CREED: The Rock Tribune interview with Mark Tremonti
Plain and simple, you either love CREED or you hate them…but facts are facts. Not only do they have a Grammy notch on their belt, they have also sold more than 40 million albums to date. And maybe, just maybe, the last band to successfully sell CD’s in stores before the digital revolution. For myself, it was an honor to speak with Mark Tremonti, part of the duo of songwriters that includes Scott Stapp. Listen below as we go over the new album and tour, talk about CREED’s past, and chat about the amazing power of Twitter.

Hey Randy,
Creed Need is a really popular youtube channel, not a set of fans bro. Alot of us fans like the CN youtube channel and CN twitter because they give out all the Creed news.
Like Mark just said in your interview Creed sites are not giving the information because they are under the label control. Not that long ago Mark told us fans on twitter that the band was unhappy with the way the label was handling social media and Mark told us to go to Creed Need.

If you listen…I say “your Creed Need fans…” Which means fans of Creed Need…I know that it is a youtube channel and twitter site. I did not mean to offend anyone, and I sincerely apologize.
February 1, 2012 at 10:11 pm
Dude you didnt offend at all, I was just letting you know about it. I thought you didnt know and that you thought that was some fan group.
Actually too, the guys who do Creedneed for Creed never talk to fans. They just churn out information like crazy so people dig it since they are not getting it from the label like Mark said.
