The members of Led Zeppelin lean against a car in Australia in 1970. Led Zeppelin was an English rock and roll band that formed in London in 1968. The band’s style and energy have given them the credit for being a forerunner of heavy metal music. After changing to Atlantic Records, the band experienced much success releasing albums Led Zeppelin 1 -1 IV, Houses of Holy, and more. Their worldwide success and impact on music have established them as one of the most successful and influential rock and roll groups of all time. Rolling Stone has even gone so far as to describe them as “the biggest band of the Seventies.”
