Description
"After the lukewarm, if not confused and sometimes dismissive, critical reaction Led Zeppelin III had received in late 1970, [Jimmy] Page decided that the next Led Zeppelin album would not have a title, but would instead feature four hand-drawn symbols on the inner sleeve and record label, each one chosen by the band member it represents. 'We decided that on the fourth album, we would deliberately play down the group name, and there wouldn't be any information whatsoever on the outer jacket', Page explained. 'Names, titles and things like that do not mean a thing.'"
In 2000, Led Zeppelin IV was named the twenty-sixth greatest British album in a list by Q magazine. In 2002, Spin magazine's Chuck Klosterman named it the second greatest metal album of all time and said that it was 'the most famous hard-rock album ever recorded' as well as an album that unintentionally created metal—'the origin of everything that sounds, feels, or even tastes vaguely metallic' In 2003, the album was ranked number 69 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of 'The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, which described it as 'the peak of Seventies hard rock.' It was also named the seventh-best album of the 1970s in a list by Pitchfork Media."...Wikipedia.price rating
