It's not perfect, but still WAY better than any performance by Creed from 2009 to 2012. They're at least trying to be faithful to the original material, which is always commendable. I hope Creed steps it up next year. Bringing back his clean old tone would be a nice step in the right direction, but ...

Happy 50th birthday to Scott Stapp!

Look at the current success of Limp Bizkit and Blink-182, who were at their creative peak during the same time as Creed (1999-2001). The latter are bigger than ever and making a fortune in 2023. Just like Creed, it looked like they had major internal issues and that a reunion was impossible. Yet, th...

Great news: Stapp's got a new solo album coming. https://youtu.be/DEd0eV2sjiQ Music producer Joel Wanasek reacts to "Purpose For Pain" by Scott Stapp, originally mixed by Chris Baseford on the album “The Space Between The Shadows.” And in the comments, he says this: Yes I mixed 4 songs off...

It's a good idea for a part 2, but man, it's such a bummer that he didn't record those songs which would have suited his voice like a glove:
- I'll Be Home For Christmas
- The Christmas Waltz
- It Came Upon A Midnight Clear
- Silent Night

AB and all the other projects are all poorly managed, and their PR and videos are not at the level where they should be. Creed used to properly managed and promoted: say what you want about Wind-up Records, but they knew how do to their job, and they were one of the reasons the band became so big ba...

All in all, it's good news.
I just hope it leads to bigger and better things. Fingers crossed!

Apparently, it's not available yet.

Here is an excerpt of Natalie Imbruglia's Torn cover by Scott Stapp:

If they do it for the right reasons, why not? If they want it to work this time, they'll have to do the exact opposite of what they did from 2009 to 2012 though. And by that, I mean : - work on their inner band relationships first and foremost: if they put the drama under the rug as they did in 2008...

Here's a full show.
The band seems to have a great time.


If you want a laugh, look at what happens at the 25th minute with the mic stand.
Stapp's got some skills!

Who knows?
Maybe he works behind the scenes in the Nashville music industry and does a couple of concerts from time to time in the week-end, like many artists these days.
It just costs too much to tour extensively if you're not that big.

I'm wondering what Stapp has been doing with his time during the last 3 years. Everybody's back on the road or releasing albums. As far as I know, he's played a handful of public shows during the last year, as well as some private ones. Is music still his main thing, or does he do something else wit...

I believe there is also another interview where he mentions have watching documentaries on cults having been inspiration for this song. You're thinking about Indoctrination: 7. Indoctrination Direct Quote from Myles: "It is about a really bad cult leader. Where it came from was actually a Netf...

Indeed, they lost a great opportunity to make a fun video with Holiday. I'm still convicned this could have been a huge career boost for them.

I doubt it sounds any better, to be honest. There was a time when a more dynamic source was used for vinyl, but it's becoming very rare. These days, since it's faster and more convenient, the same master will be used for everything : CD, vinyl, digital files, cassettes... If you use the same master ...

In this video, he talks about the birth of With Arms Wide Open.
Weirdly enough, he says he thinks about each one of his THREE kids every time he plays it.
Which means he doesn't think about the one kid if was written for.

A couple of songs from a recent show at Sea World Orlando.

Nah, he's never explained why his voice was so bad in 2009.
Why would he, anyway?
It's a thing of the past, and he's now one of the rare singers who can almost sing as well at 50 years old as when he was in his prime.
Look at the future, and don't dwell on the past.

It's at the 13th minute.
Good performance, as usual.

I'm now wondering when he will start promoting his next album. We haven't seen much of him during the last 3 years.
Maybe he's waiting for his AoA suit to be over before moving on to the next chapter of his career.
