When this album was released in November 1969, it marked literally - the beginning of the new era and the new sound: Heavy Metal. And, while Heavy Metal existed as a genre even before Led Zeppelin II Blue Cheer, Vanilla Fudge, Steppenwolf it was heavily beholden to psychedelia and bore a heavy burden of debt to the previous era s exaggerations and idiosyncracies.

Not so with Led Zeppelin II. From the opening blast of Whola Lotta Love to the final fade of Bring it on Home , the listener knows that he is not in Kansas anymore. This is a whole new, uncharted territory. In fact, the album makes a clean break even with the band s first album: on their first album, one can easily hear remnants of British psychedelia Black Mountain Top , progressive rock Your time is gonna come urban electric blues You shook me How many more times I can t quit you , folk music Babe, I m gonna leave you and other styles the band members were into at a time. However, you won t find such excursions on Led Zeppelin II: the album is a monolithic slab of primo metal: an all-out, in-your-face assault from start to finish. Even the ballads exude the spirit of burning Metal.

For its extraordinary contribution to the contemporary music, superb production, craftsmanship, fine musicianship, revolutionary significance and influence it exerted on numerous generations of musicians, songwriters and general public, or for some other inherent quality, this album was voted one of top-200 albums of all time in one of the largest poll of critics, music reviewers, show business professionals and producers ever organized: the poll, which was conducted by Paul Gambaccini, the legendary BBC Radio AR man, surveyed more than 50 top music professionals including Roy Carr, Jonathan Cott, Robert Christgau, Cameron Crowe, Chet Flippo, Ben Fong-Torres, Charlie Gillett, Greil Marcus, Murray the K., Lenny Kaye, Bruce Morrow a/k/a Cousin Brucie , Tim Rice , Lisa Robinson, Robert Shelton, Ed Ward, Joel Whitburn, Pete Wingfield, etc. .
