I'm not really sure that there should even be this argument.
But I will throw my 2 cents in anyway.
Alter Bridge certainly sounds like Creed at points. This is entirely understandable as it is 3/4 of the original band playing the music. Myles is not a Scott clone. At first listen of OYE I thought he was but he could hit high notes. After listening to the rest of the album he certainly is not a Scott clone and has many assets that Scott didn't. Don't get me wrong, I still love Scott and will support his projects but Myles adds something different, hence being called Alter Bridge and not continuing on as Creed.
As for RL, I thought it was a little dull. It's growing on me but it didn't strike me as much as OYE did at first. I think the final verdict will be determined when Scott releases his first solo album, until then Alter Bridge is playing with a stacked deck. 11 songs to 1.
OYE vs. RL
my decision goes to OYE.
