SABBATH, for god's sake. I love them.
In this thread, I wrote:I honestly rate Led Zeppelin as a horrible, horrible band, and can't think of anything about them that doesn't make my stomach turn, except for Bonham's drumming sometimes.
Robert Plant (and Roger Daltrey for that matter, though the Who weren't nearly as awful as Zeppelin) really set the bar high for how damned irritating a singer can be. Led Zeppelin = endless bullshit guitar solos, proto-cock rock shrieking, tiresome and unexceptional "bluesy" garbage, and some of the worst lyrics to ever be bleated out. Seriously. Every song need not be about either fucking or Hobbits and other fantastical crap. I can't fathom people taking this band seriously, yet they do.
I stand by this assertion.

Duh.
That's like asking, which dog is more menacing...the pit bull or the poodle?
I have no use for poodles when it comes to my 70's rock bands.
Sabbath by a mile and a half.

for dumbass rock music? sabbath.
for music w/ more than just riffs? zeppelin.
zeppelin used a keyboard and it didn't suck. see, "trampled underfoot" for details. for real kicks, look up the lyrics.
"sabbra cadabra," anyone? blech. thanks, rick wakeman. worse than "stairway..." anyday.
i like my rock music with as much balls as brains, both of these have more of one than the other. but zep has a better ratio, at least in my opinion.
zeppelin had a more solid output from beginning to end. sabbath got more than a little shakey even in the middle of their career. plus zep stopped. stopping is nice. trotting out 50+ yr olds to play hits they wrote at 20...not so hot.
anyways, when i'm feeling stupid? sabbath. when i'm feeling maudlin? zeppelin.
