Creed Calls it Quits
hmm
I was kinda sad when I heard this, as I thought Creed was really cool. It sucks how they were so labelled as a "christian" band. Yes, most of the singles had to do with spirituality, etc, but the song on the album are awesome. Why? Not because of the lyrical content-- the music is good. Examples? Listen to "Are you ready", "Never Die", "Bullets", "Ode", or "What if" just to name a few. I don't think he even mentions god in these songs, as he doesn't in most of their songs (only the singles). Enough ranting from me, I guess I just dislike it when people judge a band on their radio singles-- they are usually picked by the record company more than the band.
Well that is pretty cool. The best part about them was their guitars, the lyrics sorta backed them up. I would love to hear something by these guys, as 'edgier than Creed' sounds good, because these guys are really awesome musicians.
Current Music: Evanescence - Tournequet (I downloaded them cuz everyone said their albums were really good... I'm still convinced 50 cent should have won the "Best New Artist" grammy.)
Link of the Day: Whiskey Makes Fishes' Balls Bigger

"Three former Creed members immediately announced they were forming a new band -- minus singer Scott Stapp -- but were quick to say it was not 'just Creed with a different singer." ... "Phillips described the music as edgier than Creed, with the musicians given more space to show off their chops."
