Full Circle (with Bonus DVD) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a long time Creed fan (I had MOP the day it released, and every subsequent album- I've seen Creed in concert 3 times). I was really disappointed when Stapp and Creed broke up. Then I saw the reunion announcement, and I was excited to hear the "new sound", and couldn't wait to buy the album. Let me tell you, if you like Creed, this is a must have for your music library. This is not Alter-Bridge- it's distinctly Creed, but a different Creed than on "Human Clay" (Which I also enjoyed). It seems they have found some sac again and anted up with some sweet rock attitude.
Stapp's lyrics are as inwardly reflective as usual - however, I think he uses more of his voice range in this album vs. past efforts. Tremonti comes through and delivers some raging guitar and tasty licks. Howard Benson's producing is again top-notch...you can definitely feel it's a Benson album straight away.
While I'm not a huge fan of "Bread of Shame" (and yes, I like my rock to rock hard), the rest of the album is quality music. I was pleased to hear more acoustic guitar, and even happier to hear the volume of Stapp's voice nicely matched with Tremonti's guitar. After all, what makes rock rock is a rebellious Strat (or in this case, PRS) cranked up to 11 and screaming.
In short, if your looking for more "Arms Wide Open", you might want to take a pass. If you liked "Bullets", this one will stay in your CD changer for awhile. I know it'll be in mine.
