This album just improves on Led Zeppelin I in every way. It’s more bluesy and has more memorable riffs. The quieter parts are quieter and and the louder parts are louder with more layers to compliment them. The bridges are longer and allow for more explosive climaxes. Some of the tracks I was leaner less towards in the past are now some of my favourites on the album.
