You can tell that Mark still has a certain level of anger towards how AB was treated in their early days. And I don’t blame him. It’s been hard as fuck for them as AB to not be criticized as Creed 2.0 in the states
Nothing against Creed, but Alter Bridge is a much better band. This comes from someone who loved Creed back in the day.
I still love pretty much all the Creed songs, but when comparing the two you need to remember that Tremonti now has a lot of song writing experience under his belt he didn't back then. And Alter Bridge is a bit more metal than Creed ever was. Scott Stapp can still write great songs too, but has quite a different sound. Still, ABs latest album isn't that far off from Creed imo.
I agree but I prefer Stapps lyrics and raw grunge sound. Myles has one helluva voice plus guitar skills but I just can’t get into it AB like I did Creed. I met Myles and Tremonti when they first formed the band and did a free concert downtown Raleigh NC. Super nice dudes! It was weird seeing Tremonti play in front of a small crowd versus the huge Creed crowds. Glad to see both bands were/are successful.
Trimontis guitar tone sounds cheap but really there is No comparison. AB for life.
much prefer creed but AB are good also
2 sides of the same coin. It’s the same band minus the singer and Tremonti does solos now. That’s about it. Creed had more commercial songs which is why they were so huge. Alter Bridge still has that Creed sound but the songs aren’t as commercial. No doubt Myles Kennedy has better vocal range than Scott Stapp but that distinctive growl can’t be misplaced and was perfect, at the time, for Creed.
It’s the same band….but not the same band. Yeah…..something like that…..
It’s crazy how much his guitar playing has developed since being in Creed
In truth, Creed was a huge comercial band, just lookin' at Wind Up records, I think Mark never used all his skills on Creed, I've imagined that just listening to "Pity For a Dime'' and it was their fisrt record.
But creed had multi million hits where as AB never have
@@way-rp4pi real music lovers don't care about million hits
@@mrtiesthatbind you don't need big solos in songs for them to be great. AB fans think you do
@@way-rp4pi nope but all of ABs solos are fucking better than in creed...Even with Myles , his solos create a new dynamic as well...Creed wont ever come close to AB
Due to the success of Creed Alter Bridge was always presented as Creed 2.0 and that really was sad because they are nothing like creed. I believe mark and the others founded their true style with alter bridge. My luck was that I didn’t even know about Creed because like mark said they were not known in Europe. The first time I listened to Blackbird, love at first listen man
the sound of creed still lives on alter bridge. the different is the new vocalist.
@@BakuranTV you might want to clean your ears since both bands sound very different
@@BakuranTV Both bands are completely different. Get your ears checked.
@@mrtiesthatbind Play the song "Broken Wings" by Alter Bridge, and then play "My Sacrifice"... the chorus of both are exactly the same... THEN, put on "Open You Eyes" by Alter Bridge, and then play "Higher" by Creed... the chorus is almost the same! lol
@@mrtiesthatbind I think as time has gone on they have evolved and found their own sound, but in the beginning, it was very similar.
Is there anywhere I can find this full interview?
Why is Scott Stapp portraying Frank Sinatra when you've got a perfectly good Mark Tremonti right here??
They are both great bands. Some people have different tastes. We don't need to compare the two so much.
Well imo Creed is in my favorite bands list and they don’t deserve the hate they get but I guess it’s cool to be on the hate train.The whole Human Clay album is amazing only like 3 songs I don’t like the rest are amazing
They redeemed themselves with Alter Bridge. Whatever negative stigma they had because of Scott Stapp is long gone now.
Creed just came back :v
And here comes the stigma back to Alter Bridge.
@@timtam79Not really. They’ve been established longer. A lot of creed fans have moved on.
@@carpenoctem775 I hope you're right.
Alter Bridge is what happens when your record label/lead singer doesn't hold you back.
Im just gonna say this. Myles Kennedy singing Creed songs and making it his own will elevate them to a higher stratosphere
Eddie reminds me of Stewart from beavis and butthead all grown up lol
Eddie has the goofball vibe going on.
Creed is obviously the better band. Tremonti is at his best when working with Stapp, and same for Scott.... its been proven already. Creed was ready for stadium shows before they broke up. Europe was next.
if Myles sang a Creed song he would make it sound more bigger and epic than what it originally is but would be weird because of Scott's religious lyrics having Myles to sing them wouldn't fit the AB atmosphere.
I don't agree, Scott's voice is more powerful than Myles but I love them both. They are very different, unique but Creed was my first love and to this day I listen at least one song during the day😉
@@pat3743 Stronglyyyy disagree on Scott's voice being more powerful. Imo it doesn't even get close. Cheers!
Pat Ka Scott Stapp has a voice which Myles Kennedy doesn’t come close to. Scott Stapp is an amazing front man! The emotions and the feeling when you watch Creed is completely different than when you watch Alter Bridge not even closeI Miles Kennedy has an good voice but it always sounds the same..What I mean is I use music as a way to heal, work through things and when I listen to Alter Bridge and try to like them Myles Kennedy’s voice is good but it doesn’t do anything for me. Creed and Alter Bridge are completely different bands and Creed in their Hayday touched millions! . Alter Bridge has their own sound. I have tried to like them especially since they are all the members of creed minus the lead singer. There are still many Creed fans out here just like you guys are alter Bridge fans and imagine all of a sudden they broke up and went away. I remember Creed well.. I remember how much their music has helped me..I remember being in the front row of a concert in 2009 and being blown away by this band. In fact I have Mark Tremonti’s pic from the concertI I understand Mark Tremonti’s reason for needing to move on but they left a lot of fans in their dust...And mind you these are the fans that made Creed famous and allowed the members who are no longer in Creed to move on to Alter Bridge and already known. If feels like a slap in the face. I know I’m being selfish but I miss Creed.
However, since I know what it feels like to love a band I’m happy for Alter Bridge fans
Nah, some songs would work, but many wouldn't. Beautiful, My Own Prison and such wouldn't work at all with Myles' voice imo. But I bet Beautiful with Myles coming in on the chorus would be .. beautiful.
Yup because Myles can easily cover any creed song if he wanted to tbh and make it sound good. Stapp probably couldn’t do that with some AB songs.
I prefer Creed, I can't get around Myles voice. Creed has more better songs and you can't deny how Stapp nailed those powerful vocals on 3 records especially in Human Clay album. The only thing about Creed was the absence or less guitar solos, nonetheless the songs are heavy as hell.
100% agree. Creed was only missing more guitar solos and heavy riffs. A modern Creed record would be amazing as Mark's guitar playing is much better now than the 90's, lot's of heavy riffs and solos. Scott has re discovered some of his old voice so I think on a studio album he would sound much better than 2009. Mark has left Creed fans in the dust. He clearly prefers playing with AB which is a shame. I like AB and they have some great songs but for me they have never come close to Creed for hits or having as big of an impact on the music scene. There was something special about Creed's music that is hard to describe, the songs meant a lot to people. I think Myles for as good of a vocal range he has an is no doubt a better live performer than Stapp (now-Stapp was great in the past), Myles lacks the charisma and stage presence Stapp brings and doesn't have the same energy. I have seen AB play live many times and sadly their fan base has a lot of Creed and Stapp haters, often they are bitter due to AB's lack of commercial success compared to Creed. I actually went to a Tremonti show before and was hated on for being a big Creed fan. Some of AB fanbase are sad people. But I am a proud Creed and Stapp fan and didn't care what they said to me.
I’m completely the opposite way but I understand why y’all prefer creed. They were absolutely massive in their prime
dood show me a song by creed that will ever come close to Blackbird and then we will talk
Creed is fucking awesome id say I listen to Creed WAY more .First 2 albums hold up greatly! What if is top 10 all time favorite songs whole damn human clay album is amazing
Scott Stapp is starring as Frank Sinatra in the upcoming Reagan biopic. His vocal range is about the same, and he sounds kinda like him- he stopped smoking too so his voice is smoother for the most part- the snail in the throat is gone and he can growl that’s it. I’ve always seen Creed as lyrically and musically better than Alter Bridge more consistently across songs in their albums, but some of Alter Bridge’s songs in their albums just aren’t good AB material, though I like most of their songs. Myles had a struggle with faith like Scott when he was younger- but later became more of an atheist, “Turning Stones to see what I can find” being haunted by the “ghost of shangri-la”(ghost of paradise).
Creed is way better myles looks and sounds like a crying lion lol
He needs Jesus
Mark is a Catholic
alter bridge is trash. scott was the soul.
Scott is the main reason why Creed is in the dustbin and falls into oblivion
@@mrtiesthatbind true. He made them and he destroyed them.
I’m biased towards AB obviously but putting that aside, as great as creed was in its prime Alter Bridge is MILES better than creed ever was musically. Hell tremonti’s solo band clears creed too imo
