It's an actual challenge to review an album like this one, a classic album made by one of those unforgettable bands, so I swear I'll do my best.

Led Zeppelin released this jewel in 1971 (November 8th to be precise). It's a marvelous album, every song featured here is just incredible, we have the memorable "Black Dog," the classic "Rock & Roll" (we can even hear this song in the Super Bowl specials), the aggressive "Misty Mountain Hop," the mystic "When The Levee Breaks," the catchy "Four Sticks" and well…"Stairway To Heaven."

I didn't see that there were responses to my post x) i got no problem with people liking zeppelin but i can't stand a band that (partly?) rips off an other band .... and i don't think having influence = ripping off at all that's it
i rated it 6 finally to be a bit more objective.... but i REALLY CAN'T STAND THIS BAND


No big deal. You were born almost a generation after this band broke up, so not sure what the big deal is with you yelling that you really can't stand this band. Move on - the world has.

Great album, most heaver, most metal album, as teenager Black Dog and Rock n Roll was my fav songs, more equal sound, more less same or close to same style, more away from blues roots, more 70's less 60's feeling , almost every song are great and hit, basically can be best of .. Black Dog, Rock n Roll great heavy riffs , calmer song The Battle Of Evermore, then follows song what I did not like as teenager(soft) but now adore, best lyrics from all LZ songs , yes Stairway to Heaven ... Going to Californian also great epic song, deep lyrics, then it was dream destination, now Cali,.. to much gangs and seems its shithole, anyway great song ... rest of songs are weeker, but 4 songs in the album what are super hits ... damn awesome. My best album and last one, since next one brings changes and bad changes

Everything is perfect on this. From the Black Dog fury to the Battle of Ervermore sweetness.

Favourite album of all time. However I'm not sure why it's even counted in the all time list, since it's definitely not a metal album.

Because the Top 200 list is not limited to any genre. It comprises everything that is featured on MS (studio albums with 200+ votes). If you want to have this album out of the top list you can customize your genre-specific top list under "Top albums".

Stairway to Heaven - the mother of all HM songs.....one song is enough to give full rating. All time favourite.
