I'm pretty sure Wind-up owns the rights, similar to how AB went. Creed would be a fortune to buy back.

But, yeah. They should leave Wind-Up. They're a sinking ship, financially. As are most record labels but WU is worse off than most.

And I'm not sure if the guys truly care enough to buy it or continue on, really. Creed will probably just be their 'every five year thing just to keep the fans happy' kind of deal imo.

Did they have a 5 album deal? It's possible. And I'm sure Stapp still likes them, they still support him pretty well. Stapp is their golden boy. TGD went platinum and their was a gain in profit from the Creed tour. He's always been friends with the execs I think.
