"People ignore good music, because it needs a little more brainpower" this is pretty much the best statement I`ve ever heard
Sounds like a cringy thing that a neckbeard would say.
@@alexk3352 It does honestly lol
And EFFORT ! It doesn't take much to hold a remote mic, Learning to play a guitar, drums, & keyboard does ! GVF has outclassed the crap that passes for mainstream "music" today !
it also takes a little more brainpower to actually have an original sound.
Most people are musical pea brains.
hey am i the only one that wanna see an entire video of josh playing the piano?
I'd love to hear the full song 💖
Lovely melody both in the keys and his vocals. I hope we hear a full finished rendition..i cant be obsessed with a 10 second snippet for the rest of me life 😂
And in a concert
Yes you are.
Why does Sam play keys if Josh can? Then he could play bass full time
I remember before this band got big people would complain that modern rock music didn't sound like classic rock, now this band comes out and people are complaining that they are unoriginal. I mean, which side are you gonna take? These guys are brilliant at what they do.
They really sre brilliant and keep improving.
People don't make any sense..
Most of the time.....when it's hot, they wish it was cold.....when cold, they want it hot......GO FIGURE!!! AND WITH MUSIC, SAME THOUGHT PROCESS....now, I think GVF is super talented....keep rocking guys
I'm into electric / trance type music and never thought I'd like rock but GVT got me into it for sure.
0:58 “When the curtain falls” and we had no clue
Hate when people do this. Just put the line here and not a fucking track time!!
MrCanadaBeers Next time i want to do this i’ll think about you. You poor thing
Haha
MrCanadaBeers There is no line you dumbass lmao
This was before Anthem album!! Wow.
“Good music takes a little bit more brain power so you can listen to it” this is exactly a sentence i was looking for
thats bullshit lol music is music and you can listen to it with however much brainpower you want to
And that was the sentence i was looking for
Ben Reese idk if people can see dislikes but Incase u can’t I disliked ur useless comment
You’re dumb as shit if you think you need to be smart to enjoy certain music
I personally thought it was a bit of a pretentious comment to make; to assert that rock music is superior, but unappreciated because it requires a certain amount of brain power that the average consumer is too lazy to tap into. The epitome of "I grew up in the wrong generation". Music is supposed to change over time. Blues/Rock guitar oriented music isn't as big as it used to be and that's not a bad thing at all. It also doesn't mean that people have stopped using their brains.
As an "old guy" (52), let me say a couple of things. I've been playing the drums since 1975, and started listening to the likes of the Beatles at around the age of 5. GVF seems to be the real deal. Will they pan out? Hard to say, at this point. That's their "journey", i.e. for them (and only them) to figure out.
Also, they seem to have a strong sense of themselves as musicians. I believe one of the reasons is that they seem to really be in touch with, and appreciate those who came before them. They know about Howlin' Wolf and Albert King. In other words, they seem to have built a strong foundation of music, and that kind of thing usually adds tremendous value to a band.
My two cents.
Christopher mars - Well spent, those two cents. 😊
Yes absolutely agree with you. I'm 58, have seen a good amount of rock concerts, the greats from the 70's. I see greatness in these kids. They have a keen sense of self, seem to know where their influences come from. Plus they have real talent. Rock on Greta Van Fleet 😉
Totes Awesome Words!
Christopher mars I’m 50. Haven’t given two cents about seeing anyone in concert since I was was younger. Just sprang for GVF tix and will drive almost four hours to see them. Couldn’t be more stoked! I sure hope they’re opening the gates to more great rock.
Im 5120 years old and I definitely agree!
"Rock n roll is dead"
*kids play real rock n roll*
"They're copying Led zeppelin shame on them"
lmao hater spotted, tbh kids these days cant play like zeppelin so. . . Its just amazing that GVF can even sound abit like LZ
@@twinpumpkin
Business*
Twin Pumpkin I want to listen to new bands that are doing cool stuff but can’t find any. Any suggestions?
@@twinpumpkin Minus the Bear is the most underappreciated band in the world. I love GVF but there is some great music being made that the masses dont know about.
Twin Pumpkin thnx for the suggestion. Just listened to bleeding in the blur and i think i like the band.
At first I was skeptical about this band. But then I heard Age Of Man and realised that this band has the potential to write some truely epic original music.
And now Age of Machine! Awesome song
Wildly and phenomenally talented. -Saw them live recently, don't knock what you haven't experienced first hand. These guys are in their element and bring something very rich and genuine to the industry. I'm happy to see them living their best life.
Foot Lettuce We simply don't see eye to eye on this one then. I believe that I share the opinion of the majority however. If you have a chance -see them live. You may change your mind.
I'm a diehard classic rocker and only this week learned who GVF was...and from what I've seen, these guys are OK and could be around a good while.
Don't be a hater.
Thank you. The voice of reason has arrived!
Veronica Renaker i could not agree more just ordered some of their merch happy to support a band with pure talent and i stress pure if you love the kind of music that is real music you will know why i stressed the word pure i think as Elton john said about them music has come alive and is finally awake after a very long sleep lol
I remember just a few months ago, not being impressed with rock music as a genre in the future. I have three boys ages 15, 13, and 12. Two are in band at school, and all three are into rock and metal. They grew up listening to classic rock, and metal in my car. And it was to my 12 y/o that a few months back saying that I was hoping some of today's bands help bring back old school R&R. And then a month ago, I saw the vids for Safari Song, and Highway tune. I swear, I jumped out of my chair, and yelled to my 12 y/o, to come downstairs quick. Played these songs, bought the album, and now huge fans! It's a bit weird being 56 y/o and so into these guys. But, I don't give a damn!! They are so much of what we need in music!! I am so frickin happy! I know...this band is the beginning. BUT....the fact that they are here, will have kids coming up in school now...especially my kids, wanting to play like these young cats! Thanks, Gretta Van Fleet!!
"we can't ever let that get lost" this my friends is why I love these guys! Keep doing what your doing great van fleet! You guys are awesome!
JKVK33 hmmmmm who does Greta van fleet sound like..... southern power chord rock sprinkled with hints of zeppelin and it took the world by storm bc they are talented and the worlds to used to Kanye’s and billies
jared agreed
This is the first time I’ve seen Josh playing the piano and singing on his own. That’s very awesome. He should do more of that. I love watching all of them though. Super cool dudes!
I just want to sit in a room with these guys and talk about how much pop sucks.
That's what I want for my birthday.
same! I love these guys so much
Preach that 🙌
not necessarily why pop is bad, just what pop is missing
That's sad
They probably going to punch you in the face if you say that. As musicians they know music is just not one type of genre only.
I completely agree 2:09
It's true,doesn't it scare you that the songs that are most popular are mindless?
TheGhjgjgjgjgjg like Gucci gang
Dude is straight preaching
TheSiskoKid58 TheSiskoKid58 If by sounding pretentious then yes he's definitely preaching. Music doesn't require much brain power to understand and "good music" is subjective...
I disagree, the people are somewhat involved but the true killers of good music are the music industries, they realized that great artists cannot be controlled and can have a really big power on people so they started gradually lowering music level until this point where they literally sell you trash as greatness, they know its shit but they also know you will buy it because most people don't care about music as in how complex it is, they just care about how this makes them feel and people who don't understand music can feel almost anything.
I've dipped my toe in when listening to Rock. Since finding these guys when someone was taking the piss out of them on tiktok a month or so ago. I have now bought all of their albums. I havent enjoyed music so much in years. I thank their parents 😊
Whatever Josh is singing at 1:50 I NEED IT
Saruman The White
Me also
did you find it??
Alondra Bluee sadly no. I think, I HOPE that it’s something that they’re recording for their album
Nick Aquino
He always says his insturment is his voice, I don't know it sounds like it might be the piano also!
"It was september, the days.. sitting by the phone"? Thats all I can hear. No known lyrics match via Google. I hope it's a new one-
Lets talk about everything...
Except Zeppelin
In/Vertigo Canada 100%!!! I wish they would just be honest. It’s obvious to everyone including Robert Plant. I love how he dealt with that... he’s the best!
They talk about Led Zeppelin when asked, but why should they talk about it any more than that. They've already got their detractors who say they're just Led Zeppelin wannabes (I'm not one of those, love these guys). Isn't a good sign if they try to get out of Zeppelin's shadow? You don't do that by talking about Zeppelin. You do that by moving forward and just being yourself.
Clay Vernon well, it’s that I think they have been probably less than honest about it. Said they didn’t know Zep till High School. Saying they were influenced from nearly everyone and everything else it seems. Robert Plant knows it’s bs lol. I think it best to say you know Led Zeps been a massive influence, and who else is better?!?! And then, move your sound away from that central influence. It’s common with young bands to to heavily emulate, but it’s not wrong and I don’t think they are a “knock off” they are heavily HEAVILY influenced. Obvious. One thing that can be done on a non musical angle is the stage performance. Take in other qualities to again move away a bit of Zep (especially Robert Plant). But again, they are kids, they can grow into more of their own thing.
Like how vampires can't see themselves in mirrors these guys can't see led zeppelin. It's bad enough that they are a clone band, but to not even mention zep is just laughable.
IMPOSSIBRUUUUUUU!!!!
Thanks GVF for picking up guitars instead of laptops and making music in the name of rock and roll. Zeppelin sounding or not I’m all in for whatever’s next.
Jackson Roemers Uh you do know there's a lot of bands that play instruments right?
LOUD Planet Man rock is not dead. There have been some great modern bands, they are just not well known
A good play to look for them is Band Camp,great place to look for to some unknown bands
LOUD Planet Look man please don’t defend rap against rock. I’m FULLY aware that Rap has the industry in the palm of their hands (even if I disagree with it). I will say this, I’m guessing your an 18-25 year old male, so you grow up in the 2000s and 2010s listening to rap because that’s what the industry produced, therefore you’ll be listening to rap for the rest of your life because it defined your age group. I’m 19 I was just born listening to rock that’s how it was, so I defend the genre because I have claimed it as my own just as you have claimed rap. Guess what though bro, one day rap is going to die, just as you think Rock has and you will be defending the dead body of rap when some artist breaks through the chains of the industry trying to revive it. This is how it is. So don’t shit on rock all the time just be happy that the music you enjoy is popular. And we’ll keep listening to the few guys that still play rock.
Ps: Nirvana brought back rock in the 90s so revivals are not impossible.
Jackson Roemers Uh I don't think rap will die off too. It's been around since the 80s like rock and metal. Now what I do hope is the mumble rap crap will die off so the good rap music can be more well known instead it being underground like the good rock music
Lightning6475 I like you bro you’re reasonable. However, all music kind of dies off, or not dies but changes and evolves. Hard rock these days have taken the form of alternative you have bands like Vampire Weekend morphing genres together like world and reggae, Imagine Dragons who have electronic influences but still rock at its core. In this age where the internet is responsible for a lot of artists success, I guess your right, no music will die, there will always be people mixing genres together because home recording is just so good these days.
They are amazingly talented. Sam especially; he plays several instruments very well. That’s an incredible skill.
Just discovered this band yesterday and been listening non-stop. I have not come across a song I didn't like which is rare for me . These guys are great
I don't like a lot of today's pop music and have always struggled to find a current band that plays good music and is also my age. GVF has given me an experience that I've been missing for so long and my appreciation for them can't even be put into words. I'm so excited to hear their first full-length album and what other sonic creations they make in the future. #rocknrollwillneverdie
Kendall Palmatier you gotta try listening to Rival Sons. You might like them.
If you can be a little open-minded, check out Billy Strings. He's heavily influenced by Bluegrass, but the dude is definitely rock n' roll. Super talented. I've been going through that same struggle of finding artists my age, and he's only 25, I think.
Check out the band 'Clutch'!
I'm 11 years old and even though I grew up with modern music, I hate it. I recently discovered Led Zeppelin and they opened my mind to something great. I always get sad knowing their music won't be around in the future. But Greta Van Fleet, a new band, is bringing back the music that is the favorite of many people. It turns out that Led Zeppelin won't be gone after all.
Spotify helped me find quite a lot of modern rock, alternative, rock'n'roll bands like greta van fleet, royal blood, airbourne, badflower, rival sons, grandson, cage the elephant, band of skulls, highly suspect, temperance movement etc etc etc (I could name them endlessly). There are quite many amazing bands out there, you just need to take some effort to find them since they're not all widely known bands. But I agree on the topic of today's popular music, I noticed that a lot of people are getting into genres of pop, r'n'b, rap, which I'm personally not interested in. If I was asked to recognize any of the popular songs of today, I'd probably not know any of them
I would absolutely love to see a collaboration between GvF and Hozier, especially after hearing Sam mention him. The blues and folk influence that both artists use -- I can only imagine the insane instrumentals and vocals that would come from that collab.
I love these guys to bits. Sure, some of their songs sound a lot like Zeppelin, but that's mostly because A) Zeppelin brought upon us the golden age of rock n' roll, which is basically the ideal style to draw inspiration from, and B) Josh sounds a lot like Robert Plant, but I don't perceive it as an imitation; especially if you listen to him talk, you can kinda figure that the Plantish sound is indeed just how he gets the most power out of his voice. Nevertheless, if you listen to GvF's full album and their live performances, you can also discern a very distinctive and unique tone in his voice that clearly sets Josh apart from Plant.
So the lesson is listen deeper before comparing them to led zeppelin and rock on.
excelent comment. ..I agreed
Totally. I agree not a 100% on what you said but mostly on what you said.
This is a thing I perceived after a time listening to Greta, if u listen to them for first time and you have been listening to Zepp you gonna get that Robert's vibe, but if you keep listening to them and you are a REAL fan of Led Zeppelin you gotta know that there's a REAL difference between Robert and Josh.
Have to disagree, even his on stage mannerisms echo Plant. I dont know if its imitation, or whatever. - however good too hear some good music regardless of who they sound like because there's nothing new under the sun
I will keep replaying 1:50 this for the next 5 years, I needdd to know this song!!!
They will! Rock is coming back, it is just about time!
Love GVF. You should also check out the band Twisted Illusion. They are bringing back the classic rock sound of Rush, Queen, among others. check out their song "No Compromise."
Rock never left. The mega corporate radio whores and music companies just went for empty garbage and pleasing the masses of empty robot morons. The good new bands are all DIY, recording at home, and playing bars.
Rock never left. These guys just sound exactly like Zeppelin and I don't think many other bands are this bold to 100% ripoff someone's sound. I like these guys but I still admit and accept who and what they're doing.
One can only pray rock comes back it’s been shit for like 15 years, not since The White Stripes, Interpol, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Strokes.
konradnoises disagree rock should never be main stream again
These kids are AMAZING & THE REAL DEAL - their Dad is an amazing harmonica player in a blues band so there ya go!!
I LOVE how these guys are respectful and acknowledge past musicians! Heard Sam talking about how much he loves John Denver in another video. Man, these guys are too cool!!
I believe in you guys.
You are very stupid
Sorry you don't believe in things mate
I believe they really have something here
@@Syfoll not as stupid as you
@@noname.___ fuck off boomer
Dude people go hard on them but there just kids! Let them be like there Idols and grow from them to build there own style
Noodle Face by the time plant was their age zeppelin had 3 albums out.
The lyrics were sophomoric either.
Jimmy Page was 24 on LZ first album. it doesn't really matter man. When people get off those Led Zeppelin comparisons they'll actually start to hear this band for what they are, and honestly today they're a warm welcome.
CoolBuzzTastyWaves robert plant was 22 in 1970. When the band released its third albumn.
CoolBuzzTastyWaves also kind of hard to not do zeppelin comparisons when the singer forces a range to try and sound like plant, copies his stage dress and goes as far to copy all of his stage mannerisms.
If they want comparisons to stop they need to stop trying to be another band.
Plant didn't invent that style of singing dude. Steve Marriot did it first and was Roberts big influence. In the world of blues everything is recycled and shared.
They’re getting more popular! Proud! 😭❤️
1:16 Danny: basically
Everyone: BaSIcaLLy
BASSically. They were making a pun ;)
I am 60 years old and these guys make me feel 20 again :) And that guys is a compliment ;)!!! Keep on rocking!!!
I’m working on a rock and roll record right now that I was honestly a little worried about stylistically. But seeing these guys take over the world excites me and gives me the confidence to move forward. It’s coming back around, I promise you
Boy, this sure makes me wanna go buy an all new Jeep Wrangler
Only because Jeep is the only new car company that still makes cars that looks like a car; simply because a Jeep is only a box. But they're starting to even mess that up! lol
MrHamsangwich LoL
He's saying they make car commercial music
Best comment 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Atari-Dude 1 lol says the one guy who has never owned a jeep. Hahaha I own a Big Bear Jeep Wrangler 2017 BRAND NEW bought last year and I get heads turning all the time. Fuel efficient with terrain wheels, its fucken bad ass. When you have people who pull up in luxury trucks and they look over you know your shit is BAD ASS! So your garbage spill on jeep is totally stupid.
1:50 I hope that's on their next album.
Same
I am 75 seen all the great groups from the 60s…..I consider GVF to be one of the most exciting new bands, they would hold their own amongst the best.
I can’t decide if I think these guys will push through the “Zeppelin copycat” critiques and go on to find their own sound (kinda like what happened to bands like Rush, Soundgarden, etc being compared to other bands at first) or if they will be a phase and eventually disappear (like Wolfmother).
What does everyone think?
Theres only one thing, they're not Led Zeppelin. They never will be and they don't want to be. They're Greta Van Fleet and their story is unique to them. I think they will shock the music world or dare i say, continue to shock the music world.
They are fine. This is just the beginning. Why does everyone have to hate great rock. We have been begging for a great band.
There hasn't been great rock in the forefront for nearly 30 years. Metal is stale and Alt rock is dry. Time to shake things up a bit.
they suck ...Led Zeppelin rules ...there are no questions...
HOLY SHIT hahahahahahahah just listened to your song on your page Mosi and its fucking TERRIBLE haha loving this
The band we all want to be in.
The band we as musicians would still love to be in.
So happy someone is bringing it back
Love how they view rock; that it stopped evolving and went silent. And now they seek to go back to where elders left it to grasp the torch and move it forward.
Go, gents, go.
you cant stop the train of evolution, baby. theyre just going back to old styles and techniques
ditto to ben, it evolved into the ramones, the strokes, the white stripes...it fractured into different subdivisions. it was never silent. I'm not putting gvf down, but you have admit (to use your analogy) that they're grasping a torch that's already been grasped, and instead of making use of the innovations made to the genre since the 70s they've just decided to start at the beginning. again, not totally a put down, but there is a huge difference between their vibe in the highway tune music video (there was a little punk there, a little beastie boys even maybe?) and in when the curtain falls and their newest album when they decided to just completely fall back in time to the 60s
@@EliteWhiteNinja You can when you remove instruments.
@@spotsoftea That's not rock, though. It's Prog. It's like saying Rock evolved from the Beatles into Oasis. Zep is on an entirely different branch.
These guys are so wise at such a young age when it comes to preserving rock and roll music. Never forget!
I like to see these guys talk in harmony with one another. They seem like they are really in tune with eachother! That's what it takes. If they keep that, they will make mind blowing music forever!
Honestly cant understand all the Claims like they sound too much like Led Zeppelin. Lol only 2 Songs are in led Zep style. The others are completly different. Stop complaining and enjoy some fine ass Rock'n Roll !
Halloween Jack95 Other way around, they have at least 2 songs that have their own sounds, the rest just sounds like Zeppelin
i agree with you and what riffs are they stealing people need to specify, because im not hearing it, only the organ in flower power maybe.
Revin Magee Nobody is stating they stole riffs, but the way they play and how they sound really just sounds like Zeppelin
And that's fine, every band has their influenced. But they really need to take their Zeppelin influence and use it to create their own sound, not bring back one that's already been use.
Their biggest hit is a ripoff of Zep's The Rover
I agree 100%, but nobody else wants to see it. After listening to the album a bunch of times, the only two songs that sound like lz are safari song and highway tune, the rest of em just don’t.
Discovering these guys is the best thing that's happened since Covid. 💜🎶
Today is the first time I discovered this band and I love them already. Great Band !
Listen to all their songs! Do it! Age of Man is incredible!
At least they have a sense of humor.
A new generation of good music finally!
I've been waiting since the 90s.
There's always good music out there
True, but I want it to be mainstream again.
Gencaps Noises There have ALWAYS been great music, you just gotta look for it
if you quit whining and actually started looking for good music youd find that there is plenty of good music from the 2000s and 2010s. but why do that when you can bitch about it on the internet?
I would sell my soul for josh to finish the entire song at 1:50
So I Have To Say As A Young Girl That Came From The Uk To America One Of The First American Bands I Was Turned On To Was Grand Funk Railroad First Song I Heard Was Sins A Good Mans Brother Next Into The Sun Epic!!! Ive Seen Zeppelin And Stones AND Sabbath Live Seeing Grand Funk Was Amazing! So Many Years Later I Hear These Amazing Young Men ! Grand Funk From Flint Michigan Greta Van Fleet From Frankmuth ! And Ive Another Favorite Band 😍
They are just outside of Flint. Michigan Home of grand funk Michigan has the best musicians in the World just up the road from there Stevie Wonder from Saginaw, Michigan. And of course, motown and all the other rock artists around.
Bob Seger.
Kid rock Alice Cooper.
I’m 100% convinced that people these days in a social media world enjoy being miserable more than enjoying things, and those who hate on these dudes are the perfect example. Yes we have heard similar music, but there is literally nothing innovative left to do with guitar driven rock music. Let them write and play the songs they enjoy and if you don’t enjoy please just close the RUclips app, why waste your time
fenderfreak215 well you thinking that there's nothing innovative left to do is even more sad.
Theres really not that much... I mean the real innovation would come from people just writing good songs with guitars, and that innovation enough. I think striving to be so completely different is good and bad. I mean rock has been pushed(in many cases) to an unbearable place of either Hardcore Metal or Shitty Indie rock, and i don't think that should be the only choices out there. Theres others that have done exactly what these guys are doing, they're all over history.
Check out Highly Suspect
fenderfreak215....Very well stated. I gree with you 100%. I may be so bold (arogant) to say that with my 50 years behind the guitar I actaully do know more about music than most of the haters "pretending" to have more than an opinion. (Opinions are welcome and respected but they are just "opinions". ) If these guys are average then I must REALLY suck...They are FAR beyond average in their musical abilities and stage presence! (IMO)
Exactly! They want to bitch about whatever people do like and can't enjoy other peoples pleasure.
I would love to see these guys in person, the energy they have plus talent is awesome, and to be able to crank their music up in the car or anything makes the day so much better. fellas you have my thumbs up to keep rock n roll alive :)
Thank you. I want these guys to get recognition because I want the rock n roll I grew up with to come back again. These guys are so talented
These kids are rocking out PURE music. Pure rock! No samples, mixing nonsense. Good ole fashion Rock-N-Roll. How can anyone knock them. And the best part for me personally is my 17 year old son turned me onto them. After all the years of me teaching him about great bands & music (all genres’) now he’s turned me into a really great rock band. I only hope they’re not a flash in the pan & will be gone after this album. Best of luck guys. 🤘🏽
Did it ever occur to anyone that these guys have the same influences as the guys from Zeppelin? Yeah they sound similar but Led ripped off a lot of blues classics themsleves aswell. These guys arent a gimmic, they really know how to rock hard, they're only gonna get better from here on.
Emilio Idiot No, Zeppelin had real influences. These guys just took Zeppelin's sound. Zeppelin never ripped off music. Only idiots think they did.
+ Emilio Idiot, Agreed. Every rock band or singer has been influenced or stole something from another musician. That's how the music business works. At least they are playing their own instruments and doing their own vocals instead of singing to a drum, bass, guitar track that has already been put down and then sung over with autotune like all of today's pop music. Lets see where these boys go before passing judgement to quick.
Apollo Alexandre "Zeppelin never ripped of music", lol are you out of your mind? There's a whole wikipedia article for songs adapted by led zeppelin^^ They copied A LOT but knew how to make something unique out of it that fits their style and sells. Made good music for sure!
I love Zeppelin as much as anyone else but to say they never ripped anyone off is delusional. Robert Plant sang just like Steve Marriott from the Small Faces, especially in the early days. Listen to this - ruclips.net/video/tp0jZ4BGuDw/видео.html
Lightnings Do you really think you're gonna tell me anything new about Led Zeppelin and their music? Yes, there is an article, containing 20 songs, and 18 of them have no business being there, because they were traditionals, or correctly credited covers, or bear some minor resemblance to another song. And the two that should be there were just blues influnced, to the degree that they used expressions from the blues, while the music was entirely original. Maybe you should know what you're talking about, before you speak.
What wonderful boys!!! What a band! What a perspective!! Thanking God everyday for their lives and their talent!!!
They will be the biggest band of modern times. These guys have it sealed no question. Wish I could get tickets, but they sell out in seconds. I'm 58 for gods sake & I love them. The REVOLUTION is here!!!! Thankyou GVF. Just stay humble and stay true to your art.
I love your style: Keep that '60's-'70's janure going please. Also, please keep the Rock Star style of dress of the day. I love "The Who" look, especially of the lead singer. Roger Daltrey style.
So f'ing cool. PLEASE keep it Rock & Roll real.
YOU ROCK
1:50 melts my heart I need him to sing that full somg
what is the name of the song?😫
What song is it I NEED to know
Why was everyone freaking out over beyonce at coachella when Greta Van Fleet had kickass performance
Matthew Peacock we shouldn’t insult someone to compliment someone else.
Because they are brainwashed!
GVF appear to b free thinkers!
Beyoncé admits another soul or person comes out of her when she performs; even has a name for this alter identity! So she sold her soul for her fame and glory or she is a complete whack job! U can pick one or both!
And side comment to ur antagonist “we shouldn’t tear one down to raise another”
Uhm yeah they obviously have NOT listened to the words she utters (@ the freakin Super Bowl) Total Black Panthered supporting the BLM when ALL lives matter, especially the cops that put their lives on the line everyday & wait I m not done,,,When she can uttter the words about killin all the white alligators no doubt meaning all white people, she needs to go perform at a Walmart parking lot cuz she sure speaks Walmart! I don’t condone any racist rifts but Damn U r not too bright cause if u like those type of lyrics, U r part of The Problem not the Solution!
In the immortal words of Elvis Costello:
“What’s so wrong with peace, love, & understanding.”
Dude someone explain to me this band is such a big deal does no one like zeppelin ?
MrEdwardBloom lol he didn’t put Beyoncé down at all... he asked why all the people attending Coachella were only going crazy over B when a great bad like this was there... it’s more of a knock at the culture and not B
@@roknrobn314 seriously? its 2019 dude, leave the stupid theories about the devil in the past where they belong
Adam Sandler must be so proud of his son.
Lol !!!!! I was totally thinking the same thing!
1:50 Beautiful!!
4 very smart kids who know their past influences from a to. Z
as an Indian I'm really proud that Josh wears a lot of bohemian Indian style outfits
Same
Name your channel, man - As a non-Indian who lived in India and loves the style, I do, too. In one vid, he wears a modified shalwar kameez. The shalwar is traditional, but the kameez is shortened with minimal bagginess. It still looked way cool.
🇮🇳👍
Got a lot of respect for these guys. They’re bringing Rock and Roll back to where it should be. I’m impressed with Greta Van Fleet. Rock on, dudes. Best of luck to all four of you. And 3/4 of them are brothers, no less!!!!!!!
The way they explain rock n roll and bringing it back.... this is why I love them. Thank you GVF for making music that’s new, that I enjoy to the core. You guys rock, literally.
“We can’t ever get that lost…”
Heck yeah, keep those classic rock influences and your own style going. Well done!
Man, I love this band. Hopefully they make it!
D o you think they didnt make it yet?
they are selling out shows all over the world and touring with big name bands so yeah I think they made it.
They easily made it. If you got at least 1 million scrobbles on Spotify for plenty of your songs that's a sign that you've made it.
coachella didn't do it for ya?
I just love the fact they all are from frankenmuth, mi. 15 minutes from where I live.
Josh plays piano?! I had no idea. These guys are full of pleasant surprises. I look forward to more of their art to be shared with us oh, if we are so blessed. Love love love them!
He also plays the drums🥰
@@kiera5870 super cool dude, right?
I was always scared that rock would die, until a week ago when my friend showed me a song by them! Plus, I didn't wanna do anything with music and just keep it a hobby, but thanks to these guys, my hope is back! Who knows maybe someone will listen to my stuff if I'll make em
The fact that they referenced Hozier who I’ve listened to way longer than them is incredible!!! He was also so right in his point!!!
These kids have opened the door to FINALLY bring rock n roll back. Hat off to these fellow Michiganders!!!!✌❤
Best rock band in years. Rock on boys.
David Cammilleri King Gizzard is a lot better
Just Some Asian Dude YIKES
Led zeppelin rip off
Just listen to Led Zeppelin
they suck
It takes guts to make this kind of music in today's market and they are getting bigger cuz they are talented, young, raw and we'll versed in old school rock and roll and blues. I've also heard them in other interviews give credit to Led Zeppelin and saying how big of fans they are. When asked about sounding like Zeppelin Josh jokingly said ya, we wish. They say they take influence from the blues and folk artists that Led Zeppelin took influence from. All music imitates things that come before it. Much of what Zeppelin did was copied and criticized, they just did it so damn well they made it their own and God bless them for it . GVF are imitating something that was around 30 years before they were born. Making Original songs that some of which even Robert Plant would have been happy to perform, he said this in an interview 3 weeks ago. "They are so young and talented, they are Zeppelin 1"." Which is quite special you know". He thinks they are talented amazingly so for how young they are.. Robert Plant doesn't give out praise often. Maybe you guys should stop hating and start listening to new good music again and support something that might actually be awesome and help true Rock and Roll come back. Also they are unbelievably flawless live, they sound like the album with more energy and power behind the sound. This is why many old-school Rockers are praising them such as Elton John and Axle Rose. They aren't over produced and created in a studio. Nobody can just sound like this, as if sounding like this is easy to do, they are something special.
As an old man now, I do love this band.
They're great and I wish long live to Greta Van Fleet! Greetings from Brazil, you rock guys!!
So glad we have someone to bring rock back and really care about it!
If anyone Is wondering the song Josh is playing, it's called (it was) September by Superior Elavation. It's quite different from what Josh is doing here.
GVF is coming into their own. I think every Rock band/singer began by being influenced by past Rock music, it's inevitable. People who are carping on the Zeppelin similarities, need to cut GVF some slack. They are reviving Rock&Roll. The more they write and play their own songs, the more they will evolve into their own unique style. Cut them a break, they re very young yet.
I saw them last Sunday, Sept 29, 2019 at San Diego State, and it was a thrilling experience-they are extremely talented!!!! Can't wait to see them nature, and earn their place in Rock history.
I love their interviews- they're so goddamn weird.
Kyle Mikesell What?? No, they're not weird. You're a boring basic person.
Watch a Tyler the Creator interview. These guys aren't weird at all
Well more in that 1970s rock "I really don't give a fuck what you think" weird. Ever see an interview with John Bonham?
Want to know why you think they are weird? They are REAL and you are used to seeing fake people shoved in your face.
Dude there are so many real genuine musicians in the indie scene, stop acting like these guys are one of a kind and sent from heaven you moron
My favorite band, Greta Van Fleet! I think word is getting around about their greatness.
Javon Funchess They suck. Mediocre musicians with no originality.
Apollo Alexandre
I disagree.
Talented copycats!
I can't fathom how someone would have this as their favorite band as opposed to Zeppelin.
My hat is off to these guys. Glad to see young guys reviving Rock n The Blues. So many musicians these days are mostly Hip Hop and have electronic music, can't even tell if it has a band...crazy. Anyway, I wish the dudes all the best. Looks like they have worked hard to get where they are.
Rock doesn’t need to be brought back. Anyone who truly appreciates the genre should know there’s amazing stuff out there. The Mars Volta? My Morning Jacket? Circa survive? Muse? Radiohead?
Lead singer sounds faintly like....
Gilbert Gottfried
TimeGallon true
Exactly what I thought lmao
robert plant !! and why they never spoke about it !! the whole band sound like led zeppelin. and they never brought them up in any interview.
Good catch my guy
I'll be honest I don't care for these guys much
I'm not a huge Zeppelin fan nor that branch of Hard Rock
But what these guys said about the nature of people avoiding good music because it's hard to listen to and takes awhile to get is totally true
There's a serious aversion nowadays to complexity, artistry,intellectualism or challenge
That's why we have this throw away commercial culture
I know people will get mad if they slightly change their music, but because they're just so talented. You know it'd be good
0:59 - opening riff of "When The Curtain Falls"..... didn't know it at the time though!
Bring it Bring It Briiing It Baaaaaaack!! Lordy have mercy!🎸🎶🎹🎙🎤🎸
Just Believe Bath n Body Crystal McArthur - For a sec I thought you were writing Queen lyrics. LOL.
Our biggest influences are Howlin' Wolf and Taj Mahal but we are a total Zeppelin copy?
They are full of shit and all this shows is that they're very self conscious about the whole Zeppelin thing.
They may sound a bit like Zeppelin in places but overall their sound is so much more diverse. These boys are the real deal and for the record, they love Led Zeppelin as well as many other bands.
These kids give me hope for the future of this style of music. I really like how grounded they are in fundamentals, and they seem to be authentic. Do they currently sound Led Zepplin-ish...well, yes. Is that a bad thing...well, no, no it very much isn't. Personally I think their music stands on its own merits; when the playlist I have for them gets to the end, I reach over and hit repeat which I don't do with very many bands these days. My son and I listen to them and rock out together; he in particular resonates with this band that's closer to his own age and time than to a bunch of bands from four decades ago, but it also gives him an "in" to better appreciate some of the classics when I say 'if you like that, you'll probably also like..." and spin up an old tune. I hope this band and the visibility they are getting helps to open the door for a revival of this style of music, and maybe refresh it / keep it alive for the next generation.
Getting the right attention.
Anybody who appreciates good music would like them without saying much, just enjoying.
Let yourselves go people.
Jorge C. Except they're not doing anything new at the moment. Yes they are very talented and have the potential to change the music game, but right now they're a 70s rock nostalgia trip, nothing new or original
Ahh they mentioned Hozier! One of the best current artists.
These guys mother effin jam. It's great to hear they listened to all the greats growing up
Whenever i blast these guys or airbourne and other rock n roll bands in my iroc and people heads tend to roll because rap and pop are mainstream is all most young people my age knows, So it gives me that rebellious feeling if you know what i mean
Exactly man!!😂 These guys are my age and I hate it when I hear dumb middle schoolers walking down the street with their speakers blasting that lame ass, emotionless rap bullshit.
Iroc lol
They were talking about inspirations without a single mention of Led Zeppelin... I mean, i love these guys and they're obviously really talented but they refrain from mentioning the elephant in the room lol...
www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/greta-van-fleet-on-the-grammys-why-its-time-to-stop-the-zeppelin-comparisons-779296/. They mention it in this article
people want them to mention Zep every interview--after a while I would refrain too.
Aurel they were specifically talking about blues inspirations
If they keep ignoring it people are just going to dislike them and I would hate to see that happen to them
It’s a joke between them and Led, in one interview they said their main influencer was Aerosmith, like cmon😂
The drummer play the 12 string guitar and the bass too, the bassist play the keyboard too, the singer play the piano and the guitarist can make drums sounds with her guitar.
AWESOME 🤘
I found out about GVF for about 3 weeks ago. And im totally stuck to it. I have missed this kind of music ,real music. So love from Sweden. ❤
Bout time someone put the bass guitar back in music.
Matt Smith 612 or the guitar in general
I dont enjoy their music but their style and what they are aiming for is really admirable
I feel the same way about Sting.
when sam started talking about hozier i started crying. hozier + greta van fleet is all i think about anymore 😭
2:19 HOZIER!! Yes oh my goodness, these guys and Hozier are artists in THIS generation I can look up to. Rock and Roll lives on🤘🏼
You can really tell that they're struggling not saying Led Zeppelin when they mentioned their influences.
bc they're not
