| 1 | * BrokenBase: Between fans who think that they are [[SerialNumbersFiledOff too similar]] to Music/LedZeppelin (and, to a lesser extent, other [[TheSeventies 70s]] ClassicRock groups such as Music/{{Aerosmith}} and Music/{{Rush|Band}}) and those who think that they are already unique enough. |
| 2 | * CriticalDissonance: Despite [[https://www.metacritic.com/music/anthem-of-the-peaceful-army/greta-van-fleet mixed-to-negative reviews]], the band managed to score a [[https://www.billboard.com/music/greta-van-fleet/chart-history/billboard-200/song/1104727 #3 album]] on the Billboard 200, which proceeded to stay on the chart for eleven weeks afterwards. |
| 3 | * GuiltyPleasure: There are people who consider them to be imitative of Led Zeppelin, yet appreciate their musical abilities nonetheless. |
| 4 | * IAmNotShazam: Their name sounds like it should refer to a woman, not a group. On a whim, they named themselves after a resident of their hometown who they thought had a cool name (Gret'''n'''a Van Fleet), without initially telling her - when they first started performing live, their namesake would be confused by acquaintances asking if she was planning on putting on a show. |
| 5 | * OvershadowedByControversy: As explained above, the band is often criticized for sounding like Led Zeppelin and Josh in particular for sounding like Robert Plant and mimicking some of his gestures (even if Josh stated that ''he did not even know who Led Zeppelin were until high school''). Some argue it stalls the evolution of rock music, while some argue it's a nice change of pace. |
| 6 | * SoOkayItsAverage: The main response most people had to their controversial first album from fans, haters, and average listeners. The common consensus is that it plays it a bit ''too'' safe for a first album and could have benefited from drawing upon the wackier side of classic/prog rock. [[labelnote: For example]]See Rush's first album and a few of the deeper cuts from Led Zepplin's discography.[[/labelnote]] |
| 7 | * TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: Many of the group's detractors believe that their similarity to Led Zeppelin in turn makes their music inherently bad. |
