. Their second was overproduced and lacked any of the enitial energy or charm that the first album carried. I honestly feel it could be done well if shitty producers dont get their hands all over it.
Kingdome Come did the same.
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!
LOL forgot all about kingdome clone.
trainsRcool It's funny how they are copying the biggest copycats in history
I'm conflicted in how I feel about them.
On one hand I enjoy their 70 hard rock sound, but they do feel unoriginal and copied as well.
killercaos123 They might as well be a cover band tbh. Theyre that similar. Its okay to have influences but when your sound is exactly cut and paste of another bands (a band which weve all grown up on and heard dozens of their songs tons of times) it gets old real fast. When i first heard one of their songs, i literally rolled my eyes. These guys are the exact reason why rock music is dead in the mainstream right now. Because nobody in modern rock wants to move forward.
Jackson Winkelson Unironically, yes. But you don't have to invent an entire genre to have your own identity, but at least have idk, somewhat different instrumentation or a unique singer to spice it up a little bit. These guys are basically playing pop music coated in a Led Zeppelin skin. It's so formulaic. Even Led Zeppelin, who weren't exactly the most experimental group dabbled in different genres in Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti. (Both of which are my favorite LZ albums because those albums were the first time they really broke free of their comfort zone and actually tried to challenge themselves by being versatile.) I'm not a psychic and don't have the answers of where rock music should go. But I do know what I like. And as far as exciting rock bands in the 2000s go, there's a Japanese band called Midori that fused hardcore punk and Jazz music together and there's really nothing else like it. That band was something new and exciting to me and I'd love to see something like that. Not necessarily jazz punk, but just something new. But most modern rock music is obsessed with revivalism. Which dont get me wrong, revivalism is okay. The post-punk and garage rock revival had some good bands come out of that scene. But is this really all you want rock to be? Rehashes of the same bands over and over again? If bands want to make throwback music, I'm all for it. But GVF are the worst example of that.
Jazz Punk? What is that like? I try to listen to all genres to get well rounded but I tried to get into Punk Blues and man that shit is horrible. Alas, now that you've clarified though, I definitely agree with you. As a creator, IMO it takes more work to copy a style verbatim than to take it and make it your own. Because I theorize that the natural process in the brain is to take in the information(music in this case) and whenever you need to recall on it(like to create music) it's there, but it's filtered through your own perspective. For example: If I hear an Organ solo from the Doors when I'm 12, and I got I sit down and start playing the keyboard a year later, the Doors organ solo and a lot of other solos will float around in the subconscious as like a reference point, but the point where it becomes a conscious action is where you take that reference and repurpose it using your own skills/technic.
Jackson Winkelson Oh yeah I have no doubt that Greta Van Fleet are talented musicians. Emulating a sound is pretty hard to do. But it's just wasted potential to me. I've never went to music for technical ability. I've always gravitated more towards creativity than skill. Math rock is one of my least favorite genres but I totally respect the musicians of those bands for their talent in guitar playing. It's just not for me. And I'm not an authority in jazz punk cause to be quite honest I've heard very little of it. It's not a style of music Europe or America generally make because our rock music was derived from blues, whereas Japan's rock music was influenced a lot by jazz. The band I mentioned earlier, Midori, is definitely my favorite band to do that style, but it's definitely not for everyone. I can totally see someone calling it trash and annoying and I get it. It's kind of had the same effect on me that Death Grips had. It sounds nothing like to them, just my initial reaction to them was similar cause listening to it for the first time can be a little jarring.
Cinema Slut Again I agree. I didn't say it was harder to copy give them praise or anything, I just brought up because it's like a waste of time, or in your words "waste of talent". While it is coop to copy your musical idols, the true greatness of art production is in the creativity, again I agree, we're on the same page here tbh. What's the best track from Midori btw? I'm gonna give em a try.
The singer sounds like Plant, the drummer plays in with the guitar like Bonham did with Page, and they play blues based hard rock. So they sound Zep-like, but I think their compositions are original and fresh.
They pull at my heart strings, they bring back a sound I shared with my dad.
What I've learned: People are mad at a band for being very similar to their influences, yet the influence at question stole music from other artist. Got it.
Yet the influence at question had their own original sound and always twisted songs they ripped off. GVF isn’t original at all.
Bill Burr says it best, when Led Zeppelin isn't stealing old blues songs, they sing about hobbits and wizards.
This really brings their greatness into question, lol
@@sdaniel724 Which Zepplin tunes did they rip off exactly?
Eric Collins their sound is nearly the same as LZ. There is a difference between having an unoriginal sound and stealing songs (and twisting them)
So that just means they're even more of an LZ rip-off by even following in their footsteps of ripping others off. Nice.
They just released their new album! Here's the songs:
1)Brown dog
2)Good rhymes/bad rhymes
3)Moby Rick

I thought I heard some early Rush. Hey, I’m all for it!
The fact that so many people are “copying Led Zeppelin” just shows how amazing they were.
This comment feels like it should be under a different video topic.
ARE not WERE.
i dont think they are copying they are just singing music they wrote
artists have been influenced by other artists since the first one painted a stick figure on a cave wall.
Well it worked for LZ.
There like if Led Zeppelin couldn't grow body hair.
*they're
Haha, nice)
These guys suck

Great Video Thanks
I, a lifelong fan of LZ, am going to be a fan of GVF! They sound great!
Sounding like someone is one thing, but trying to be them is another.
are they trying?
@@lennonmccartney8399 buying the same kit as John Bonham suggest they are.
Kim Jung Hard Un well let’s be real. Bohemian ripped people off too
Exactly! These guys even dress like they're in the 70's. Yet, rarely even mention the band they are copying. Total rip-off act!
Stevie Ray Vaughan "tried" to be Jimi Hendrix and did a pretty damn good job at it but think what you want to think Mr. Elitist Music Theory God. OR you can just try to let people enjoy things for the sake of your own sanity since you can't comprehend the basic definition of influence and the fact that all music is fundamentally connected by scales and melodies that exist in every form of music. It's not that complicated, but you want it to be.
Jimmy page accusing people of plagiarism?
Lol
History is funny; enough time has passed for people to Forget Zeppelin stole most of their riffs, beats and melodies!
"Most"
I don't think that's quite true. They took a lot, though.
This is kind of the worst most cringy form of copying. In the 80s when I was a kid this shit would've been completely unacceptable. People would have literally boycotted them.
Jason Crabtree true!
Jason Crabtree I think you are easily influenced. Every band is influenced by their predecessors and LZ has their own voice. They are legends whereas you are a has been that never was.
I love them Love them!!!! A few weeks ago a so called use to be a friend had me listen to them for the very first time! I was floored!!! I still am!!
Very cool. The album collection has Jeff Wayne's musical version of The War of the Worlds. LOL I like these guys.
They're a new band, just give them time to grow.
@Nathaniel Birthurth let them grow into not being a cover band.
@Nathaniel Birthurth I understand where you're coming from, but I would have to respectfully disagree about originality. I think originality can be overrated sometimes, because music for most of history was passed down traditionally, and the low hanging fruit of musical innovation has already come and gone. Constantly trying to be "new" just degenerates music, and is antithetical to how music has always worked. So a band that sounds like the music their grandparents listened to isn't a bad thing in my opinion.
Nathaniel Birthurth, chill out dude. Why do you so desperately want rock to die? They are 16 year olds doing what 16 year olds do when they have these tools. They do a couple of covers, so what? I want them to continue doing zeppelin songs, and i want them to make “new zeppelin” songs as well. Wouldnt you rather have that than cardi b?
Nathaniel Birthurth, i see where you are coming from, but i think you are totally wrong. Greta is the new rock. Music is about innovation, but its not about changing instruments and genres every two years. If you listen to their songs, and just have a good time, then i think you might actually think they have a chance. It doesnt look like they are about to rip whole bars off of anyone. Also, to your second response, how would greta be a crappier version of zepplin if most people cant tell them apart? These kids are coming up with their own songs using real instruments. That deserves praise in this new crappy age of music.
Nathaniel Birthurth are you Trollin or some shit because your arguments suck. Just because they are similar they are unoriginal and don’t deserve a chance? Queen was written off as a Led Zeppelin knockoff and look what they accomplished. Imagine if everyone was as cynical as you? We would have absolutely no progress as a society. You are nothing but a stain on human history, you will never be remembered for what little good you’ve done because of the shit streak you’ve left on the internet. Good job.
Great overview! I'm 57 and I think what makes Greta Van Fleet great is their youth and energy. It's amazing they are right out of high school and that talented. Josh has a incredible voice but I'm afraid he'll burn it out with heavy touring. I hope they evolve like Rush did and create their own sound, and hopefully bring modern rock out of the doldrums its been in for decades.
6:46 someone stole this bit of line and posted as a comment in one of greta's video😂
Great great video. Point out the obvious, your not making excuses… just putting it out there. NOW JUST ENJOY THE MUSIC! Don’t overthink it. Only leads to resentment.
If I had Plants vocals I wouldn’t give a flying f**k what people thought!
This band actually gets my attention more than any Nan in the last decade
It’s not about his voice, he can’t help he sounds like someone born before him. It’s the fact they took the easy way and ripped their aesthetic and sound. The only people who love Greta are nostalgia junkies who don’t know what it takes to make great music and just want to be fed the same shit because it’s familiar to them.
@@johnathonlongtin2275 not at all they are a good band a couple high pitch screams does not equal LED ZEPPELIN and in general they don't sound like ZEPPELIN at all
FloodyBoy Randal are you lying to me or yourself lol. They’re a good band with and unoriginal sound. It’s not “a few high pitched screams”, he sounds like plant, and I literally said he can’t help that he sounds like Robert plant because it’s his voice, that’s not the big deal. The problem is the band behind him wants to be zeppelin. You can hear it in every song. Anyone who says otherwise is too wrapped up in their nostalgia or don’t know what they’re talking about. I mean come on, watch videos of the singer copying Robert Plants hand and body mannerisms to the T on stage. It’s pretty cut and dry. I get GVF has a fan base that can’t accept it but all of their best hits don’t even make it on zeppelins back catalogue. All they’re doing is riding coattails instead of making something truly unique.
@@johnathonlongtin2275 apparently myself I'm 52 but I am familiar with Gvf . my friends are not so after arguing with people in this comment section I tried a little experiment and played it for non bias people it was unanimous across the board they all thought they sounded like ZEPPELIN I stand corrected
@@johnathonlongtin2275 safari song, lover leaver,and flower power were the songs I played didn't even play highway tune and I still lost
What can you do?I can't be wrong when it's my opinion
They sound like Led Zeppelin?? Then I'm gonna listen to Greta Van Fleet all day long and love it!!
They have a passing resemblance. They have nowhere near the innovation, musicianship or songwriting ability.
@@BungleJoogie68 IDK, they are pretty damn similar. If anything, I could see them being a Zeppelin cover band. They do have the sound, and considering they are at the beginning of their career (and their second album sounded more like Zeppelin than the first), I wager a bet that they will develop a sound even closer to Zeppelin over the next few years.
structure wise yes they do,but that singer doesnt have roberts chops,not even close to the same texture and quality.
@@midnightmutants collectively, yes, they do have the ability to write a Coda B-side, but individually the instrumentalists fall far short of their influences. If you were to notate their stuff vs. LZ you'd notice their comparitive lack of musicianship. The bass lines are way too straightforward, the drumming isn't as risky, the guitar isn't as improvised, etc.
they have a similar style to zeppelin, but they will never have the ability of zeppelin, the drummer is nowhere near Bonhams level and will never get there, Bonhams drumming carried zeppelin a lot of the time and GVF drummer doesn't have the same power and precision, there's just similarities in Plant and Josh's voice that's it
I love Zep and I like GVF. This is a honest review. They did borrow lyrics and riffs. But the covers and borrowed lyrics etc are as good as the originals if not better. I actually love GVF. I got my Led Zeppelin obsessed older brother (who got me into Led Zeppelin when I was three ) into Greta Van Fleet.
The new album releases July 21 2023. They’ve teased a couple songs on streaming services.
I was raised on Led Zeppelin and I miss the band SO much... I Love these guys and I can but give them a warm welcome to my favorite band list now. Thanks for bringing back the music I loved!!!!!!!!
Yeah I was raised on Zeppelin too, but I will not support a shitty cover band.
Just listen to the real thing, not fucking Greta van fleet

Fuck yeah. 48 and love it
I grew up on Zeppelin and am amazed by this group..I feel like I'm young again...LOL..Love em!!!
Josh is growing, but let's not take nothing away from Jake, Sam and Daniel....these kids have evolved....in my thoughts.... to the greatest Rock n Roll band of the 20's...(that's 2020's) from an old R&R fiend.....that was weened on Bob Dylan and Carole King....i have shook hands and set down and had drinks with some blues legends....BB King, Greg Allman..Old Classics in small bars, Black Oak Arkansas, Outlaws...and Nugent in my small town of Paducah when I was still in the single digits...(complements of my sister)..to name a few....(i'm sure they would approve!) there's not much out there I haven't heard.....unless we hit the 90's....I became a bit selective.......but from the 30's big Band til now....they got it, they got the talent, they got the ear, they got the drive! Proud of these kids for reviving "old school R&R" with a mix of all the things of the past and present... KEEP DOING WHAT YOUR DOIN GRETA VAN FLEET CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU LIVE!
it's almost besides the point, if a group of barely-20-year-olds can find success playing this "dated music", it might get more of their generation interested, and get studios investing and signing more bands like them (that's what studios do), the loop starts feeding itself. before you know it, we just might get a rock revival movement rolling.
What about the rock revival of the early 2000's including both garage rock (The Strokes, The White Stripes, Arctic Monkeys) and post-punk (Interpol, The Killers)? Or bands heavily influenced from the psychedelic era (Tame Impala, MGMT)? There have certainly been recent rock revival movements, and guitar-driven music is still alive and well.
As for Greta Van Fleet: the issue is that, compared to even older rock movements such as blues and folk, the 70's hard rock sound has not aged very well and is more prone to anachronism than those mentioned styles. But you're right in that we won't know how to "modernize" hard rock until we make it relevant once again-even if that means having to endure unimaginative artists such as GVF.
Yes. to this. Always. Yes.
I really hope rock makes a comeback. And about Greta Van Fleet sounding like Led Zep, I don't think they're forcing it. I honestly think it's their influences showing through. I like em!
and then after a few year we'll get a revival of 80s thrash metal!
YEEEEAAAAA
"...and many more." *Blue Man Group*
Music is expression no one complains when wrappers use Classic Rock for their artistic expression
I can't wait to see Gretta Von 70's live in concert since I was too young to experience Zep live
I saw Zep live 5 times from the late 60's into the early 70s, starting with the Fillmore East show (while on some very good acid) in the summer of '69 during their 2nd US tour when I was 18. To paraphrase Senator Lloyd Bentsen's great put down of Dan Quayle during their VP debate, "I saw Led Zeppelin, I'm a fan of Led Zeppelin and you are no Led Zeppelin!"
I remember in high school 1999 we heard a band in the car my friends were like “these guys sound exactly like Bush”. Turns out it was Nickelback lol
I saw nickleback open for three doors down. Lol. At the time TDD had a hit album and nickleback was a no name with one song making some radio play. Now TDD is a long gone one record wonder while nickleback turned to bubblegum rock with many hit albums now. They didn’t sound like they do now, they actually had a mosh pit and rocked hard.
There's no "next Led Zeppelin". There's Led Zeppelin and everything else.
Led Zeppelin is super overrated tho
stop talking your embarrassing yourself
Tony, el sudakita, Bosca Lol no. Go listen to your teletubbies.
Skelly Led Zeppelin is the most entry level rock band on the planet. Implying I dont have a good taste because I think they are overrated is ridiculous
Tony, el sudakita, Bosca, shut up stupid, Led Zeppelin is the most influential rock and roll band, their song are probably the best song of rocks, of course there are more awesome bands like Pink Floyd, Queen, Deep Purple, The Beatles, but thanks to Led Zeppelin we have the actual rock. Please, listen more music of them, and stop making a fool of yourself.
P.D.: ''el sudakita'' con ese apodo no creo que tu opinión siquiera deba ser considerada. Ridículo.
They remind me more of Rush especially the vocals are strongly reminiscent of Geddy Lee to me but I can also hear a bit of Led in there as well :D
Me and friends have had long conversations about how rock and roll or the blues has influenced bands.
That just the way it is and the way it will always be
Remember when the 90s happened and all those grunge bands came out and they clearly had a very heavy classic rock influence and yet they were all completely original at the same time? Remember a couple years later when Jeff Buckley came out and he clearly had a huge Led Zeppelin influence and yet he was completely original at the same time? Man, that was wild.

Another way to view it is that Jeff Buckley had a huge Tim Buckley influence which is, of course, totally understandable but I'm always amazed that Buckley fans never gave his dad any props whatsoever. (Some don't even know of the familial connection). If you hear Tim then you know where Jeff got the chops which he used to come up with his own thing.
Led zeppelin were so good because they revolutionised sound, greta van fleet are good but sounding like zep and being the new zep are different things.
Cillian Reilly Zep did the same thing with the music of others as Fleet is doing with their music.
Allen Ellsworth What are you taking about? Zeppelin was a revolution and they influenced many of next great musicians and groups.
GVF are only a curious band and they are only good.
Cotramjoxxx Google it they borrowed a lot from others. Which I have absolutely no problem with because I don't believe you can own sound
Absolutely, but the matter is not what but how.
Zeppelin take a lot of another groups like lyrics and progressions. But with that and his own sound changed rock music and they contributed a lot of the music nowadays.
God! How can you deny it?
Revolutionized 😂😂😂😂😂 I love led zeppelin-I own all of their albums... but let's be serious, they're just really good at recycling the work of black musicians.
Don't blindly follow anyone.
Whatever people say, we rock fans are in need of rock bands in this the new era full of pop and edm and rap shit. It’s a welcome that these guys are here
Hate them or not, they’re helping rock out in this chaos
There are plenty of rock bands out there, the real question is, do they want to reach the top? Rappers are successful because they only think about winning, rock musicians are scared of being called sellouts.
The taboo about success sank rock.
I can listen to both Led Zeppelin and Greta van fleet all day. At first I didn't like Greta, because I grew up on Led Zeppelin thanks to my dad. Then I listened to all their albums. Now I cannot stop listening to them. My dad enjoys them as well. Music is music. Ill definitely let my kid(s) listen to both Greta and Led Zeppelin. My dad generation and my own.

Exactly, thank you. Instead of all these assholes shoving their useless opinions down our throats regarding what they think this band should and shouldn't do like they're some sort of expert (cinema slut) just enjoy it for what it is. Fuck
@@ericd1632 Enjoy shit? I'll take the steak and potatoes, fresh! Once the benefits have been absorbed by microbes and recycled through my organs, you may gladly enjoy your meal, fresh from my colon.
Singer says not Robert Plant influenced at all. He was dressing like Plant from the beginning. Hiphuggers!Thats what they called the low wasted, jean's, pants, w/flared legs at the bottom(bell bottoms, and really flared Elephant bell jeans/pants), with open vest, all chest. Kinda cool! And then that "No Plant influences" Credibility/integrity went right down the shitter with that kind of talk. He said he's more influenced by Steven Tyler, Aerosmith! LMFAO! I did hear a tune that was all Geddy Lee(Rush) vocal sound. At least the guitarist said Jimmy Page was a big influence(thumbs up, for being truthful!). They grew up(the 3 brothers) in a small town, housebound, and listened to their dads giant collection of blues records(the stuff the bands they were influenced by listened to in the 60's). Dad must be 80yrs old. I'm 50 and had a Zeppelin album at around 6yrs old. Then, my tastes evolved to Black Sabbath, Rush, Aerosmith, and by Junior high, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, then Metallica "Kill em All" release changed everything(well, it was a Metal style few bands played, heavier/faster, start/stop tightness!) which has grown and evolved. If I grew up listening to the blues from 60 years ago(they didn't have a radio?), I'd be playing the blues! And the drummer is a "friend" who plays the exact drum kit John Bonham of Zeppelin played, which was a different setup than other bands. Larger diameter bass drum, tuned a certain way. Bonham loved the sound! So a great setup for Zeppelin songs. Many songwriters would sue Greta Van Fleet, as the small part of "Highway Song", is almost note for note with a song from Zeppelin's "Physical Graffiti" album. When listening/playing music throughout a long life, you'll pick up many things. Then a very clear dejavu feeling hits you, and you know you've been here many, many times. But something's different? Oh, it's not Zeppelin?! Could have fooled me! Just give credit where credit is due, or some acknowledgement to those who influenced you. Not the guys who influenced the guys who you're listening to, but to the ones that bridged the gap between the two.
Eric D Well said, my hard rock, loving friend, and I HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
soulfulpizza14 I miss it as well. Grew up on it and still loving it!!! 🎉
They are so very young. You have no idea how nice it is to hear blues rock revive. I feel the vocals are much more Getty Lee than Plant. Just my op.
3000 people are lying to themselves with that dislike
I say, if that's what it takes for a new generation to get back into rock music and save us from the horror of pop, then rip off zeppelin all you like.
AnalogOpher rock on
best comment ever
I am with you man. We need more music like this. Even metal is getting repetitive. We need more rock and roll!!
Pop will always exist so long as there are people who like music. Glad to see a blues/hard rock revival though! Although rock is in my blood, you still have to respect other styles too. Otherwise, this revival will sound exactly like the old times, and that’s not fun, eh?
They get inspired by led zep but I bet that in a few years they will find their own new sound and will blow us away. Pop is not a bad thing but it is dominated by money most out of all styles, because most people like it. Greed and manipulation with the listener is what corrupts it.
The best description of this band I've heard is this; they are every 'I was born in the wrong era modern music sucks' comment on UA-cam made real.
Obviously, bands are always going to sound like bands that came before them - influences will be worn. You can hear tonnes of Husker Du, Ramones and even Stiff Little Fingers influences in Green Day, for example. But I think GVF's problem is a) they actively sound like they are trying SO HARD to sound like Led Zeppelin, and b) don't seem to have any other influences. At least other bands mix multiple influences together and bring something different - I adore Night Flight Orchestra, who play a lot of throwback 70s-80s styles of classic rock, but bring tonnes of influence and branch out to stuff like funk and disco occasionally. GVF's influence is just 'Led Zeppelin' and that's it. Seemingly. And because they skyrocketed to popularity so fast, what would normally be the early records where they grow in confidence before really diversifying are what everyone is hearing RIGHT NOW. I actually hope they do have the room to grow and incorporate new sounds going forward.
Excellent comment.
Thank you for the Night Flight Orchestra - i was looking for something like that.
Heard many of their songs. All i can say is "Generic" made to SOUND like the 70's. Its a lot of posing and posturing. They are a marketers dream for sure but the music is anything but original. They do not have an original sound. ELO sounds like ELO. U2 sounds like U2. AC-DC sound like AC- DC. Greta Van Fleet sounds like.....??? That's their problem.
Your comment is on point, and is completely solid on its own merit. But I'd have giving you a thumbs up, strictly for referencing Stiff Little Fingers alone. Cheers!
I haven't much by them yet, but I've been impressed. I always liked Kingdom Come and that song by Billy Squier. Led Zeppelin is my favorite band, so any similar sounding band is my style
at first, absolutely. But their newest album they are making their own sound. A really interesting mix of Rush and Zeppelin, but most importantly becoming Greta Van Fleet. Their newest album is without a doubt the most interesting album they’ve put out, and they’ve continued to move away from just being Led Zeppelin with every LP and Album. They’re finding their own voice, just took a minute
Its really just the voice. The guitarist isnt jimmy page i think its just sayin really the singer is the next robert plant
@Second Earth exactly ive heard him kinda take a lick jimmy would play and maybe repeat it a few times or somethin like that. Jimmys just one of a kind. I can always tell the difference between the 2 bands simply because of the guitar work
And the drummer is good af too, maybe not as good John was but he’s great still
Jimmy Page took a while to get going too. We must give the young one a chance.
Second Earth I mean pages solos were almost exclusively pentatonic or hexatonic
Dru Tyra these are basically just kids? Do you even understand that?
I was blown away when I first heard them on the radio. Been a fan ever since. Do love that they are retro rock.
I no longer listen to FM radio,and have not for twenty years. The promoters have destroyed modern music. I have discovered some awesome on the internet. It is good to know that some young artist are creating some good rock music. I am sure that the big promoters will keep a short leash on them. Keep on keeping on.

They attack anything new.
The music industry is destroying music, have been doing for decades. Don't blame the fans, blame the industry leaders. People who care more about maximizing profits and limiting risks through proven, bland, predictable formulas destroy art. This is happening in all artistic mediums, from music, to movies, to videogames; and it ain't the fault of a minority of old elitists I can tell you that now.
MALICEM12 that’s why you gotta support independent labels. Look at king gizzard and flightless records - they’re incredibly prolific and creative with each new release and they’re able to because they run their own label.
