42 thoughts on “THE INCREDIBLY SAD RISE & FALL OF CREED

  1. I LOVE that you say the truth behind all of the pain or toxic behaviors of people that have experienced trauma. Everyone is quick to offer prayers when someone is abused, but then will condemn the addict the victim ultimately turns into. It's sad and we need more people like you who can see both sides of the person. Great video.

  2. Creed was never my style of rock what so ever, but I've always respected them and their success.
    There's too much envy & judgement in the world which is a bit pathetic. Too many people have an elitist mentality.
    Why fixate on or put any thought into bands they're not into? That's just dumb, spending time or energy to hate on anything. To each their own I guess tho if people enjoy being a soap-opera drama queen!

  3. Finn I give mad props. I'm sure you know how smug the gatekeepers of the scene are especially with "Christians" but not towards other religions and I've never understood that either. I love that you humanize people rather than make a tabloid-esque style one. Cool to see.

  4. I was born in 95 and my mom was a fan and when i finally got my moms creed greatest hits album I was blown away by how many of there songs felt so real at times and how one song could remind you of your past problems and the next could uplift you and make you feel great about yourself and the future. Yeah theres religious themes but i never considered them a Christian rock band just a rock band that had christian themes which i mean fuck the critics there's no reason themes from the bible cant be epic and powerful im not an overtly religious person but i do believe there's raw energy that stems from these themes cause they are the themes of humanity and the songs came off as beautiful and haunting songs of life and the other side and the struggles of man. I get the same feeling listening to Dragonforce which is fantasy metal or Sabaton which is historical metal or even Evanecense. Good music is good music.

  5. I think looking at Creed and Anberlin would be an excellent video. The former was a secular band called Christian while the latter was a Christian band treated as a secular. I find it interesting that Skillet and Anberlin can have large secular following with many not realizing they are Christian labels.

  6. It bugs me that music snobs will criticize bands for having Christian undertones, yet when bands are radical left wing activists in their lyrics it’s seen as somehow cool. God forbid you’re not a degenerate with a victim mentality in the music industry.

  7. As a Pearl Jam fan I was only excited when I heard a song by another band that captured a similar magic to what PJ has. It's not like they were one of those half assed bands record labels were signing left and right during the rise of Grunge… that era was already over, so the critics were just being pretentious assholes like they always were. They HATE it when they aren't the king makers.

    Also, I abandoned religion and was growing to actively dislike Christianity in my teens, so I was as shocked as anyone that I liked this band with very Christian lyrics. It's not like it swayed my feelings on my former religion, ether, but I could appreciate how sincere and personal the lyrics came across, unlike the vapid virtue signaling of Christian Rock.

  8. Alterbridge is fucking amazing ..I love creed. I love Tremontie and I love Alterbridge. Everyone struggles. Prednisone is a drug I will not take too. I feel he was feeding into what the media was saying about him during their height. I also feel that his godlike videos where him doing what he was told. I mean they were huge and making bank. That's why being independent is so great yet so hard. When I was like 13 they had their independent album and I was like I don't think they are Christian necessarily…the media doesn't want main stream Christian.

  9. Still listen to creed regularly, I was raised Christian but never felt like he the band was pushing an agenda and never thought of them as a Christian band. I always loved creed and always will

  10. Higher was played so much that year I literally stopped listening to mainstream radio because of it. I just hated Cursed because they were on all the time. Overplayed was an understatement

  11. Sounds like the critics are just a bunch of idiots jealous of talent and preaching their views to try and become greater in success than the bands they should be constructive about. A true critic would show the reasons why they are bad. these critics don't have the knowledge or capabilities to understand 'the formula" because there is none. Most artists go through life constructing masterpieces through will alone. Some have a plan, sure, but this was pure will. especially with the fast paced success they made.
