You are jaded by some unfounded hate.
... Hate is a bit strong, but for Robert Plant, maybe, who imo thinks much too highly of himself & was a hindrance to some pretty good musicians. ... There's no denying Bonham's, Page's, & Jones's talent, and they have a couple of songs that I like, but overall, Zeppelin's music is just simply overrated. They've always had their group of followers & always will, and much of it is due more to the culture of the era they represent than their music itself. It's also well-known that they did blatantly rip off songs from other artists, and I tend not to consider bands who do that as GOAT category.

I think you are off base about it not being about the music, they put our some of the all time great albums IMO.
they were the ultimate rock stars, which adds a bit of an aura. That isn't anything the stones didn't do as well - play up their "bad bay" image to gain more traction. But LZ had a profound impact on the landscape of the music industry moving forward.
