#1811 Led Zeppelin - Presence

Nothing new to say about this one in 2015: it's stripped to the bone, all the instruments just there in perfect balance. Blues + rock = blues rock, as pure as it comes, and it's pretty goddamn great. Just the riffs and songsmanship and rhythmic lockdown that you like about Zeppelin, without any of the pretention and nonsense.

None of the riffs here live up to their best, but for every Black Dog you had to suffer a Stairway to Heaven*. No more! All almost killer // absolutely no filler 4/5

* still hands down the most overrated song of all time, and it's not close, and if you disagree you can kiss my whole ass
