Quote: (Originally Posted by XALTERBRIDGEX) There is some simularities between "Open Your Eyes" and Creed but no way in hell can Scott come close to hitting the notes Myles hit on that album. Plus Mark had alot more freedom to do what he wanted, I think the overall album had no link to Creed unreleased material on it. Now Stapps solo album was Creed lite, it sounded like a shitty garage Creed Cover band made an album.

Ill have to totally disagree with you for several reasons...One Day Remains was heavily influenced by Creeds music and "Open your Eyes" is just one example..Plus the album was mixed by windup which gave it more of a Creed sound...The biggest difference was Myles voice which has higher range than Stapps Baritone and Myles ability to play guitar which led to longer, more technical solos that were not possible in the Creed format...I think with Blackbird they shed that creed sound and vibe and reinvented themselves as I cannot compare much on Blackbird to any Creed CD...In my Opinon Blackbird was a rebirth away from Wind up's grotesque commericialism over quality that began after the release of Human Clay and remains today...Look how good of a band Seether is and Windup is having them do covers of George Micheal...Give me a break...not a bad cover but come on windup originality please...
