Originally panned by some critics upon its 1969 release for its "brutal" and repetitive heavy sound, Led Zeppelin II has since been reappraised as a monumental masterpiece that essentially provided the "blueprint" for heavy metal. The album is celebrated for its legendary guitar riffs, particularly on "Whole Lotta Love" and "Heartbreaker". These tracks defined the band’s guitar-centric approach, where the riff often provides the primary hook rather than the vocal melody. Jimmy Page's production and guitar work are seen as the album's driving force.
