I admit...I was a huge fan of Creed when they were a group. In fact me and my buddies have thier albums and we usually talk about them. Its a damn shame that Stapp and the Band aren't togethor anymore.
I know some think the Band was cookie cuter and all. But some of us liked it. I always loved thier songs. I can't wait to heat Stapp's new CD and I hope it has that old Creed feel.

I liked a couple songs from their first album, but they quickly grew too...grandiose, or something. I got the feeling that they felt they were bigger than they really were. Especially the singer. It just really put me off the band, and I stopped caring.

It was a good interview where he discussed Creed and his ex-Bandmates,. He never blasted them. He feels they didn't know his whole medical problems and why he was relunctant to play anymore Tours.

I think they either tend to be grossly overated or grossly underated personally, I didn't mind some of their songs and they had a good guitarists who had several pretty good guitar solos.

I can't wait to hear Stapp's new album though. He's even bringing in Hip Hop producers for it."Heads up-- If Havok's position in UA #5 really upset you, it's time to drown yourself hobo piss. Seriously, do it. It's the only solution." - Rick Remender

I just think they're posers riding the Pearl Jam bandwagon, only with worse lyrics.

If so, I'm just dense or something cause I never read anything stating that when I signed up.

I never saw much similarity between them and Pearl Jam, for one thing Stapp had more range, and their song structure tended to be more complex. Originally Posted by kid cthulhu

We all know Crocker is saddened by Creed no longer being together. Thankfully he has the new Oasis album to keep him from dwelling on his grief.

Creed was okay if you just took them for what they were - a modernized throwback to late 70's/early 80's arena rock. Their songs were decent enough, but just horrendously overplayed. It didn't help that Scott Stapp was a pompous ass, though.
They're not nearly as bad as those that hate them the worst would say, but they're not nearly as good as those who love them the best would say.
