    Will there ever be a band as good as Led Zeppelin?

    I often wonder what it is or what it was that made Led Zeppelin hands down the greatest band of all?

    Any ideas?

    Also who do you think is the best band currently together and still performing?

    Some say Radiohead and others say U2. Who do you think?

    I'm a Metallica fan... But Zepplin does rock
    Behind every great woman, is a guy looking at her ass.

        IMHO, there have been quite a few bands better than Led Zeppelin. Were they really that good? I don't think so.

              Zeppelin sold over 300 000 000 albums with 100 000 000 in North America.

              They are truly a Rock N Roll Legend.

              I would also put Pink Floyd right up there with them as Legends.

                  Just listen to The Song Remains The Same, a Led Zeppelin concert recorded in Madison Square Garden, and keep in mind it is live, they sound unbelievable. There are not many bands who sound much better live than in their recordings.

                      When you see Led Zeppelin LIVE it is as close to a religious experience that you can imagine!

                      I've seen Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, AC/DC and Aerosmith "LIVE" and "YES" they are really that good!

                      Anyone who has seen a better band than Led Zeppelin please let me know and I will be at their next show!

                      Ah yes Deep Purple, good times my friend but if Zep was a scale above then who do you rate the "BEST"?

                          i don't think todays' bands will ever come close... there are some very talented artists, but they choose to perform shit because that's what sells...


                          led zeppelin
                          pink floyd

                              Floyd is amazing.

                              I think that these bands fall into the category of "Legends". I guess it all depends on what is meant by "as good as". Some have better musical talent, some better writing, some have the added push from the times in which they were living.

                              I think I will put on "Over the Hills and Far Away", and follw it with "Wish you were here".

                                    Chris Martin. Twice.

                                      I have had the pleasure of seeing Zep. It was phenomenal, however of the bands mentioned I think that the floyd concerts I attended were better "shows". Floyd put a lot of theatrics into their stage show.

                                      In my lifetime, I think the best concerts I've ever been to include:

                                      Zep & Floyd - as mentioned
                                      Van Halen - The dave years
                                      Rolling Stones seen 'em in the 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's!
                                      AC/DC
                                      Aerosmith
                                      Elvis - That's right, I said elvis.
                                      Kiss - in the 70's
                                      Monsters of rock - circa 1981. (Van Halen, Scorpions, and a bunch more)
                                      Eagles
                                      Queen
                                      U2

                                      man.... I haven't been to a show even close to one of those in a long time.

                                            I seen U2 in concert with 7,500 other people and it's still my favorite concert.

                                              Bands with real talent aren't commercial. That's why in today's music market you can hold auditions, pick 5 hawt guys, get 'em a choreographer, a good engineer and then you can sell millions and millions....of t shirts and merchandise.

                                              Now, where did I put my keys with the N'Sync keychain?

                                                I can't believe nobody has mentioned 2LiveCrew j/p

                                                I think Floyd edges out Led Zep by a hair, but Kashmir > * IMHO.

                                                      There was another band famouse pretty well - Jethro Tull
                                                      That time they were the same level of popularity as Zeps

                                                        Bands today suck, usually the only songs that make it to the radio are covers anyway.

                                                        Zepplin
                                                        Aerosmith
                                                        AC/DC

                                                        and others still make radio playlists, bands from 2 weeks ago can't even say that.

                                                          Back then,Zepplin was one of the best..every band has a unique style,but Zepplin had a sound of their own

                                                                Depends on your generation I guess. I'm personally not much of a fan of Zep. I'm also not much of a fan of what's commercial. I have however seen many live shows and DVD's of live shows in the past including Zep. Love him or hate him, Marilyn Manson puts on one hell of a show as does Slipknot (if you are looking at commercial bands).

                                                                For classics, I'm a fan of G n' R. I thought they did as much for the newer generation as Zep did for the generation before it. Nirvana kicked it up a notch after that, but because their career was so short, it was impossible to see if their greatness could carry on.

                                                                However, I must say that my preferences of live shows are more along the edge of Deftones, Dropkick Murphys, The Horrors, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and everything in between, so we do have different tastes

                                                                  I can only imagine how good Cream would have been if they stayed together for more than 3 years or however long they were together. They had some amazing tracks and definitely could have been right up there with Zep if they aren't already.

                                                                  Some of my favorite bands right now are Foo Fighters, Metallica, Velvet Revolver, Audioslave and Godsmack to name a few. I've seen Foo Fighters and Godsmack live twice and they were both fantastic shows. Godsmack I saw when they opened for Metallica in Phoenix and then Tucson the next night. Foo Fighters I saw once by themselves and then last year with Weezer which was another great band live too.
