Scott Stapp could be returning to Creed’s arms wide open

Creed, the band for people whose parents wouldn’t let them buy rap albums, rock albums, or any non-vaguely Christian albums, are reportedly nearing a reunion after Alter Bridge singer Myles Kennedy (the non Scott Stapp contingent of Creed are in that band now) is possibly moving on to Led Zeppelin, and promoters have put “significant dollars on the table” for a Creed reunion, according to Billboard.

 

If this does go down, a very small slice of the American population is liable to go apeshit, while everyone else will wonder, “Who the hell cares?” Jesus does, that’s who.

 

But can Creed even climb on the “holier than thou” horse any more though? I mean after two albums of cock rock with Alter Bridge, the band is just barely more pious than Hinder, and Stapp is known now more as a wife beater, alcoholic, and sex tape director than a swarthy maybe Christian rocker. Either way, Creed might be getting back together. Tell al your friends. [Billboard via Idolator]

I predict massive flop. And I will laugh...

This is all taken out of context. The band is not planning anything. Mark Tremonti hasn't even spoken with Scott Stapp.

Wow cock rock? Wtf are u talking about? Either you haven't listened to a nething from AB, or your taste in music sucks ass. They are probably the only modern ROCK band that is worth listening to.

I think Scott Stapp does not need Creed, he has a second CD coming out in the first part of 2009, and he has proven by the first Album "Great Divide" he can sell more records than Alter Bridge's two recordings together. That being said, I like Alter Bridge as well. Maybe it's the band and not so much the singer, but they can't seem to break into the money like Stapp can. If it happens I'll go, just to see what they sound like after all this time and I would go see L.Z. if Miles Kennedy was chosen as lead singer just ot see who shows up!

Great news, finally there will be something good to listen to...hope it is true, but if not I will still listen to old Creed songs and Scott Stapp's songs and await his new CD...

Wow I agree with everyone who implied that ppl must not have heard any Alter Bridge song.They are an awesome band and Mark Tremonti is a monster on a guitar and one hell of a song writer.As for Creed...They were a good band with an egotistical singer who was the demise of a great band with a great following.I love Creed.They apparently were doing something right to sell over 20 million records world wide.I hope they do reunite and do a new album maybe it will bring something new and fresh to a stagnant rock genre!

My name says it all, Scott doesn't need Alter Bridge to keep getting HIGHER. Scott has continued to make a Solo Career that sounds 10x better than Alter Bridge. EVERYTIME I hear Alter Bridge, I wonder if it would sound better instrumental. The lead sucks and Scott does not.

I remember seeing Scott Stapp on one of those late night shows where they show a DVD in letterbox and talk about it in between the film. On one of the eps Scott Stapp was the guest host. You could tell he was either high as a kite or drunk off his ass. In either case, he made a total tard out of himself, and you could even see the folks on the show were getting annoyed with him..

I saw Creed in 2002 at the Tweeter Ctr in Jersey and loved the show. I would love to see the band reunite, but only if Stapp got his act together. I listen to Alter Bridge but it's just not the same without the Stapp/Tremonti combo. It's like pretty much every other band that has split up over the years (VH, Zep, Stones)- if the guitarist and singer split, there's not much good left. The only exception I've seen to date has been Audioslave (RATM split as did SG, and they made a good band). But of course now even AS is gone too!!! DAMMITTTTT!!!
