NEW YORK — The band Creed has decided to call it quits after eight years together. The group has released three albums —My Own Prison, Human Clay, Weathered— selling more than 30 million worldwide.

"It's kind of sad to end a chapter of your life, but it's also exciting to be starting a new one," said MarkTremonti, Creed songwriter and guitarist.

Creed songwriter and guitarist Mark Tremonti says he's formed a new band named Alter Bridge with Creed's drummer Scott Phillips, Creed's original bassist Brian Marshall and former Mayfield Four singer and songwriter Myles Kennedy.

"It's kind of sad to end a chapter of your life, but it's also exciting to be starting a new one," Tremonti said. "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."

Creed songwriter and singer Scott Stapp hopes to release his first post-Creed recording August 31. The album will include compositions by several artists inspired by the film The Passion of the Christ. He also plans to continue work with producer 7 Aurelius and Canadian rockers The Tea Party to work on his solo debut.

"I made memories I can never replace," Stapp said. "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."

Wind-up Records plans to release Creed Greatest Hits by the end of the year.

Forked tongues in bitter mouths
Can drive a man to bleed from inside out
