I mean seriously, they were like crazy popular, easily the most popular band of the '90s. Who else here thinks that they could be considered the Led Zeppelin of the '90s?

I think just mentioning Pearl Jam in the same sentence as Led Zeppelin is giving Pearl Jam too much credit...

Actually, they were. You see, Led Zep is the 6th best selling musical artists of all time, and Elton John is #5, both of them were around in the '70s, and they were the only '70s bands in the top 6 best selling musical artists list. So technically, Led Zep is the 2nd most popular band of the '70s.

Close, but no. Nirvana sold about 50 million albums. Pearl Jam sold about 60 million.

I'd say Nine Inch Nails would be the Led Zeppelin of 90's.

The Maynard is a God comment bugs the hell out of me. But you could make argument that sideskull made. I wouldn't be laughing Kevlar as Tool's cover of No Quarter is better than Zeppelin's original.

Ok,I listened to it. Not far better. I love Tool, but their cover for No quarter...... no. The guitar riffs and drums sound very good, but the vocals ruin it. But why are we comparing? Why cant you just accept that they are both great bands that make artful music? All music is art, after all.

Neither my opinion or your opinion is right. There are two different versions of one song. Usually people compare things such as different versions no matter what they are (cars, music, games, etc). Furthermore, when did i not say that both bands make great music? Please don't accuse of me that. I said you "could" make the argument that someone made. Key word is could. I enjoy both bands, Tool more than Zeppelin. I respect many things about both bands but both have their issues.
