I'm 12 years old and I know that Nirvana's drummer and foo fighters are not the same person because nirvana was a 90's band and foo fighters was a 2000's band duh adults are so dumb

Lori Maurer Buddy that’s a nothing statement. You could say that about any other band, because inherently a thing is going to sound like that thing. 1=1, 2=2. And Greta Van Fleet equals Led Zeppelin more often than not.
Think again! I and many others hear Rush, Deep Purple, Rainbow , Janis Joplin, Blue Oyster Cult,Uriah Heep.... Josh can even do a good Jim Morrison! Improve your classic rock library! Peace to you dude.
@@gretavanfleetarmy You actively admit to liking GVF more than LED ZEPPELIN Are you sure you belong here? Not this comment section, I mean... on Earth.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Greta Van Fleet. The experimentation is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of musical theories most of the jokes will go over a typical listener's head. There's also Josh's mythical outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterization - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Led Zeppelin music, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these music, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Greta Van Fleet truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the symphony in Josh's existential catchphrase "YEAAAA," which itself is a cryptic reference to Led Zeppelin I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Greta Van Fleet's genius unfolds itself on their earphones. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Greta Van Fleet tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
LET'S AGREE: If the content on fantano started to include the next chapter of thatistheplan-style videos, it would be very uncontroversial and well-received because the original outrage over it was entirely fabricated to begin with.
The only effect/pedal he used was a boost, if using a Marshall means youre stealing Led Zeppelin’s sound, then plugging into a twin reverb means you’re stealing SRV’s sound
0:41 Greta Van Fleet's new album sounds nothing like Led Zeppelin 2:04 Theneedledrop is an outdated name by today's music standards 2:56 Do you think you'll ever get to interview Death Grips? What would you sacrifice in order to do so? 5:01 Student/college radio is extremely underappreciated 6:32 K-Pop stans don't actually like the music; they like the artists themselves 8:07 Stop trying to say that Reggaetron and Latin music is mediocre to review just because you can't speak Spanish 9:13 Is there a meme you've wanted to review this year but can't because of the end of Thatistheplan? 9:44 People have no idea what Modest Mouse actually sounds like 11:48 1969 is the most iconic and significant year in popular music 12:18 Due to their mature content, one could argue that Wu-Tang Clan is in fact not for children
Brendan McCabe to be fair they have said they like Zeppelin.. and was influenced by them. Problem is they don’t bring it up first themselves.. where as a band like Dirty Honey brings up influences first. Aerosmith, GNR, Ac/Dc, Zeppelin. Influenced by all that. Honestly if they were younger they would be at the top of rock at the moment
@Fish People Unfortunately no, as I haven't done much digging into the genre. I just mentioned it because that's where a lot of Persona 5's music draws inspiration from.
Robert Plant has a far wider vocal range then the guy from GVF. He has a similar high note, that’s about it. The problem I have with them is that they not only try to sound like Zeppelin, but they also dress and have 70s hair styles...it seems WAY too forced.
the seventies throwback outfits they wear are imo one of the cringiest things about them ,,I remember someone saying it looks like theyre doing Led Zepp cosplay LOL (I think that was actually Fantano in his review of them lol)
Well considering they just love everything 70s rock, makes sense they sound and look like the 70s stereotypes, cause that's the band they would want to see. Both singers oversing far too much, both guitarists show off, both bassists hold down the band, both drummers do pretty standard beats unless there is an odd structure or time signature. The only big difference in songwriting is that, 1. They've only just started of course they're going to wear their influence on their sleeves. 2. They haven't gone into experimental or prog music yet. 3. Both 1st albums are simple, standard rock albums. Give them sometime, people would've said the same things about Led Zeppelin and Cream and The Late Beatles.
@@peterthirdmusic2231 that's a load of shit, because when the first led zeppelin album came out it was the late 60's, so at the time it wasn't a "standard hard rock album"... it was new and almost experimental in a way great van fleet hasn't even came close too. They're a bad cover band, if they really want to be like led zeppelin they should try making something original
Early Modest Mouse is a lot more akin to post-hardcore than their future stuff is to indie rock but, then again, I think thats true of most pioneering bands of indie rock in the early to mid 90s. Maybe you could point to Pavement or Yo La Tengo or maybe even Built to Spill as more typical indie rock than early Modest Mouse...
It's funny how in the early 90s and well into the 2000s, it was the less lyrical rappers/raunchy artists who had a bigger impact on music as a whole than their other universally respected contemporaries. Winning many federal cases that outlined freedom of expression in music as well as in music videos. There's an argument about them being more influential to the rap genre and the entire music artform as a whole than the traditional 90s rapppers we praise as pioneers today.
Great video anthony, thought it was kind of weird that you flashed the text "The Fuhrer was not a bad man" subliminally fourteen times in the 60 fps version of this video
Dude I had this saved in my watch later a while ago and sure enough, you had the same opinion about the Moth memes and the Johnny Johnny ones as I did. Thank you for teaching me how to have good tastes in memes, Anthony.
At the time of Modest Mouse's popularity height, they were the DE FACTO sound for indie bands. In the few years after Float On dropped, it seemed like every indie band had to have that sound, which contributed to indie being a genre term rather than an industry term.
yeah he doesn't have NEARLY the same power as Robert Plant.. I frequently see people saying GVT are still young they'll improve but Led Zepp were all in early 20s on their first album... I think Robert Plant was like 19 and he already sounded pretty fucking great
@@0oidiedinatimemachineo024 Jimmy Page was in his late 20s, around 28-ish, he was already an established session musician and was the guitarist for The Yardbirds before forming Led Zeppelin. The youngest was Robert Plant who was discovered when he was 18, the rest of the members were already in their mid 20s
PleasingSnail lmao did u watch Zeppelin’s live aid performance that was absolute trash don’t think they are that good (love both but both have bad moments yoink :)
@@quanicle101 Right. It's obvious that they're trying to sound like Zeppelin, and they do pull it off. It IS pathetic, but to say they don't sound like LZ is just insincere.
Abt Kpop real quick you can see on spotify the streams and theres popular groups with low stream and equally popular group with a lots of stream so thats on that, and you're right about GVF in my opinion but their fans won't accept it for now
My issue with GVF is that they sound and look like the rock n' roll of old, but they don't have the spirit of rock n' roll. The history of rock n' roll is a history of constant evolution (from chuck berry to elvis to the beatles to the stones to the who to hendrix... and so on), of rebelling against and moving on from the previous generations, being influenced by the past but then killing your idols through reinvention and making it your own. So that the music that you make doesn't sound like the 60s, 70s, 80s or 90s; it sounds like the rock n' roll of today and the future and just noise to the older generation. GVF is just nostalgia, retro novelty for that older generation.
Hey Anthony I really like you, hope you're doing well right now. The stuff you do and put out for us to watch or read is cooler than you probably know and I wanna say thank you for putting yourself out there! I know this isnt very eloquent and probably doesn't read very well but I've already typed this far
people like to overgeneralize every genre of music and thats fine but for ME personally, the reason i started listening to and enjoying BTS back in 2015 was because of the range and quality of their music. its fine that people see them as sort of just a dumb thing teenage girls like but for me personally there are few songs by them that lyrically have moved me and helped me survive through some very difficult times in life. for example, the song tomorrow is essentially about the repetitive and hopeless feelings that many young people experience in this modern world, and how even if things are hard now you should keep going . work hard to achieve your goals, and never forget where you started. maybe thats a little cheesy, but in a world where everyone seems to love cynicism, no artist ive listened to has come to represent hope in the future and in young people as much as BTS. ive been passively into kpop since 2011 and i can say without any doubt there are DEFINITELY some dumb, shallow people who are fans and well...isnt that they way it is for anything? there are certainly problems with the community and industry surrounding kpop but still that doesnt prevent me from enjoying the music that these artists have worked on. tl;dr just give something a REAL chance before knocking it and dont let the fans ruin something that might actually be quite good
Christian Klan kind of sad people would read a comment about not being prejudiced and then reply with prejudice. If you had taken a moment to look before commenting you’d see one of the members is first in the credits for writing and producing lol.
5:01 .....i think there was a study done, that your average adult builds their musical taste from the ages of 14 to 24... so it makes sense that student run college radio be the genesis of a young person's journey into different, avant-garde, non-pop related new music. I know it was for me. My favorite band of all time was TOO introduced to me in college.... Jane Doe had just come out, and naturally as a fan of Poison the Well, Glassjaw, Hopesfall and Thursday - a buddy of mine told me to "download" it and give it a shot (yes, download from kazaa like the rest of the savages in 2001). I heard it and wasn't quite blown away at first, but the more I kept returning to it, the more I kept hearing Concubine as that first track... so naturally, the more I got deeper and deeper. long story short, I became obsessed with them (hence... my profile pic). So if you're at that age, explore everything!! Whether it's college radio, mainstream pop radio or just listening to a great variety of artists you hear about through friends or social media, that's how taste is built.
Oh god I just realized Modest Mouse and Arcade Fire are labelled in the same genre and if I hadn't given up using genres as good labels I'd have issues reconciling that.
This is GVF's first Full Length LP and the Hate that it's getting is unreal . And it's coming Primarily from people who were Not even born when Zep was a Touring Band . It's so bad that a friend of mine who plays nothing but Rap & Alternative , hates GVF for sounding like Zep which he already hates to begin with . Truly weird . These guys are only in their early 20s . They will grow into their own over time . And as someone who did see Led Zep twice . I like em .
Yeah I agree let's be grateful there's a young band out there that makes catchy rock songs, there's nearly none out there currently. I even found the LP sounds more unique than their EPs. Let's give them a chance.
on a serious note, i thought what you said about the modest mouse/new wave stuff was cool because we're witnessing it right now live before our eyes with "sound cloud rap" and "mumble rap" to a larger degree
Let me tell you the future for Greta van fleet.. 3 teenage brothers attain worldwide success, without really paying dues.. They're gonna tear each other apart with ego. They won't be talking to eachother, as one begins to think he's "the genius" of the group. First, it will be separate limos and backstage areas. Then, the others will quit, and one left will tour the world with a backup band of session players. He will continue calling himself " Greta van fleet" because you can't give up the brand name and dollars..
Dig the new glasses and the bass harmonics At the very least the gvf guitar sounds a lot like Led Zeppelin. His tone is fucking exactly jimmy Paige's, and a lot of his playing styles are very similar. One of their first hits, I think highway song, had a very Led Zeppelin bluesy riff, and during the pre chorus had some kind of Celtic folk sounding modal guitar line which was very jimmy Paige.
yeah i recognized it immediately. i cant stand zeppelin mostly because of the vocals and guitar work, and the greta boys are an even worse version of that. i guess their drummer and bassist suck in a different way, considering theyre not memorable at all, and at least zeppelin has a pretty good drummer.
Robert Plant himself said in an interview "that kid remembers me of someone I know very well" so yes they quite sound like Led Zeppelin, in the bad way but they do sound like Led Zeppelin
Even is Anthony were to actually interview Death Grips it’d be 95% Zach answering questions in full detail 3% Ride talking about how much he hates the world 2% Andy saying you can play the music loud
Let’s make it clear they may sound like zeppelin but they do not copy them and if they do sound like led why is that bad, led is amazing and so is Greta
a needle drop is a recording from a vinyl record to another format such as digital/tape/cd that is traded among fans because the formats (mentioned) have not been released officially.
Where did you get the background photo that you used for the college radio station bit? Do you know that the microphone was positioned so that it is "aimed" at the DJ's crotch? Maybe that why college student dj voices sound so distant...
I say this as a GVF fan who disagrees with much of Fantanos take on them: they absolutely sound like Zep. They were literally a Zep cover band before they hit it big, and their sound hasn’t changed a ton since then. They sound like Led Zeppelin.
