Full Circle, get it? It's not just a description of the album's emotional content, it's also a reference to the band's journey post break-up, that they undertook only to understand that they needed to get back together. Deep right? Good for them then, cause it's not like they couldn't have done their tour this year without any new material. I'm pretty sure that at any Creed show, all of the Stapp hounds spend the rest of the show stuffing their tongues back into their mouths after the opening chords of "Higher."
I can't wait for creed to launch this album!

Hola a todos los fans de este tan buen grupazo como lo es creed, quiero participar mi gran a emoción por saber que han vuelto, se que pasece algo obsesivo, pero esta banda me impactó grandemente con todas son canciones, de tal forma que cuando me entere de su separacion, contaba los dias esperando a que milagrosamente vuelva Creed y para alegrarme muchísimo por su gran re-encuentro, y declaro que me considero un superultramega fan de CREED!
Fredy
I went to see Creed last week in concert in Pittsburgh. VH1 was there,Filming the concert and it was Creeds First concert in 7 years. They were soooooooooo Awesome. and I love their new songs.It looked like the singer Scott was gonna cry, beings it was the the first time he 's been on stage for 7 long years. He still looks hot as ever!!!!! they are awesome. It was The Best concert I've been too for awhile. and you gotta go see them. It's worth every penny and more!!!!
Sandi

Creezerback 20
Wait, isn't Creed that band that used Christian rock to jump start their career before jumping ship to create completely commercialized "modern rock", the same "modern rock" that is killing rock & roll as we know it? Didn't the "inspirational" front man star in a porn with Kid Rock, in which he proclaimed himself "the king of the world"? You guys are all right Creed is soooo awesome.
Tairy Greene
Tairy get off your f*cking high horse, they write and perform the best 'modern rock' songs around,when exactly did creed jump ship??? How the f*ck are creed killing rock and roll as we know it?Prick, come back with facts next time you wanna preach, if creed are so bad why are you in a creed forum in the first place,never mind slaggin them off, you is a f*ckin moron
dplufc
I hate all you idiots (Tairy, Tony) who always go around acting like Creed is a Christian band.... They have proclaimed MANY times in interviews they are a spiritual band not a Christian band....
Lyrics from "Signs"
"This is not about age
Time served on the earth doesn't mean you grow in the mind
This is not about God
Spiritual insinuations seem to shock our nation"
Mark Tremonti and Scott Stapp have constantly tried to let people know they are not Christian... Get your facts straight before you come on here looking like an idiot.
Darren
hahahahah... Creed.
I loved their first album, but their second was pretty ordinary and Weathered was just sad in my opinion.
If they could have made the kind of music that was on My Own Prison I would probably still be a fan,
David
do not buy it,, it sucks there's 14 tracks does not sound like creed at all.........
rob
Hi
bro Icon't wait new album come on creed.
Nahum
@ Tairy Greene
Two frontmen from rock bands have sex with cheap groupies who have no self respect! oh no how immoral!!!!
This type of thing has been going on for years and has no effect on the bands or music they produce if your going to criticise one of the most influential bands of the past 20 years please come up with somethin slightly more relevant than the singer is a bad man because he got a blowjob off a slut (ps your a moron)
"the_god"
OMG! i can't wait for Creed new album. They are the reason why I love rock soo much. Much love to you Creed<3<3<3
Uniquelove
I've just finished my first full audition of "Full Circle" and their sound has evolved but has that same quintessential sound that makes them a great listen. 5+ stand out tracks IMO. In short, I love it.
Never managed to see the band live before, so I guess this could give me the chance. I, for one, am delighted to see the band back together again and hope they can somehow 'co-exist' with Alter Bridge - who I really like too.
Now for a 2nd listen.....
Pedro DB
Worst band of all time. Over produced crap that all sounds the same. Not only that, but they've produces sound-a-like bands like nickelback and 3 doors down, etc. All this stuff is so musically horrible that it's astounding. Have fun with this one douche bags.
Steve
All those who can't wait to get hold of Creed's Full Circle, I'm with you. I'm glad to have already heard it. Creed has always been my favoritest band. Be it compositions, lyrics, guitaring, drumming and vocals too; despite of all the bad mouthing that happens for Scott Stapp.
Full Circle - First impression: Oh My God this can't be them!
Full Circle - Repeated listening: Definitely not the best Creed can create but not complete garbage either.
Overcome and Rain are definitely the best tracks on the album. All the remaining tracks do not live up to the same standard. Other tracks which might end up showing up on most playlists (not that they are the best) could be
"away in silence"
"On my sleeve"
"Time"
"Full circle"
6/12 noteworthy tracks is not bad. However, Creed has been giving a lot more than a few mediocre tracks. If we compare Full Circle with their previous albums the full circle seems mediocre in all departments; be it Mark Tremonti's intricate melodious guitar solos or highest lyrical beauty, it is all missing in Full Circle. Scott Philips still manages to keep his class with the drums. Generally speaking all songs tend to look a lyrically amateur.
"A thousand Faces", "Good Fight", "the song you sing", Suddenly, fear and bread of shame are best unheard.
Full circle leaves you with this feeling,
the fact that creed reunited itself would have been a treat for all their fans. They didn't necessarily have to release an album along with their reunion.
Overall Star rating: 5/10
CreedFan
Cool, but Alter Bridge is so much better.
Lawrence
Ha, Alter Bridge would be better with Scot singing and keep having Mark write and compose practically everything.
Myles Kennedy sounds like a Wolf howling at the moon.
JoJo
Creed has to be one of the worst bands on the face of the Earth. They are a wannabe Nickelback which is incredibkt pathetic. This album is a disgrace to God. Creed uses the theme of Christianity to make people forget about how terrible their music is. Why couldn't they juststay retired? WHY?!?
Moses
JoJo your a f*ckin tool, alter bridge piss all over creed! scott stapp and his ego should have stayed on that cocaine binge. even tremontis playing sound held back on creed albums, in alter bridge he is a guitar god and in creed he is just your average guitar player
ALTER BRIDGE RULE!!!!
Bleedin_jono
The new album is terrible, and they did a bad performance on Regis and Kelly. Sounds like easy listening, not like Creed's hard funky rock of the past
Mike
Well, tt is finally time for for my opinion too. Creed has always, from the start been great with good songs and lyrics and more often than not, a good message just like Collective Soul, Some people are more easily persuaded by the critics and show their weak constitutions! If you don't care for any certain band, don't listen, don't buy! Everyone is human and we all have frailities!
Is this a bashing ground for mis-steps in human life? Crap, Amy Grant stole her current husband away from another married woman, and both are still doing great in the music field. Get over it! Just give credit due when it is warranted and it is definitely here on this album. It is almost euphoric and will take you "Higher:" if you let it!
Talk about 'clone bands"- Theory of a Dead Man is so close to Nickleback, they are hard to tell apart! "Meant to be" could be on a 3 Doors Down" album and you wouldn't know the difference. The thing is, they are a fantastic band in their own right and in some ways, better than the great band Nickleback, they are killer!. I know Kroegar wrote some and promoted them, but so have many others. Gene Simmons promoted House of Lords, which is friggn' great! Dokken promoted XYZ and even had them sound the same, still a great band.
Just listen to what it is, more great music. If ya don't like it- don't buy it or stop listening!
Headknocker
I think speak for everyone, ever, that we were all just waiting for you reasoned opinion on here headknocker. Thanks for the info! Also, Theory of a Deadman: Boosauces. I am right there with you.
This album straight up rocks. Great guitar work, powerful vocals, great songwriting. Music is subjective, but reviewers who are bashing this record are a little confused, or caught up in their hatred for the band to give it a true listen.
Blackbird
Alter Bridge rock! Bring on the next album!
Steve
So nice to see a mike in his hand instead of booze...Scott Stapp .. I love your voice, i love this band, i am one happy fan again!!!
wendie
Overall the album appears much more abstract than their previous efforts. Also Mark Tremonti plays several heavy guitar riffs. Great album although definitly not their best. "On My Sleeve" and "Overcome" are perhaps the two most memorable singles on the album. I give the album an 8 because although it sounds great I find it less deep than their "My Own Prison" album and less entertaining than "Weathered", however it falls comfortably in between. Great album I would highly recommend it. And quite frankly how could you not be excited about such a talented band getting back together. Alterbridge was a great band but in my mind Scott Stapp delivers the vocals that paired with Mark Tremonti's amazing musical talent create a winning combination.
LoLo
I was once a Creed fan myself, and now they are only found on any of my playlists because of Mark Tremonti and the fact that my kids still love them. Scott Stapp beyond a shadow of a doubt has a great voice and at times reminds me of Ronnie James Dio and even Geoff Tate of Queensryche (whithout the stage presence of either man by the way). The problem I have is that he has turned his back on the very people that have elevated him to "Rock God" status, his fans. Yet you all welcome him back with arms wide open (no pun intended there) like he has never wronged anyone. His antics off stage are almost as pathetic as him forgetting the lyrics to his own songs, singing the wrong lyrics to songs, and disappearing back stage and passing out on the couch. The self proclaimed "Demi God" is a mere shell of a man with a lot of pent up daddy issues, so I am curious to see what we will get this time around.
I can tell you now that I will not waste my money or time by going out and purchasing this new CD. Scott Stapp has turned his back on his very loyal fans and the simple fact that all of you welcome him back "With Arms Wide Open" is a testament to just how badly the "Machine" owns all of you. Beyond a shadow of a doubt Stapp has one of the better voices in what they call modern rock and roll. Mark Tremonti's guitar playing is overshadowed by the purely ignorant antics of the self-reincarnated lead singer. So what happens next? When does he pass out back stage? What city will he be in next time when he sings the wrong lyrics or forgets them? That is inexcusable as it is his only job, to sing and remember the damn lyrics. The only reason Creed has a spot on any of my playlists is to satisfy my children and I must admit, I enjoy hearing Tremonti playing his axe. What Scott Stapp will we see this time? The born again man who proclaimed himself to be a God? The mommy and daddy angst filled child? The rockstar who can't handle his own stardom and success? Or the arrogant, simpleton who fails to realize what a gift he has and forgets the very people who have lifted him to the status he has obtained?

Ok, I heard the Creed vs. Alterbridge debate enough that I felt compelled to post my feelings on this issue.
OK Creed and Alterbridge are the same band with different lead singers. Anyone who has seen Creed on this tour knows they added another touring Guitar player to fill out the sound. So there much like Alterbridge when Miles is playing guitar. So let just break it down to what really counts to the bands. Money poeple! Alterbridge - 2 CDs Total sales of less than 600K in sales. Huh! Creed around 35 milion and climbing as Full Circle sales keep on going.
As for the different syles between the bands. it hardly even up for debate, all the same players, just different singers again. As for who the masses like better I would guess by the sales of music it's Creed. Case Closed.
I like Creed better, but I also have both Alterbridge albums, but they lack something. Scott's voice. Both bands are great, Creed just pulls better sales. And all these comparisons to Pearl Jam, or Nickleback are just dumb. Stapp sings, Keoger Yells and Pearl Jam has so much verboto in there vocals I ccan't see one comparison......
Food for though....
Rick Hickey
FULL CIRCLE album's more rockin than other albums.........scott stapp heard more grungy voice,,,,,,,,,mark tremonti guitar's heard more skillfull........this album seems like "alter bridge" with another vocalist........no one band in this world can change CREED's music.........i miss religious lyrics like album MY OWN PRISON, HUMAN CLAY, and WEATHERED.........come to INDONESIA.....from indonesian CREED fans
edie heafy tremonti
i like your all album... Creed.. weathered. my own prison.. human clay.. Alter Bridge.. one day remains.. blackbird. and now new album Creed i like... full circle this album.. solo album scoot stapp.. My band play all songs... come to indonesia... Fans wait for you.....
cuya
Why can't anything be found anywhere on what i feel is the best song on Full Circle - Catch Me ?
B-Door-Man
what causes this "spiritual effect" u think
Drew
creed is probably by far is the greatest group of all by my opinion i love ALL of their songs form every album they are the greatest
Joshua
The album is overall an excellent bit of work for their first reunion piece and music will get better. Away in Silence is powerful, and inspirational piece (just can't get enough of the uplifting spirit behind this song's theme: don't give up on what/who you care about no matter what) it should have been named "Don't Walk Away". This my friends is pure signature Creed stuff.
Mike
This album is great. I have mutual respect for both Creed and Alter Bridge. I tend to like Alter Bridge a little more, but hey Creed is the s**t too! same people, but what i can not stand, is people that come in a forum just to talk s**t. they must have nothing better to do, than to judge others, when they could do no f***ing better. Stapp is Christian but yet he has publicaly stated numerous times that They all are religious whether they are christian or something else, but they do not want to be labeled as a christian band.
Another thing, I went to a Creed concert in Clemson , SC and it was my first concert. it blew me away. AMAZING! i went to see Stryper a week later and then the Trans Siberian Orchaestra. both Stryper and TSO together couldnt hold a match to going to see Creed again.
THE FEUD: STAPP VS. KENNEDY>>>>>> They ar both amazing singers. I personally like Myles a little better, he is older, his voice holds out longer, he hits highs and lows, plus he plays an instrument during all of this. Stapp has more growl and bite to his vocals. part of the reason he has trouble keeping up with his voice near the end of the tour, was because he was preserving his voice so he didnt get a cyst in his throat like he did at the end of the Weathered Tour.
Simply put, like what you like, get your facts straight, and if you are searching something you don't like just to bomb it, then get off the f***ing internet you stupid ass!
EJ Wise
Its good that they realised the international fame they cherished in the past has now become a binding force.. It's really good. In the near future we shall expect those melody they gave in the past.. They dont have to change their lineup- cuz this seems in 'Full Circle'
