Another Tremonti Album??? Really ???

[jripper420]

I love Tremonti's ability to play in Creed as well as Alter Bridge. I really didn't care for the Tremonti CD that came out last. Why is he set on singing when he really can't? I mean every song on the last Tremonti CD sounded cool musically but lets be honest, every song was autotuned and distorted so his voice sounded average. I don't understand his obsession with it. Had he hired another singer or brought in another vocalist from another band it would have been better. Alter Bridge and Creed are great with lyrics, Guitar and Vocals..Tremonti, not so much. If mark really wanted a challenge he'd work on writing a real creed CD instead of wasting time and effort on a CD that will only sell about 30,000 copies..Its a complete waste of his talents. Fortress was amazing, but unlike Tremonti Myles made the album with his vocals. If Mark put the same effort into creed as he did his own band that'd be a start..Also, enough with the Wolfgang Van Halen thing. Hes not his father and really has no business being in his band. Its just corny IMO...That is all....

I don't know. I found his vocals on Waters Rising to be pretty good and a nice contrast and change-up to Myles' voice.

I'm excited for this album and a good amount of people here are, and that it will set out what it will set out. It's bound to be a nice contrast to the AB and Creed albums, but still have those elements that he is known for, albeit a little more heavier and with him as the vocals (which are pretty good, at times) whether you agree or not.

As for Wolfgang, he's a good guy and all of that. His father and uncle are great musicians. It's just natural that he wanted to be a part of that as well and that it works for him. Mark just didn't pick Wolfie just because they are good buddies and all of that. It's because Mark believes that Wolfie A. fit well with the band and B. is a decent musician, in his own right, with a lot of room to grow.

- Sorry you feel that way. I love the "Tremonti" sound and I think his guitar tone works really well with his vocals.
- Myles didn't make the album with his vocals. It was the band as a whole that made the record and what it became. Without Mark Fortress would be a shit stain.
- Not about how many copies they sell. Its about the Rock N Roll \m/.
- Wolfgang is a pretty good bass player and has some really good vocals. I think he is going to add a serious element to the next Tremonti record
- I really like his old school Creed sound and maybe we could see some of that in Tremonti 2

Lol, who are you to say that Wolfie has no business being in Mark's band?

His heart is clearly in this band and not in Creed. To me, that's reason enough to record another Tremonti album. I'm not a huge fan of his voice either, but clearly people are enjoying it, so that's our loss I guess?

[AllC392Was]

Wolfie is very talented. Also gives the band good publicity.

Can we move this to the Tremonti 2 thread, mods? I feel like this guy is attention-seeking.

[AB23]

I haven't ever heard of anyone saying his vocals are bad. Most of my friends actually think that his voice sounds great in Waters Rising. This thread doesn't sound as much of a critique of Tremonti. It sounds like you are bashing him because of Stapp's recent interview.

We need a separate sub-forum titled "bitching/crying/trolling/attention seeking" for people to get things off their chests that nobody else cares about without bothering everyone else. Also it wouldn't hurt to have another Creed sub-forum titled: "For those of us who just can't let go"

[Lotha]

I'm not a fan of Mark's vocals personally, but I wouldn't go as far to say that he can't sing. Sure he can.

[Dolo]

that will only sell about 30,000 copies..

Well, supposedly Mark is not all about making money from music. You should take that into account.

Not trying to sound like a racist, but some people need to just let it happen.

Agree with what you said about making a new Creed record. But that would likely put Creed back to bigger than Alter Bridge which is a no no. He got enough money from the reunion to be set for a good while. Money isn't priority.
the rest is bunk. Tremonti has a good voice and hes improving. His vocals on Fortress are much more advanced than the All I Was vocals (that being said, All I Was is my favorote album ever)

[AHart96]

This is all I'm gonna say in this thread, because really it shouldn't have been made in the first place and just comes off as whiny. If you don't wanna hear another Tremonti record, don't buy it. Simple as that. But don't complain and ruin it for everyone else who is looking forward to it.

On to the whole "his voice was auto-tuned" thing..Personally, I don't really hear it. If you watch live videos as the tour progressed, you could hear his vocals were pretty damn close to studio version if you ask me.

And regardless of whether or not Creed comes out with a "real CD" as you say, if they ever do at all, I highly doubt it will sell more than 30,000 anyways. Creed's best days are behind them and their popularity, as well as the music business, is nowhere near what it was 10 years ago.

As for your points "unlike Tremonti Myles made the album with his vocals" and your bashing of Wolfgang, I honestly have no idea how to respond to them. Seems like complete ignorance to me, but what do I know?

"That's all I have to say that about that"

Full Circle sold 110,000 copies in the first week.....

Full Circle sold 110,000 copies in the first week.....

Which was back in 09. Things are different now compared to then too

[austin.]

Mp3s and Internet piracy was just as big back then.
Not gunna derail thread, sorry.

[AB4Lyfe]

There's still a bunch of fans who are faithful to Creed and I understand that, but I wouldn't want to make an album unless my whole heart was in it. If Mark's heart is more into his solo project than into Creed, then that's his decision and we should accept it.

[Decay]

Yeah, exactly ^^

[austin.]

Yeah, I personally don't want another Full Circle, if they've grown musically to not make another album on par with the first 3, ill pass.
I'm very excited for Tremonti II if he keeps melody the top priority.

The Creednation forums are looking for new members.. Maybe you could get over there.
