creed trennen sich

[Captain Charisma]

jo ,dass stand heute leider auf mtv.de


Nach acht Jahren kollektiven Rockens haben Creed die Nase voneinander voll. Da nutzen auch 24 Millionen verkaufte Alben nichts...
Die Entscheidung für einen Split wurde bereits vor Monaten getroffen, als Gitarrist Mark Tremonti und Sänger Scott Stapp nach einer kreativen Pause wieder aufeinander trafen und sich neue Probleme anbahnten.

'Wir haben uns zwei, drei Mal getroffen, aber nix geschah', erklärte Tremonti den Kollegen von mtv.com, 'Wir hatten unsere Instrumente und spielten, aber keiner von uns nahm es ernst. Wir bewegten uns im Kreis. Die Vibes der letzten Platte waren verschwunden. Es fühlte sich plötzlich wie normale Arbeit an. Wir wussten, es würde Jahre dauern, bis wir ein Album fertig haben würden.

Hier das Statement vom offiziellen Creed Newsletter:

Dear Creed Fans,
The following information will be released to the news media later today, but we wanted you to hear it first:

SCOTT STAPP AND MARK TREMONTI READY NEW MATERIAL FOR FIRST POST-CREED RELEASES

One of the most successful songwriting partnerships and groups in the history of the music business disbands after nearly a decade together.

June 4th -- After nearly a decade together, Creed has decided to disband. During their 8 years and 3 albums together (My Own Prison, Human Clay, Weathered) Creed achieved countless Rock & Roll milestones and sold over 30 million albums worldwide. With their unprecedented success at radio and their captivating live shows, Creed became one of the most successful acts to rule the charts over the past ten years.

Creed songwriter/ guitarist Mark Tremonti has decided to join forces with Creed drummer Scott Phillips, original Creed bassist Brian Marshall and former Mayfield Four singer/ songwriter Myles Kennedy. The new band, named Alter Bridge, will release their debut album on Wind-up Records on August 10th of this year. Expect a promotional acoustic tour of radio stations later this Summer, followed by a worldwide tour to begin in late August or early September.

Creed songwriter / singer Scott Stapp has been busy in the studio writing and recording over the past several months. His first post-Creed recording will be featured on an album coming on August 31st via Wind-up Records that will pool together superstar talent, as they individually offer compositions inspired by the film The Passion of the Christ. Simultaneously to tracking his contributions to the Passion title, Stapp will continue to work with producer 7 Aurelius, and has joined forces with Canadian rockers The Tea Party to work on his solo debut.

On the dissolution of Creed, Tremonti commented, “It’s kind of sad to end a chapter of your life, but it’s also exciting to be starting a new one. We’ll always be proud of the music we made with Creed, but Alter Bridge gives me the opportunity to start over with a different perspective and a more evolved direction. This band begins and ends with the love of the music.” Phillips continues, “Creed was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but I’m really excited to be starting over as well. The most significant things that we are taking from the Creed experience are the lessons that we learned. We truly believe that the decisions we’ve made for our future are the right ones. After writing and rehearsing the new material, we are confident that we’ve made the right choices.”

Stapp shared, “Creed was one of the most amazing journeys through music and friendship I am blessed to say I was a part of. I made memories I can never replace! I just want to thank the fans who supported us and became a part of the Creed experience. We could not have accomplished anything without you!(fans).”

Also in 2004, Wind-up Records will be releasing a Creed Greatest Hits compilation. Details will be made available as plans for the album take shape.

10 Jahre gute Musik sind vorbei, schade. Ich habe alle drei Alben und eins besser als das andere.
