  • Jimmy Page Explains Why 'Houses of the Holy' Was Not Titled 'Led Zeppelin V'

    After releasing four self-titled albums accompanied by Roman numerals, Led Zeppelin opted to call their fifth effort "Houses of the Holy," which baffled some fans. Jimmy Page gave a simple explanation for the name change recently."It goes 'I,' 'II' and 'III,' as you say, but then 'IV,' there's still four symbols, so it still goes in digits [like 'IIII'], you see," Page said during a Q&A with fans on SiriusXM, "Rolling Stone" reports. "But [the fifth album] wasn't going to be 'Led Zeppelin Victory Sign [V].' So 'Houses of the Holy'.""It's about all of us being houses of the Holy Spirit, in a sense," he added about the title.Fans have tried to explain the subtle move for years, with some saying it had to do with Page's fixation with occultist Aleister Crowley and others pointing out that Houses just sounded different from the first four records, "Consequence of Sound" notes.

  • Trent Reznor Likes Oscar Nominations Way Better Than Winning a Grammy

    Trent Reznor's film composition career has been a huge success so far, and he enjoys the praise from the movie industry more than the awards he has collected as a member of Nine Inch Nails. He would rather win an Oscar than a Grammy."Having won a couple Grammys for stupid s--t — best metal performance — it's hard to feel good about the integrity of that," Reznor told "The Hollywood Reporter" recently. "If that's how much you're paying attention to what you're giving out, why should I think that really means anything?"Reznor has never been a fan of the awards show, but that relationship worsened in January when his show-closing performance at the Grammys — with Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters, Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac — was cut short for a commercial.
