The "I don't get it" thread

WTF Creed (lead singer slips my mind) has one of the best if not the best rock voice to come along in 20 years or more!

Jewel, well she has more talent in one breast than 90% of the todays top 40.

 

heh What about billy?

 

amen to that, sandman! dont remember his name either, but man...what a voice!

love creed.

 

Scott Stapp is his name.

 

thanx, niner. obtw, sandman, did you catch creed last night on sat. night live? did anyone? i missed it.

 

Creed's a decent band and they have a good singer but I don't really like their product that much. I'll listen to it if it's there, but I won't stop turning the channel or physically make an effort to turn it on.

 

I'll go with you on that magnus.

thing about Creed is alot, IMO most, of their songs sound the same. Which seems to carry over to alot of bands nowadays.

 

I'll actually agree with Gutter....on Creed. They are what Bad Company was to Led Zepplin. Fourth generation Pearl Jam. I can't actually beleive that in 10 years, we can have 4 different reclyings of a grunge band, but here we are. From Pearl Jam, to STP, to Bush, and now Creed. It's just gotten more formulated and shiney.

Now, another band I don't get is Slayer, and how some people seem to think that 5th generation Motorhead meets Judas Priest band is actually somehow punk. Just because they do a few Smiths covers or something doesn't make them Black Flag.

 

thing i like about creed is that they can actually sing and has a legitimate style. i.e. my own prison and higher. their music is simple. easy to tolerate (IMO) and fun to sing along to. i like "higher" for its entertainment value. that unique voice is so full! i'd pay to see them in concert. actually they were here in denver last june. i was not, otherwise i woulda paid serious money to see them.

 

Dems fightin' words. Slayer has been around since "79". They are hardly 5th generation of anybody. They are punk-fused metal. Hell, they were in punk bands. Listen to the album Undisputed Attitude.
