This is a strange poll. (i think)

How can I be free?
How can I get help? Am I really me? Am I someone else? |

Zep wasn't anything special. Metal (which Zep is often given credit for inventing) was an offshoot of hard-rock, which was really an offshoot of garage rock. Ultimately, I don't think Zep deserves the attention it gets. It wasn't revolutionary and let's face it, the music was sappy. They were 'made for radio' hits.
Plus they were total self-indulgent pompous arrogant jerks. Pink Floyd apologized when they alienated fans. Led Zep was proud of it. Pink Floyd all the way. Edited by DeepPhreeze - May 01 2006 at 19:33 |

Pink Floyd is head and shoulders above Zep.
I used to be a HUUUUUUGE Zep fan (when i first really got into music)
Looking at them now, Ive never heard a band that has such a huge difference between their great songs and bad songs, and nothing in between.
If I'm not listening to Zeps 20 best (and most popular/radioplayed songs).....Im not listening to Zep.
Pink Floyd by this
 much....The musicianship in both are great though(zep moreso in fact.) |

I voted for Pink Floyd. I used to love Zeppelin and I can remember biking up to the local, independent, record store to get each new release. But over the course of time, Floyd has stood up better for me. That early Zeppelin stuff off the first several albums though, just can't be beat and I think when it comes to the 1970s you picked the two major acts. cha-ching, cha-ching.

The Pink Floyd of course... Zeppelin are probably the masters of heavy rock,
but Jimmy Page is very overrated in my opinion. |

 You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks. |

Pink Floyd, EASILY. It's not like I don't like Led Zeppelin (I do), but Pink Floyd are much more interesting and they got me introduced to prog (along with many others), so I have to vote for them.

Led Zeppelin is the best "straight-forward" rock band, however I like my music to be a bit more complex. So PF gets my vote.

You cant compare a band totaly on musical talent. If we did that Asia would be one of the best bands on the planet. |

EDIT: I saw someone else already commented on what I was going to say.
FOCUS: I would say that overall, Zeppelin is better since they have had a greater influence on later bands over Floyd, and are generally well-received with most audiences. I am not a fan of Floyd at all, but that has nothing to do with my outlook. Edited by Quadrophenia |

Nah... I wont give my opinion in this, there's no point in comparison, they are both 2 awesome bands and very, VERY different from each other, I love them both.

I can't and won't choose between these two bands. They're equally incredible.
