The CREED Thread

[Darthphere]

So...you don't like them...yet you make it a point to come into this thread and trash them anyway?

Well, it's his right as an American and or human being.

 

[Pickle-El]

As a Pearl Jam fan....I never did, and still don't get the Creed hatred from the 90's crowd. Possibly because Creed overtook PJ and many of their contemporaries in popularity at one point during Creed's height...I don't really know. I suspect it's probably because was creating massive hit after massive hit while bands they were accused of sounding like were laying by the waste-side pissed a few people off.

Don't get me wrong, Stapp DID act like a ***** many times. Though, their music was always good to very good. My Sacrifice, One Last Breath, Higher...these are some of the biggest rock songs of the 00's. Tremonti is a FANTASTIC guitar player. I suspect the Creed party has reached it's apex a few years ago, but there's room left for them to still make something of what was created. The test of a good band is time and consistency....let's see if the band is up to it.

(though, they still don't compare to PJ)

 

[Kelly]

I don't understand the comparison to Pearl Jam.....

Creed sounds more like Hootie and Blowfish to me....lol

 

[The Chairman]

One tour I can be glad I won't be seeing. They're as bad as they've ever been.

 

[Kelly]

Be quiet Sinatra lover....

LMAO. Sinatra is better than Creed any day of the week, not to mention any decade of a century.

Well, as a lover of many genres of music, I wouldn't even attempt to compare the two......nor do I believe that the members of Creed even allow people to do that out of respect they probably have for Sinatra and his music.


BUT, I do enjoy both, and both quite often......

They are incomparable, for sure.

 

[Kargo Warrior]

They are incomparable, for sure.

Only a child would post similar things like this...when they broke up there was a online journal in which fans left their messages for the band...there were thousands of people posting stories about how Creed's music was there for them when they had bad times,issues etc...

I'm quite sure every one of those people would find Sinatra incomparable to Creed.

And let's not stop there,if we compare Sinatra with real musicians like Louis Armstrong,Miles,Coltrane,Mozart,Dvorak,Bach,Brahms,etc..he can't hold a candle to them.

In today's society ignorance is the most accepted behavior...everything you don't like = sucks,is overrated,has zero value.

Only an arrogant person thinks along those lines.I have never liked Ac/Dc and their 3 chord songs but i don't go in an Ac/Dc threads posting they suck and similar things...the fact that they're not my cup of coffee doesn't mean their music sucks.

 

[The Chairman]

Well, when I said incomparable in response to Kel's post, I was referring to her stating how she loved many genres and how she wouldn't begin to compare them in that aspect.

...just wanted to let everyone know that the concert was amazing! They basically played their greatest hits cd plus the new single, 'overcome'.

Very cool - Can you provide any details about the show?

What sing did they open with?
Any surprise songs (other than the new one, I guess)?
Tremonti solo?

They recently played in my area, I wanted to catch the show, but couldn't make it.

Were you locked up in your own prison?

It was a very well done show. They have always used pyrotechnics and fire in their shows, but it seemed to be even more this time around.

They opened the show with 'Bullets' and there were quite a few extended breaks in different songs for Tremonti to show off.

I posted a couple of clips in the thread of performances from their shows earlier in the tour. (That should give you an idea of what this concert was like.)

 

[steintym]

Great, I'll check those clips out. Thanks for the info.

Bullets is probably my favorite song by them. Who's Got My Back? is probably their most powerful song, in my opinion. I'm really liking the new Overcome single though.

 

[Marx]

Bullets is a great great song!

I think 'Overcome' is one of their best. I'm really excited to hear the rest of the new album!

Bullets is my new fav song from them.

Overcome gets better and better the more I hear it.

Creed's music video for 'Overcome' comes out later today. Believe on yahoo Music.

[enterthemadness]

Literally nothing special.

Still better than Three Days Grace (who I really like) Break video.

 

[Matt Mortem]

Hooray for Creed reuniting. I had no idea there's a thread on it. I never understood the Creed hate, but whatever. They're back and it seems Stapp has pulled his head out of his ass.
