Document Summary
Hard rock/metal: fans of led zepplin"s music understand that this is not only heavy/loud music, but that led zepplin drew on all kinds of different musical styles. One of the things that led zepplin is really important for, musically and visually speaking for the culture of hard rock is the template that this band laid down for really heavy sounding music. If you put some of the music from the late 1960s (late beatles, the doors, jimi. Hendrix, jefferson airplane) that was considered heavy music back in the late. 1960s, then you put on the first led zepplin record, those songs will be blown out of the water. So much of hard rock and metal music is really about power and how power gets expressed (power of a particular kind). They were creating a kind of music that was incredibly empowering, it was a way for them to create a different option, trajectory for their life.
