Thanks for posting this! With so much bad news being posted it’s good to see some positivity!!!! Everyone wants to hate. yeah, I’d like to see them go triple DIAMOND, sell 35 millions records, right? exactly.

This is the BEST news I’ve ever heard…in my entire life. The one band that actually improved people’s lives by giving them a second Christ to look up to and give true hope that life can be worth living! Scott Stapp will be remembered as the songwriter of our generation, not to mention easily the best SHOW of our Millenia! Even his National Anthem soars skyscraper-height over Aretha’s inaugural rendition! I love Aretha, who doesn’t, but Scott dominates… and we should bestow upon him the honor and rock-god glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Officially,
Wicked Celtics

@TheRunningboard7: I'll be on the whipping post right next to you...bought the first and stole the other two from my brother. I'm an optimist, but maybe the fact that Alter Bridge showed that the guys not named Scott Stapp can in fact play might bring something good to a new Creed album. That said, why does the guy in the top right look like he's 15 years older than everyone else?

@brooklynradio: 101.9 is perhaps one of the most frustrating listens. Just when you think you're free of baby boomer rock and might have an alternative/modern rock outlit, they hit you with a Boston, Aerosmith and/or Rod Stewart song.

Scott Stapp isn’t actually sitting down in that picture – he’s just back to his legs-spread-wide singing stance.

Gotta make the child support payments somehow, I guess.

And if anyone doubts that the album is going to be huge, and have at least one successful single, you should consider that Pearl Jam had a #1 song this year. Pearl. Jam. Your average Afflication-wearing MMA fan is going to be all over this record. The only thing that would cripple it is poor promotion or the band self-destructing (again) in the studio.

Despite the scowl, Stapp is so excited he had to hide his junk.

This is the kind of thing that makes me question whether there is a God.

How much higher can Mr. Stapp take us with his musical poetry? Maybe Creed’s new, raw sound is that of Christian electro rock? (Remember gravy grunge Brits Bush went electronic after their third attempt flopped?)

Either way, I’m sure they’ll get some spins–somewhere. This might not be completely related: But has anyone noticed that modern rock stations are going bye-bye. Here in NYC, the two rock stations are 101.9 and Q104.3. 101.9 is more eclectic in their selections and take chances by playing deeper cuts. But, for the most part, play male guitar rock orientated towards punk, blues, and arena, mixing up the eras. Q104.3 is your straight up classic rock, mixing up the same 30-40 classics from Floyd, Zep, Van Halen, Queen, etc. all day. They’ve added some Nirvana and Pearl Jam to the mix lately.

But I’m wondering where the audience that actually wants to hear Creed, Lumpy Bizkit, and the rest will go to find it?

I mostly listen to CBS FM or Hot 97 because in the car I want to hear either Motown or hip-hop. And they have great DJs.

I’d suggest that maybe the best parts of the Limp Bizkit reunion and the best parts of the Creed reunion and the best parts of the RATM reunion could get together to make a supergroup and spare us the rest… … but then we’d have three guitar players.

For full disclosure (prepare your whips), I not only own three Creed albums, but will defend the second one to the death. The first I’m indifferent to, and the third made me wish I illegally downloaded music.
