Crucial Van Taunt

looool CAAL

I like how in one of the snl songs they went as far as having the bassist play the keyboard/organ...
That and the guitarist moves : basically they're a role playing game gone wrong !

The GVF singer is even paying tribute to young Robert Plant's hair.

That hairdo (and the fashion choices) are debatable.

they are trolls who even look like trolls. their mission is to sow dissension between millennials and boomers by cleverly transmuting hate for the band into hate for an entire generation.

Mission accomplished!

lead singer of this group should go solo and have the dude from semisonic write him some hits

or make a record with Alison Krauss

I get more of a Dio vibe from the singer than anything else tbh

that's extremely rude to Dio, his voice is weak as fuck

Lol yea he's like Dio if he was in the car with The D.O.C.

The problem is his voice is so bad that the only way to save it would be to add reverb or double it or whatever, but that would make it worse. Kind of like the dude from the Darkness, whose voice fell just short of the kind of hair metal/glam histrionics he was aiming for, except they were silly on purpose, and falling short felt like part of the fun. This dude is like a weekend carny working the Ren Faire whose sole job is clean up the half eaten giant turkey legs left on the picnic tables.

And by "clean up" I mean eat.

Or put another way, all the people who have such a big problem with Geddy Lee should be forced to listen to this for some perspective.

dude's voice is not terrible. he could easily be the lead singer of a band with actual songs. then again, he at some point agreed to a bridge of woah ho hooooo-ooooHooooo yeah...yeyahs and likes to yodel. so maybe not.

he could be the lead singer of The Beets in Doug

All I know is from what little I've heard from these dudes, it's the singer that makes me turn it off. Just like, yeah, what people say about Rush, except Rush is awesome.

GVF's singer's voice is a karaoke parlor trick. He does mimicry which can be fun in that kind of setting, jarring when used on recorded albums and tours.

Like I can do a mean "Thunderstruck" but I wouldn't dare use that voice to like...record music

Lol @Darkness guy. I hated his fucking voice

Obviously he’s not fit to carry Dio’s cape, didnt mean to imply quality there
Xps

I still don't hear Dio as he had a light, pure tone to his voice that he added dirty tones too. Where GVF guy starts shrill and just gets shrilla

I'm guessing the Dio comparison was mostly based on height

yeah it's more of a general resemblance thing - Dio is obviously p unique as a vocalist

Like I can do a mean "Thunderstruck" but I wouldn't dare use that voice to like...record music

Wow, seriously? I was talking to a friend of mine who did a tribute band night of AC/DC and they had to bring in a ringer for some songs. Brian Johnson's voice hangs at this freakish scary full-throated shriek level that seems achievable until you try to sustain it for a whole song, let alone maintain the assault for a second one or more. It'll shred you!

my trick is that I'm a classically trained singer with a loud powerful falsetto so whereas Johnson's is throaty, I start with a clean tone and dirty it enough just enough to where it sounds shrill but doesn't actually hurt. now, dunno if I could do it for 90 minutes, but...yeah!

of course I don't think anybody would confuse me for him - he's much rawer sounding

― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal)

i mean i think if greta van fleet's singer was classically trained he probably wouldn't sing like he does

i heard a great greta van fleet parody recently, it was like 'ooh mama let's go to the misty mountain top, i gotta ramble'. long shot but does anyone remember this and know where it is

WATCH OUT GRETA VAN FLEET, JOYOUS WOLF IS GUNNIN' 4 THAT NUMBER ONE SPOT

I saw these guys open for buckcherry and they put on an amazing show!!

lol

OMG the guitar player is the kid from this father/son Verizon commercial

https://www.ispot.tv/ad/oZ7N/verizon-blake-and-chris-iphone-xr

Haha I just assumed those were actors and that the kid wasn’t a real rock star with his Billy Corgan in 1991 hairstyle looking ass

this is near the top of my all-time fave 70s buttrock songs but seeing those guys do it is just embarassing

the original is an all time classic

Dude looks more like Danzig than Gish Billy

verizon ad harder to watch than music vid imo

he means the guitar player not the singer xp

Boomers just love their own Boomer-ness reflected back at them in a positive light, they don't really care about quality or skill

These guys look like a Jet cover band.

singer looks like the singer from an '80s hair metal band, the rest of the dudes look like a lite-grunge band from '98, they've got a "wolf" band name from 2006, very confusing

Anybody remember these guys?

Great revive.

FIN

still can't believe "Greta Van Fleet" is a band and not Greta Van Susteren's social media stan fanbase name

The one hit wonder band without a hit.

They disappeared over the hills and far away

"Highway Song" or whatever it's called is fun.

yes these guys are totally gone until their next album comes out in few months

^This.
