Greta Van Fleet

We watched a video in class last week, of Greta Van Fleet and afterwards we discussed what we thought about the band. To me Greta Van Fleet are not that amazing. All they did was take a bunch of Led Zepplin songs and re vamped them to sound original. They do not however sound original, they’re has been a lot of talk about this band about their sound, style and quality of music they produce. They are very talented people, I wish I could of been where they are at the age they were, but it feels like no originality has come from them. It is great that they are trying to revive the 7os blues rock scene, but they way they have done it is to just take other peoples ideas and portray them as their own. I really do not hate these guys, I just wish they were paving a way in the music industry that was their own ideas. Their clothes even portray the 70s blues rock band to a T. I digress though, just in December of 2018 Greta Van Fleet was nominated for four Grammy awards including best new artist. So obviously what they are doing is working for them. It does even state that Robert Plant himself has given these guys his best. He does not seem to mind that they are revamping his band into a new era. In conclusion these guys are very talented and even if I have my problems with the originality of their music you still can not put pass them that they are getting big, and who knows maybe they will win a Grammy this year.
