Formed in 1995, from Tallahassee, Florida, Creed was an American post-grunge band that became popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The band formed after Scott Stapp and Mark Tremonti, friends at Florida State University and high school classmates at Orlando's Lake Highland Preparatory School, decided to form a band, recruiting Brian Marshall and Scott Phillips to complete the quartet in late 1995. The band was originally called "Naked Toddler", then was called "Maddox Creed" but was changed to "Creed" by suggestion of Marshall and agreed to be the final naming. The four members had already written and collaborated three of the songs that would go on to become tracks on their chart-topping debut album My Own Prison. The songs were "One", "Sister" and "What's This Life For".
Creed won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Song for the song "With Arms Wide Open" in 2001. The band broke up in 2004 after three multi-platinum albums, selling 26 million records in the United States. In late 2008, rumors began circulating that Creed was planning a 2009 reunion, but they have since been dismissed by Michael Tremonti, Alter Bridge's fan liaison.
In April 2009, however, the official Creed website was re-launched, and a video stating 'coming summer 2009' was posted on the home page, which now confirms the bands are to reunite. However, the terms of such a reunion are still unclear.
Albums:
2004: Greatest Hits
2001: Weathered
1999: Human Clay
1997: My Own Prison

Creed is pretty good. All of their songs are very good I especially like the song one last breath.
