Creed's Windup Contract

OK so this project is over pretty much. But what sucks is their contract.. I'm pretty sure Creed couldve made more records , they only did 3 for crying out loud.

I heard that their record deal was for 3, and WU had the option to renew and they did...for 4 more.

I'm guessing that they probably renegotiated them to have their projects count towards the "creed" total.

Creed has a 7-record deal with Wind-up.

3 then renew for 4 = 7

OK, so check my math:
3 record deal: My Own Prison, Human Clay, Weathered
4 record renewal - Solo projects counting: AlterBridge, Stapp, Creed Compilation

What am I missing? I only count 3 counting towards the 4. What is the other one?

Alter Bridge's or Stapp's next album? just as long as there is not another greatest hits package on top of the compilation album. it better not become the farce that has become of the constant AIC greatest hits releases (no offence dogstar! ) they have almost as many greatest hits albums as studio albums.

I hate to disagree with you my friend, but that Weathered crap as you call it , got more airplay than any of their previous cd's. I liked it.

There were somethings about Weathered that I liked compared to the other albums...some I didn't. I don't think the "I love/I hate Weathered" "discussion" will ever die. :lol


Maybe the mystery #7 will be the DVD...wouldn't that be nice.

Who cares if it got more airplay? I thought it was the first nail in Creed's coffin... commercialized, pop-ized, and lyrically flat/repetitive. Musically it was not-too-bad, though.

Definately their worst offering.

Colin: you're missing the DVD.

It was supposed to happen, but then 4 "fans" decided to sue their band...

I'm still not holding my breath for the compilation CD, although that would be a great way to delay the news of the breakup and milk some more money out of the fans.
