New Creed Album - Full Circle
2009-04-28 by Meatplow | 68 Replies | 16511 Views |
After a six-year hiatus, multi-platinum selling Orlando-based rock band Creed have returned with a new record tentatively titled Full Circle. "We never felt like we weren't together," says frontman Scott Stapp. "We're not looking at this as a reunion. It's more of a rebirth."
Though they stayed in touch through holiday cards and the occasional phone call, the group refrained from recording together in order to, "explore other creative outlets and build the main priority in all of our lives, which is our family," says Stapp.
Indeed, the band has grown up quite a bit, as has Stapp's son Jagger, the muse behind their hit "With Arms Wide Open." "He's not a baby anymore," says the proud papa of the 10-year-old. Stapp now also has a 2-year-old named Milán. Could another hit about his offspring be on the horizon? Quite possibly. He wrote a tune about his daughter as well, simply titled "Milan Song." "She's my twin soul, my light," he says of his little lady. "I do whatever she wants."
Stapp, who made the initial push for Creed to get back together, says it was awesome to see all the guys in one room again. "I said, 'I love you and if I've ever caused you any pain in your life forgive me.' And they said the same things right back." With any bad blood dissolved, the guys got back to jamming and planning a summer tour. "We're not trying to stay in a certain place or conform to where we left off," says Stapp. "The music is fresh, edgy, raw, passionate, honest and it rocks."
"It's just the right time and we're all excited!"

Forget Heaven and Hell, Sputnik. Full Circle is the comeback album of the year.
|

Will give a 5.

What will happen if this is actually awesome? Creed have potential, they just never acted on it much.
|
| |
wow this was unexpected

They lost Stapp, became Alter Bridge and never acted on it much either. :/ There was a hell of a lot of potential there with Myles Kennedy, who can sing as well as Chris Cornell used to! Why he chose to restrain his voice is beyond me.
Tremonti seems like a cool guy to me, and I dare say they've written a few decent songs in their time. But their brand of mainstream rock has been done to death and I don't see them making any significant changes. I sense a snoozefest, but probably one that doesn't deserve all the hate it's going to receive simply because it's Creed.

going to be album of the year, just know it
|
| |
Band's not as bad as everyone makes them out to be.
And what's with all these album ratings and soundoffs for news articles
|
| |
I love how I am reminded every 3 days that this band is getting back together through Sputnikmusic... and by love I mean hate.
|
| |
Ugh, hate this band, but Tremonti and the rest of the band are pretty talented.

Has the potential to be the worst thing they've ever done... or the best, but that's not such saying much.
|
| |
Uh oh, Creed's back, and more dangerous then ever
|
| |
I always liked creed a lot on an instrumental level.
|
| |
Some of the clean stuff Tremonti did was pretty creative, although he overdid it, and the occasional riff was catchy and non-obnoxious, but... yeah.
999.
|
| |
 well at least my mom will be happy
|
| |
I just really like his style of playing, at least he brought his own style to the table.
|
| |
i am actually very curious to hear this new album

band is not bad. The only problem is that they draw over a very lame fan base which makes music lovers hate them.
|
| |
I can really see where people would get the impression of generic radio rock from their singles like, with arms wide open, higher, my sacrifice, and that stuff. But they always had pretty unique sounding songs on their albums, especially the first two.
|
| |
"We're not looking at this as a reunion. It's more of a rebirth."
I can only assume it will be as worthwhile as Lil Wayne's "Rebirth."
|
| |
I can only imagine how wonderfully hilarious this will be.

|
| |
Same.
|
| |
so is Alter Bridge going on hiatus because of this or what?
|
| |
oh no... this is terrible news
|
| |
So terrible that I want to jump off the nearest cliff. Ok. Maybe not *that* terrible.
|
| |
Lol....I think I need to draw a map or write some kind of novel about how little I give a damn about this.
|
| |
this would be such bad news if I actually listened to the radio. since I don't, who cares.
|
| |

I will support this cause.
|
| |
^i dont either.. but sometime i bet you will hear some of the songs on this album even if you dont want to
|
| |
sorry i was tlking to tripleb2k
|
| |
Curse you. Curse you to the end of the world. Curse you when there is nothing else to curse. Curse you when I feel like cursing for no apparent reason. Oh btw, I forgive you.

There may be a very small chance that this could turn out to be slightly decent. Creed's writing and sound overall got worse with every single album..that last album they put out before the breakup was one of the worse albums I had ever heard. Their first album actually had somewhat decent material on it, and with every album they just kept getting shittier. Mark Tremonti is probably the only decent thing there ever was with this band, none of the other members really had a fair amount of "real" talent, I don't think..or at least, it never showed. The band on an instrumental level was not that bad, some of the songs did have their good moments and catchy, non generic riffs...but Scott Stapp kind of ruined that. Their music in general was just overplayed, boring, generic mainstream rock and that's kind of what makes the band suck so much for a lot of people. As Golgoroth said, Creed had/have potential...This Message Edited On 04.28.09This Message Edited On 04.28.09

yeah Creed do have potential. But they always have, and yet they've never fulfilled it. Alter Bridge is awesome though, so maybe some of those elements will carry over to Full Circle.
however, Creed has always annoyed me. even if this is an improvment, i'm going to do my best to ignore it.
|
| |
horrible band. not surprised to see scott stapp make this move though.
|
| |
Neither am I. It was bound to happen sooner or later.

you haven't visited?
we must not speak of it outside it.

Forget Heaven and Hell, Sputnik. Full Circle is the comeback album of the year.
The crazy thing is, I bet this will sell more than if Blink were to release a new album.
Actually its not that crazy, they both suck.
|
| |
does anyone know if there is a place to pre-order the album?

HAHAHA.
|
| |
i love that video
|
| |
Hilarious! That video bugs me.
|
| |
i said it on the reunion thread...and i must state it again...
Release Date: 21 December 2012
|
| |
And all the music noobies await in anticipation.
|
| |
Oh no, it's all downhill from here, next there will be a Backstreet Boys reuinion. Then the sky will rain fire, and maybe something bout jesus in a chariot.
|
| |
"next there will be a Backstreet Boys reuinion"
AAARRRRRRGGGGHHH!!!
|
| |
backstreet boys already reunited.
and backstreet boys are infinitely better than creed.
|
| |
most bands are better than Creed, even the shit ones.
|
| |
What fucks me up is how so many will barely give this band their due--because of Stapp's egotistic and bull-headed honesty...or some skate punk's cynical need to diss a band to sound important with his friends. CREED IS AN EXTREMELY TALENTED AND ROCKING BAND!!! And, although I'm awaiting for anything to be released by Alter Bridge, it is good to see people come back together again and do what they do best.
I will buy the new release, no question. As for the pukes who find some need to hate this group, I'm sure that Creed doesn't give a shit about you either.
|
| |
creed is more talented than most, and less talented than others.
that statement unfortunately sums up most of creed's existence.

People need to stop giving Tremonti credit for things...
|
| |
Exactly. He's a talented guitarist, but he still writes relatively unoriginal material (in both of his bands). This album will be bad not just because of Scott Stapp (although he certainly helps); I'm certain it will be a group effort.
|
| |
Dude's writing is really just awful to me...

haha wow i just started playing that song and i forgot how epic it was, thankyou random old creed thread
|
| |
The soundtrack to the apocalypse is going to rule.
|
| |
Although it's a matter of opinion i dont know how anyone can say this band are not great, the reason they went downhill a bit in there latest album was because of scott stapps drug problem and im sure with the album "Full Circle" he'll make up for it all
|
| |
How do you give a news article a rating. I dont get it.
