Yeah look at me I criticize a bunch of kids who make music that sounds like old stuff but I also criticize any new artist because I have no criterion and I haven't achieved anything important in life
I know man but here are grown men and women speaking about them like they were almost terrorist hahha... They are JUST kids, let them develop their sound and be grateful they are doing that kind of music in this plastic and trendy but talentless industry
Well, guess I'm just spoiled on the real deal. Anyone and any band can reach a very high profile if they have the goods...and enough money that's how corrupt the music "business" is. Page was a session musician that pooled all his experience into forming Led Zeppelin and that's where his creative spark came from. He also wanted musicians that were good enough to share the attention equally on the songs they wrote and was "lucky" enough to find Plant and Bonham both of whom were unique enough in their style and just what Page wanted and ended up changing the game, JPJ was smart enough to volunteer for the job as bassist and keyboards and equally as talented. They were doing what nobody else was doing at the time which absolutely worked in their favor. The result was a catalog of music that just hit you off the bat. Being a Led Zeppelin fan is like finding the love of your life...no one else can follow the act no matter how hard you try to look.
Anyway, great musicians and beautiful minds. It's really cool to have the opportunity to discover Danny and Sam a little more. I do like this band. Can't wait for the new album and to hear it on stage.

This is the most wholesome interview ever for some reason, wow they really are good people and doing music for all the right reasons
They seem like some really cool guys. I am like they are about music sometimes I will just sit outside and listen for hours if it’s nice. And whenever a new band pops up I always get excited.
Wow lots of people here must have very sad, empty lives. To watch a video of a band you don't like and spout abuse about the way they look or the music they're playing... It just smacks of jealousy. Does your own wee favourite band not get enough attention? 😢 Is that what it is? Don't you have anything better to do? Something positive maybe, like listen to music you like, or find another hobby, read, learn about the world....
There's a lot of salty Boomers in these comments... If you hate Greta Van Fleet so much, why try and rip them apart in the comments? They're very very talented and have a bright future, so just worry about yourselves and stop comparing.
I'm a boomer and I've always loved Zeppelin, but in my opinion, these guys are obviously talented and anyone who says otherwise is just fooling themselves. And no, they didn't get where they are now because they had money or means...they worked their asses off and played wherever and whenever they could; that's where they got found. They no longer sound like Zeppelin, they sound like Greta Van Fleet, and I couldn't be happier.
The amount of hate in this comment section is insane. The video is online for one hour and everything I read is full of hate. If you don't like them, why do you keep watching the videos? Just to put some hate out there? Now for real, their newer stuff doesn't even sound like zep anymore. Is used to sound a little like it, but really you can easily tell them apart now, if you can't, I suggest listening a little more closely to both Zeppelin and GVF. And even then they literally do no harm by sounding like this. Everything else is just a matter of personal taste, so please think again before you post something filled with hate, only reading this literally makes me feel sick. Oh and not to forget can we stop telling people what to listen to and what not? There are many reasons why people like different songs and artists and none of them are your buisness Edit: spelling
Tbh they bring it on them themselves. Judging by your comment you must be a big fan which is cool and all you do you but they are so unoriginal it hurts. They have potential but they dont push any boundaries and it comes off as a lazy attempt to just be a cash grab on nostalgia. I do admit I do like one song which is Black Smoke Rising but other than that they are just meh. Just my opinion
@@citizenerased174 The problem is that not everyone has this "you do you" attitude. Alright, you think they are unoriginal. Maybe I just hear something in their music you don't, and there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that some people tend to put their hate out there being nothing but disrespectful. Arguing about music on the internet is so exhausting.
@@elisabethbender7683 I explained it in my comment. But music is subjective and there are always gonna be people who feel like their music is superior to everyone else's cause it's what they like and its automatically garbage if they dont like a certain band. That's never gonna change. I dont really like GVF but I understand others do and that's great that's the beauty of music. Just dont get defensive when others talk crap about a band you like cause if you like them that's all that matters.
@@elisabethbender7683 The two of the most polarizing issues of the 21st century; Trump being elected and GVF wanting to be Led Zeppelin both brought it upon themselves!
It's funny how most people don't know what "rip off", and " influences" are, Zeppelin Ripped off Artists, GVf, has Influences, but writes their own music
Exactly, Zeppelin might have stolen notes, Greta stole a sound, that's a huge difference. That's why these guys don't deserve their success, they're unoriginal, plain and simple.
Dabs & Tea Time really because I believe it was Robert Plant that said that and if you watched the interview you can clearly tell he was joking when he said he hated them.
Is sounding like Led zep a bad thing though? The singer gets a lot of stick for sounding like him, which, you forget to admire because sounding like Plant is a skill. It keeps the spirit and sound of their music alive for new generations to appreciate. Some douches might say ‘who’s this Led zep the comments refer to’ And gain another set of fans so that their music isn’t lost. You tell me other bands that don’t sound frightfully similar to an older band and I’ll sit and wait. Plus, plant actually loved these and rated them as an up and coming group.
RP is very tired of being associated with the band that put him on the map in the first place so he's more than happy to hand over the reins to someone that's trying to take his place but the thing is that Robert was called irritating by critics and Led Zeppelin "hype" but but now it's the other way around, Robert was more operatic and ironically it's the other guy that's irritating with GVF being total hype because it sells.
Maybe it’s just me but they come across a bit douchey Saw them a couple months ago and the guitarist played a 10 minute solo where he just repeated the same licks over and over again. Overall was not very impressed, they are being pushed hard by the media and did not earn their way as other bands have.
Brett Fuller - ok I cannot let this comment go by. Don’t know what you mean by douchey do you mean shady? You say you went to see them so I will give you credit for that you gave them a try you must have liked something about them tickets are at least $100 - I’ve seen them twice general admission I got pretty close to the front so a good view they did not disappoint and there were fans of all ages which I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed in many years of concert going.. As for being “pushed by the media” I barely hear them on radio there’s one station that’s plays them maybe once a day and I’m in Toronto a fairly big city. They captured my interest a couple years ago I found them exciting to follow, they have their own minds no one is “pushing” them to share their views hell I even saw a twitter post two days ago with two radio jockeys in their hometown who mentioned they were trying to get them on the Ellen DeGeneris show and the boys said “daytime is not really their thing!” Who in their right mind would turn down a chance to be on arguably the biggest daytime talk show going?? Anyways I just couldn’t let your comment go without my big fan girl reply. 😀 Cheers.
Wow, what makes you say they haven't done their time as other bands have? They have actually been playing together since about 2012. They played tons of gigs in small bars etc that their parents would take them to as they were underage. They even played at biker parties in the woods! The media hasn't been pushing them at all, they barely get any radio play yet they've managed to build a massive fan base.They've really taken off in the last couple of years because so many people, myself included, have been waiting for a band like them for so long! I've seen them live three times now and they did not disappoint! And yes, I'm a fan girl. Proud to be!
Brett Fuller well guess what dude. I know it’s hard to believe but zeppelin, sabbath, purple, AC/DC, etc.. were all douchebags back then. I don’t know why people think artists were so humble back then. They weren’t, they knew they were famous and they acted like it
7:07 omg I think you can actually see a mark on his thumbnail. Looks like the whole tip was cut off, not just some skin. I would've like to know if it still feels differently and if it influences him playing instruments. And how did that happen? I hope this was an accident...
so many haters. calling them rip off artists with no record contracts to wipe up their stifled tears of jealousy. maybe these guys can lend them some......
How r they ripping of Led Zep. It's only highway tune that sounds like Zep. That was in their double EP. If you listen to their debut album, they produce more than just rip off songs. Plus they r one of the few rocks bands in the somewhat mainstream music industry. Without them, the only new songs you can listen to is rap and pop.
Ripping off would be if they stole riffs and shit which they have not done. All their songs are original, yes they have a similarity to zeppelin but they are very much their own band. There are so many bands that sound like each other but no one flips on them.
“Greta Van Fleet sound like they did weed exactly once, called the cops, and tried to record a Led Zeppelin album before they arrested themselves. The poor kids from Frankenmuth, Michigan don’t even realize they’re more of an algorithmic fever dream than an actual rock band.”-Pitchfork
With all the disasters and problems in this world people are watching videos of people they hate wasting time posting hate comments! I have an idea why don't you all find a worthwhile charity and do something positive with your time!
Visiting the past and blatant plagiarism are not the same thing. And of course there are a million bands that sound like Imagine Dragons, all pop sounds the same, it's called popular music for a reason.
There's a reason why Led Zeppelin were Led Zeppelin which is what GVF and their supporters do not understand. Anyone and any band can reach a very high profile if they have the goods...and enough money that's how corrupt the music "business" is. I know I've done enough research on the subject. Page was a session musician that pooled all his experience into forming Led Zeppelin and that's where his creative spark came from. He also wanted musicians that were good enough to share the attention equally on the songs they wrote and was "lucky" enough to find Plant and Bonham both of whom were unique enough in their style and just what Page wanted and ended up changing the game, JPJ was smart enough to volunteer for the job as bassist and keyboards and equally as talented and well versed in his craft. After Zeppelin he ends up being choirmaster for The World Renowned Vienna Boys Choir, not an easy feat, he also wrote his own opera bit of real genius there. They were doing what nobody else was doing at the time which absolutely worked in their favor. The result was a catalog of music that just hit you off the bat. Being a Led Zeppelin fan is like finding the love of your life...no one else can follow the act no matter how hard you try to look.
I listened to Highway tune : The Rover Standing On : Bron y stomp and Battle of Evermore Your the One : Your time is gonna come How much more do we need to listen to????
If the music was different at least I think they would sound alright. But the fact that they write classic rock sounding music along with the obvious Robert Plant like vocals it just sounds very unoriginal and bland. Develop a more modern sound musically and they wouldnt get shit on so much.
Please Robert plant wasn't ever original every one who does music is inspired and influenced by other bands people just love to hate especially lonely broken miserable pricks who have nothing going for them. They're jealous they'd love to be able to sing like Robert or to be in a famous band but they work a dull 9/5 shit job for shit money so they're miserable
@@jessieb9384 lmao your the one who is miserable with nothing better to do than get all butthurt at someone over the internet and leave a very detailed hate filled comment when what I said wasnt even hateful. Dont get mad cause someone else doesnt like the music you do it really shows how insecure you are....oh and by the way at least I have a job.
@@citizenerased174 GVF has their own sound too, but not really their own voice. That's why you don't have to like them even though the music is pretty good :)
Metal hasn’t had an exciting dangerous mainstream act since System of a down because the fans destroyed the genre clinging to the past. Older hip hop fans are showing early signs of doing that Aswell music needs to feel fresh not safe
What’s with the matching silk shirts? The questions in this interview are terrible. This interview seems like a “deep dive” into who you guys are that just went bad. It’s not shedding a positive light on you. You seem superficial here and even worse, contrived. So I really dig your music dudes. The Zeppelin thing is only gonna get you so far though. I am wondering when we will see and hear who you guys really are???
Tony Simmons Any publicity is good, I guess. I mean, when you manage to steal Zep’s sound you know your good, but if we were to get these dudes their own great sound and Steel Panther to be serious we got 2 true rock and roll bands
They didn’t try to be like led zeppelin. Josh started singing like that because of how loud the band was (when they were only in there garage and the amps were too loud) and he didn’t have a mike for a long period of time so he started signing like that because it was the only way he was able to be herd. And for the rest there main inspo was not led zeppelin. So before assuming things do a bit of research
@@lauraarsenault6072 Just because they shy away from the Zep comparison in interviews doesn’t mean they aren’t musically influenced by them. Josh was heavily influenced by RPlant. He even does the elegant hand gestures that Plant would do. He has talked about his influence by Plant. The other guys admit to being influenced by Zep AND other bands/genre’s as well. If you don’t hear the Zep influence in their music, you’re either not aware of Zep or you have a confirmation bias that they aren’t influenced by Zeppelin. It’s nothing to be leery of. Zep has influenced literally thousands of artists. The spirit of Zeppelin is to not have boundaries and be experimental as well. Never make the same song twice. But yes, I definitely hear JPage in Jake’s playing and John Paul Jones in Sam’s playing. Sam has even worked hard at his keyboard playing, and just like JPJ, he is the bass player as well. It’s crystal clear that Zep had a HUGE influence on them. Any music fan over 40 smiled the first time they heard the band. “Ah, a group of young guys paying tribute to the mighty Zep”.
Y’all say you don’t want rock n roll to be dead and as soon as a young rock band comes into the scene they just “aren’t good enough” for you. The most boomer thing you can say.
Yawn. i can understand why people dont like them. people wanna hear something new and original. That's why rock music is dying now. They sound like a 70s hard rock band. it's 2020 lol
People who talk like that listen to trash music. You’ve never heard of Highly Suspect, they have more talent in their fingers as opposed to any pop musician’s careers
I disagree, the reason why rock is dying is because rock fans DONT wanna hear anything new. Why else would bands like ghost or Greta van fleet, bands with sounds similar to older bands, be getting as popular as they are (that and the music industry just realized that other genres are way more profitable). I don’t even see it as a totally bad thing. I enjoy hearing different takes on a certain sound, plus nothing is really 100% original when you get down to it!
@@levibeam100 Like who? Not saying that there aren't but I just haven't found any lately. Not any rock bands that I would consider to be good anyway...
Sensual Cranjuice also rock has lots it’s touch in pop culture controversy. Back in the 80s you had a lot of metal bands involved in pop culture, mostly hair metal bands, but now rock is just sad it doesn’t have that bad boy mentality anymore
I wouldn't be so sure about that. He usually appears differently on stage, yet in interviews he can be pretty dominant and outgoing. And he once smashed a ukulele on his brothers head...
SD B that’s your opinion man I happen to like them very much. The way I see it they’re not ripping off Zepplin, but instead they are honoring them by continuing the greatness that they started
What a bunch of dumbass questions they were asked. I would have gotten up and walked away. Why are they asked these child like questions? How embarrassing. As for Zeppelin, my favorite band, they took from a lot of blues musicians, and others, and then made it into their own style. So Zeppelin, didn't come up with their own music, yes they wrote quite a bit of their own. At least GVF, wrote their own music. I like GVF, I don't understand why people are getting upset at them. Pay no attention to them then. I cannot stand country music, but I don't go around cutting it down. I am not much for Rap either. All throughout music, musicians have gotten their ideas from other musicians. I hated this interview, it was completely moronic. I believe *Loudwire* has something against them too. If not, who ever wrote the questions should be fired. Or at least reprimanded.
If you dont want to be the best and make the best music you possibly can, then whats the point of even making music if you're not serious about it and just be mediocre
Because it’s not just the outcome, it’s the process. Maybe you’ve never made music, but as someone who has, the process is so important. You focus on a part of a song for a month or two, and get really frustrated. Then something hits, you figure it out, and it’s amazing to you. It’s not all about the outcome.
The biggest nerds in rock n roll, and not the good kind. Loosen up and stop taking yourself too serious lol Their music is not complex and they’re already ripping off zeppelin. Have fun and lose the gimmick
liver666 that’s the problem with rock music now, too much nerds wayyy into it especially metal music, rock lost its bad boy vibe plus it’s far from pop culture now.
That's it, they sound like Led Zeppelin and that's really cool, but every song sounds the same. This alone ain't so bad, ACDC are doing the same thing since the seventies now. But I wish the lyrics were more than "Uh I'm afraid to die blablabla..."
Love the interview. Tell us more about sitting by a fire with your brothers copying licks from Led Zeppelins Madison Square Garden performance and putting them on your albums
Hey you know that one band from the 70's. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant had something to do with it? Well Siegfried and Roy (Roy is looking extra fresh) try to sound like anything other than a led zeppelin wedding cover band and the world will stop criticizing you. You know you do it you know you stole the sound feel and flow. Just admit it, move on and write something that doesn't sound like you are taking it from the zeppelin play book.

How r they ripping of Led Zep. It's only highway tune that sounds like Zep. That was in their double EP. If you listen to their debut album, they produce more than just rip off songs. Plus they r one of the few rocks bands in the somewhat mainstream music industry. Without them, the only new songs you can listen to is rap and pop.
Every song sounds like Zeppelin.
They’re not ripping off anything specific, the general sound and feel of a band is not copyrightable
Ripping off would be if they stole riffs and shit which they have not done. All their songs are original, yes they have a similarity to zeppelin but they are very much their own band. There are so many bands that sound like each other but no one flips on them.
“Greta Van Fleet sound like they did weed exactly once, called the cops, and tried to record a Led Zeppelin album before they arrested themselves. The poor kids from Frankenmuth, Michigan don’t even realize they’re more of an algorithmic fever dream than an actual rock band.”-Pitchfork
Rip off or not. Their music is good!
wow Milli Vanilli aged well......
@skullsxr Hahaha
They look like members of Locomia.
Mission Accomplished!
Greta Van Fleet has fans and haters. But we can all agree in one thing: those outfits are awful.
Speak for yourself. It's great that they're free wearing what they want. And this looks great.
samuel wdym move to the next question🤨
Have they moved onto the 80’s now?
With all the disasters and problems in this world people are watching videos of people they hate wasting time posting hate comments! I have an idea why don't you all find a worthwhile charity and do something positive with your time!
👍
Buenos músicos. They look likes members of Spanish group, Locomia.
No worries, they aren't experts. Was listening to Kingdom Come the other day. Anyone remember?
Was listening to them in Dec.
Why does everyone hate these guys, who cares what they sound like theirs a million imagine dragons sounding bands ,it's ok to revisit the past guys
Visiting the past and blatant plagiarism are not the same thing. And of course there are a million bands that sound like Imagine Dragons, all pop sounds the same, it's called popular music for a reason.
They are basicly major label's attempt to reach out boomer's wallet with nostelgia.
They saw the potential and jumped on it.
Thanks!!! I've always thought that about them since day one
@BrianMWrong Can you sound like Zep? It's so easy to criticize....
Learn to write man
yeah... no.
Oh my god I’m the kid who would watch Fantasia when everybody else whined about it😭
Wow Danny is pretty
There's a reason why Led Zeppelin were Led Zeppelin which is what GVF and their supporters do not understand. Anyone and any band can reach a very high profile if they have the goods...and enough money that's how corrupt the music "business" is. I know I've done enough research on the subject. Page was a session musician that pooled all his experience into forming Led Zeppelin and that's where his creative spark came from. He also wanted musicians that were good enough to share the attention equally on the songs they wrote and was "lucky" enough to find Plant and Bonham both of whom were unique enough in their style and just what Page wanted and ended up changing the game, JPJ was smart enough to volunteer for the job as bassist and keyboards and equally as talented and well versed in his craft. After Zeppelin he ends up being choirmaster for The World Renowned Vienna Boys Choir, not an easy feat, he also wrote his own opera bit of real genius there. They were doing what nobody else was doing at the time which absolutely worked in their favor. The result was a catalog of music that just hit you off the bat. Being a Led Zeppelin fan is like finding the love of your life...no one else can follow the act no matter how hard you try to look.
All these hating boomers... y’all have probably only heard a couple of their songs.
Proxy Effect I like them lol
I listened to
Highway tune : The Rover
Standing On : Bron y stomp and Battle of Evermore
Your the One : Your time is gonna come
How much more do we need to listen to????
@@lucilianogueira3072 yet again, only a couple of their songs
I call them Ed Zeppelin
insomniac_biz underrated comment
Overrated I would say... The funny thing is that you must feel super original hahha
The L is missing because they already took it...
@@enriquepastor3626 With the shit pop music that is made nowadays, they're refreshing. They're kids inspired by classical rock, they'll evolve
Everyone in this comment section seems to have dropped out of English in fifth grade...
I dropped out in 3rth grade
I don't think they have anything to worry about
If the music was different at least I think they would sound alright. But the fact that they write classic rock sounding music along with the obvious Robert Plant like vocals it just sounds very unoriginal and bland. Develop a more modern sound musically and they wouldnt get shit on so much.
Please Robert plant wasn't ever original every one who does music is inspired and influenced by other bands people just love to hate especially lonely broken miserable pricks who have nothing going for them. They're jealous they'd love to be able to sing like Robert or to be in a famous band but they work a dull 9/5 shit job for shit money so they're miserable
@@jessieb9384 lmao your the one who is miserable with nothing better to do than get all butthurt at someone over the internet and leave a very detailed hate filled comment when what I said wasnt even hateful. Dont get mad cause someone else doesnt like the music you do it really shows how insecure you are....oh and by the way at least I have a job.
These chicks rock!
Hopefully they can put a solid catalogue together & not flame out✌️🤘
Never heard of them....
They're bootleg Led Zeplin
Now you have
At least it isn’t another lame ghost video though
What's lame about Ghost though
FleightYT 😂
Just askin ;)
At least Ghost has their own sound
@@citizenerased174 GVF has their own sound too, but not really their own voice. That's why you don't have to like them even though the music is pretty good :)
What's your favourite Disney movie? -_- Seriously?
Metal hasn’t had an exciting dangerous mainstream act since System of a down because the fans destroyed the genre clinging to the past. Older hip hop fans are showing early signs of doing that Aswell music needs to feel fresh not safe
What’s with the matching silk shirts? The questions in this interview are terrible. This interview seems like a “deep dive” into who you guys are that just went bad. It’s not shedding a positive light on you. You seem superficial here and even worse, contrived. So I really dig your music dudes. The Zeppelin thing is only gonna get you so far though. I am wondering when we will see and hear who you guys really are???
Tony Simmons Any publicity is good, I guess. I mean, when you manage to steal Zep’s sound you know your good, but if we were to get these dudes their own great sound and Steel Panther to be serious we got 2 true rock and roll bands
Snowblind These cats just not deep thinkers but it’s cool. It’s rnr
Tony Simmons I mean if they got their own sound they could save the radio
They didn’t try to be like led zeppelin. Josh started singing like that because of how loud the band was (when they were only in there garage and the amps were too loud) and he didn’t have a mike for a long period of time so he started signing like that because it was the only way he was able to be herd. And for the rest there main inspo was not led zeppelin. So before assuming things do a bit of research
@@lauraarsenault6072 Just because they shy away from the Zep comparison in interviews doesn’t mean they aren’t musically influenced by them.
Josh was heavily influenced by RPlant. He even does the elegant hand gestures that Plant would do. He has talked about his influence by Plant. The other guys admit to being influenced by Zep AND other bands/genre’s as well. If you don’t hear the Zep influence in their music, you’re either not aware of Zep or you have a confirmation bias that they aren’t influenced by Zeppelin. It’s nothing to be leery of. Zep has influenced literally thousands of artists. The spirit of Zeppelin is to not have boundaries and be experimental as well. Never make the same song twice. But yes, I definitely hear JPage in Jake’s playing and John Paul Jones in Sam’s playing. Sam has even worked hard at his keyboard playing, and just like JPJ, he is the bass player as well. It’s crystal clear that Zep had a HUGE influence on them. Any music fan over 40 smiled the first time they heard the band. “Ah, a group of young guys paying tribute to the mighty Zep”.
*HOW DARE YOU?!!*
Y’all say you don’t want rock n roll to be dead and as soon as a young rock band comes into the scene they just “aren’t good enough” for you. The most boomer thing you can say.
I would rather rock be dead than have these clowns
Lost all respect for Dan, pineapple on pizza
Did you guys steal that logo from persona 5
They steal everything
"I couldn't play golf!" what a kind of rich people are you dude?
He gave up a potential career in golf for music. He was one of the leading players in the country for his age group.
He's a good enough golfer to have become a pro.
how long have you xentlexers been on HRT
When the new album comming out
they haven't confirmed any release date yet, someone heard on a radio station that it would come out in february but here we are
Yawn. i can understand why people dont like them. people wanna hear something new and original. That's why rock music is dying now. They sound like a 70s hard rock band. it's 2020 lol
Rock isn’t dying. Start looking in the right places.
People who talk like that listen to trash music. You’ve never heard of Highly Suspect, they have more talent in their fingers as opposed to any pop musician’s careers
I disagree, the reason why rock is dying is because rock fans DONT wanna hear anything new. Why else would bands like ghost or Greta van fleet, bands with sounds similar to older bands, be getting as popular as they are (that and the music industry just realized that other genres are way more profitable). I don’t even see it as a totally bad thing. I enjoy hearing different takes on a certain sound, plus nothing is really 100% original when you get down to it!
@@levibeam100 Like who? Not saying that there aren't but I just haven't found any lately. Not any rock bands that I would consider to be good anyway...
Sensual Cranjuice also rock has lots it’s touch in pop culture controversy. Back in the 80s you had a lot of metal bands involved in pop culture, mostly hair metal bands, but now rock is just sad it doesn’t have that bad boy mentality anymore
I just came here to say: the logo used in the thumbnail looks like the persona 5 font......sorry, but I don't know these guys.
Dude on the left saying all the right things to hide the fact that he’s never been to the principal’s office
I wouldn't be so sure about that. He usually appears differently on stage, yet in interviews he can be pretty dominant and outgoing. And he once smashed a ukulele on his brothers head...
He was arrested once
This band is so ridiculous it’s stunning that ANYONE gives them the time of day. Just put on Zeppelin. The obvious ripoff is a disgrace.
So if you sounded like Robert plant you wouldn’t try to be a musician?
SD B that’s your opinion man I happen to like them very much. The way I see it they’re not ripping off Zepplin, but instead they are honoring them by continuing the greatness that they started
You don't know what you're talking about, they are very good. I want to hear your music and compare it to their album
@@levibeam100 You could try to do not the exact same thing like Robert Plant
@@The_blindpizzaguy1300 But led Zeppelin didn't just sound good, the lyrics were kind of interesting too.
those shirts are more masculine than plants was in the song remains the same. just sayin
FINALLY I have found some true music lovers that see the fakeness of those band!!!!
What a bunch of dumbass questions they were asked. I would have gotten up and walked away. Why are they asked these child like questions? How embarrassing. As for Zeppelin, my favorite band, they took from a lot of blues musicians, and others, and then made it into their own style. So Zeppelin, didn't come up with their own music, yes they wrote quite a bit of their own. At least GVF, wrote their own music. I like GVF, I don't understand why people are getting upset at them. Pay no attention to them then. I cannot stand country music, but I don't go around cutting it down. I am not much for Rap either. All throughout music, musicians have gotten their ideas from other musicians. I hated this interview, it was completely moronic. I believe *Loudwire* has something against them too. If not, who ever wrote the questions should be fired. Or at least reprimanded.
It's just a fun interview. Chill.
this video smell like weed ("i would like to be an expert gardener")
Zed Leppelin
This is Spinal Tap.
🤘🏼
If you dont want to be the best and make the best music you possibly can, then whats the point of even making music if you're not serious about it and just be mediocre
Because it’s not just the outcome, it’s the process. Maybe you’ve never made music, but as someone who has, the process is so important. You focus on a part of a song for a month or two, and get really frustrated. Then something hits, you figure it out, and it’s amazing to you. It’s not all about the outcome.
The biggest nerds in rock n roll, and not the good kind. Loosen up and stop taking yourself too serious lol Their music is not complex and they’re already ripping off zeppelin. Have fun and lose the gimmick
liver666 that’s the problem with rock music now, too much nerds wayyy into it especially metal music, rock lost its bad boy vibe plus it’s far from pop culture now.
Idgaf what y’all say I like their music
Amen
Because if they did they would realize they suck.
I used to have so much hope for this band but they ended up being one of the most boring bands ever.
That's it, they sound like Led Zeppelin and that's really cool, but every song sounds the same. This alone ain't so bad, ACDC are doing the same thing since the seventies now. But I wish the lyrics were more than "Uh I'm afraid to die blablabla..."
They became a “Hippie” band, they moved away from the black smoke rising type songs.
Love the interview. Tell us more about sitting by a fire with your brothers copying licks from Led Zeppelins Madison Square Garden performance and putting them on your albums
Hey you know that one band from the 70's. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant had something to do with it? Well Siegfried and Roy (Roy is looking extra fresh) try to sound like anything other than a led zeppelin wedding cover band and the world will stop criticizing you. You know you do it you know you stole the sound feel and flow. Just admit it, move on and write something that doesn't sound like you are taking it from the zeppelin play book.
Lmao
They aren't.
Well they’re certainly not experts in fashion either that’s for sure.
Its just part of their gimmick they dress like the guys from the 60s&70s they always have.
is a 16 year old girl asking the questions?
That joke is old
Lame Zeppelin
So what, why can’t you like a young rock band?
STOP👏🏻ASKING👏🏻SAMMY👏🏻IF👏🏻HE’S👏🏻BEEN👏🏻ARRESTED👏🏻
That Off the Record logo looks like something put of Persona 5
They need to stop raiding their grandmas closet....
Is that so? Then I’ve got great news for them!
They're experts at ripping off a bands sound
Hmm. Isnt that with any genre of music?
@@pk3rl0rd not really being inspired and being a copy cat are very different
